XKR - Sitting 4 Yrs - Needs Fuel Tank Cleaning and Cam Chain Tensioners
2000 XKR 55K Miles. I need guidance on what to drain or replace since car has been in storage with only fuel additive in 2.4 full tank. Battery Tender died and battery needs re-charge, and cam chain tensioner needs replacement. Should I drain tank and all related items ie fuel filters, fuel pump. or should FF, & FP be replaced?

I've fired up a lot of long dead engines without doing much until I know what they needed. Old school for decades dead engines was see if it would turn over , then pop the plugs and let the starter turn it over to check for spark, get some fuel up the carb and let the oil pump do it's thing. If everything checks out, plugs in and fire it off.
4 year old efi engine, charged battery and let fly.
