Those old furnaces are bulletproof.
The only thing that can fail is power generator, what is like 5 part, so unless corrosion eat them, they will run forever without spending 120 for computer board. Lighting up the pilot is only inconvenience.
Any smell will go out eventually.
Couple years I bought convertible that had heavy cigarette smell inside.
3 days with open doors on driveway cured 95 of it and with time all went away.
Yes, they are bulletproof. But, good new is, they do NOT have an Ignition module. So, like you stated, clean it out and the furnace will only smell for a few days. Doug
