Gunked carbs are usually the big problem with long standing engines. Presumably you have stripped them and cleaned the idle passages. the other worry is if it was last stopped cold is water (just a trickle from combustion) in a cylinder rusting up the rings and making a circular bore scar. If it turned over without being stuck that is a good sign.
Agree with the plugs out and spin suggestion
