I am starting my car on Sat and it hasnt moved from its carcoon since I got back from Ford Fair, are their any checks to do to be on the safe side.

Disconnect fuel injectors and crank over for 30s first, to build up oil pressure. Reconnect injectors and fire up. The top end will likely sound noisey for a few minutes, as all the oil will have drained out of lifters etc.
