Some folks get in too much of a hurry, "Waking Up" old or siezed small engines.
I'm of the opinion that,once freed up, you literally CAN'T spin em' up "Cold" long enough to do ought but good,...e.g. plug(s) out and cylinder(s) WET with the skunk pizz of choice,......I'm not saying one should burn up a starter, either.
Just "woke up" a nice old Kohler that's sat forever,.....been running it in GENTLY, at low RPMs for days now,.......between Sea Foam and diesel poured into it and some obvious wear, it was smoking at first,......not much smoke at all, this evening,.....
Not saying that'll always work, either. Coastal salt rust is pretty onerous, and final.
