Default new old jeep cherokee

I just inherited a jeep cherokee sport, that has been setting up since 2006 because of a bad heater core which was bought but never installed. not a dent or anything broke that I can see so far. Water was drained and battery removed. I am going to remove plugs and put in some marvel mystery oil in each cylinder to soak the rings before I try to start it up. it has a 4.0 liter in-line six which I believe is a good motor. it has over 200,000 miles mostly highway miles on it. any suggestions on anything that would save me headaches would be most appreciated. Thanks
