not runing

Why didn't you say that in the first place! That tid-bit of info isn't a little thing. If it sat under salt water for that long you will have to swap more than the engine. The frame and everything else is gonna rust from the inside out. EVERYTHING is either toast or on its way.

Drain the crankcase and fill it, and the top end with Marvel Mystery Oil. Let it sit for a couple days, and drain it out, you can crank it over a little by hand before you fill the top end, this will help clean the engine. You may also have corrosion in places you shouldn't (duh obvious). Bummer all the way around.

Soak it in hot tap water for another 2 weeks to remove any salt residue.
