I've recently viewed a bunch of YouTube videos by mustie1. Here's one, in which he repairs an old generator that hasn't run for years --
In other videos that I've seen, he takes mopeds, motorcycles, and a variety of things with small engines, and gets them running, even some with frozen engines. He goes through the basics, checking that there is spark, fuel, and compression. I'm amazed that he can start with an engine that's completely locked up, and wind up with something that runs pretty well. Of course, maybe he's unsuccessful sometimes, and doesn't post those experiments.
He gives a running commentary while he's working on the engines, and takes pains to get the camera angle so the viewer can see what he's doing.
