Default NEW to the Jaguar

Good Day,
I'm a new owner of an XJS V12.. Long Island New York, USA. The Car has been sitting for 4 years. (at least) . I couldn't let the owner (1st and only) junk it. I gave him junk yard value and towed it home. Drained fuel, Changed filter, and then found out the fuel pump is locked up.
Replacing the fuel pump tonight, Adding fresh fuel.. oils and coolant are nice and clean. Is there anything I should be aware of before our first start?
Thank you in advance.
Harold
