Yikes, but what do you have to lose. Change the oil and filter and prefill the filter with oil before you screw it back on. I would pull the fuel filter and install a new one, and try to drain the gas from the tank and maybe at the fuel rail. Fresh plugs. Put in some Sunoco 94 and a large can of techron. If it is a manual, maybe put it in third gear and push it to make sure the engine is not seized.
Oh, and get a new battery. Good luck.
