"Sat for years without a touch..." That's why.
Try: Pull the plugs, pour a bit of MMO or some other cylinder top oil in the cylinders, let it sit for a bit and then use a breaker bar/socket on the crank nut and start working it back and forth until it moves freely.

You should pull the fuel tank and get it boiled out or steam-cleaned, but at least replace all fuel filters and all the rubber fuel lines (gasohol degrades them), and blow out the hard lines. Then when you put fresh fuel in the tank, first mix in some 2-stroke oil, which will help give the poor engine a chance.
