On any old motor such as that, you should expect to have to replace all the rubber hoses, and clean the carburetor. Also pull the flywheel and examine the ignition system. Might need new coils. Clean and set the breaker points, if nothing else. Finally, a new water pump impeller is a must.

But before you do anything, check the compression and give it a good visual going-over to make sure you have something worth messing with.

A picture or model number would help identify it.
