    Advise on starting a engine that has been sitting for unknown amount of time

    I think what your doing is good, don't know if the motor is rusted up or anything else With plugs out see if the starter will crank it over If it will crank over then see if it will start using a gas can. If it starts and runs do the complete run thru as Scott mentioned

    4.3 cranks idles but dies.

    Unplug switch and put jumper across the terminals. When key is turned ON pump will start to run. If this fixes the issue then its the switch. Don't leave jumper there it's for testing only and not safe to leave i that way
