Always a good idea when an engine has been standing and before you try to turn it over, to remove the plug and squirt in a good dose of lubricant, wait a while, then gently turn it a few degrees back and forth. If it moves feely, go for a gentle rotation, then refit the plug and proceed as normal. A good precaution against ring damage etc if a bit of rust has formed in the bore.
