May need a clean up and maybe some new gaskets but they don't wear out sitting on a shelf.

Mine sat 4 years. Dumped some gas down the vent tubes and let is sit for an hour, then fired the car up. No problem.

As long as it was drained it should be fine. Ran one that sat without draining (but had ethanol free gas in it) after sitting for nine years and didn't do a thing to it. Oh yeah and call Ripley's I put two filters on the line and ran the rest of the nearly full tank of gas out too. Drained one and it sat for over a year, just needed the bowl screws tightened up as gas poured in the vent tubes came right back out. Might want to see if they're a little loose from the gasket drying.
