I wonder if a solenoid that's stored for a long time deminishes in function?

Not likely, it will become aesthetically ugly long before corrosion makes the solenoid nonfunctional.

If the plunger moves (or can be cleaned to move) smoothly, and the leads show several ohms resistance (with the value going up at the end of its stroke), then the part is good.
