    Turn it over by hand and look for birds nests and evidence of critters and what not in the moving parts area of the engine bay. Disconnect the ECI fuse or unplug the fuel pump and put standard oem weight / viscosity oil in it and turn it over for 5-10 seconds or so a few times to get the oil moving around in there again. Plug the ECI fuse back in and reconnect the fuel pump harness and fire it up. Go for an hour drive or so and open it up and comeback and recheck the timing and the condition of the belts. If everything is all good you should be in business.
