its probally out of time. check timing on it and make sure that none of the valves are stuck open cause sitting that long they very well could be. look at that first

adding oil to the cylinders wouldnt hurt just no more then a few squirts in each one and have you done the usual testing (spark, fuel, compression) make sure you have all those before anything else
