Hi there,

Just drain the oil, and take the plugs out, squirt a little oil in each cylinder and with the oil replaced crank over till oil pressure is up, replace the fuel filter and you may have to clean out the carby as it will have dried out and it could be a bit fuzzy in side, that should be enough for the engine side of things, post here for more info if required.
