Haven't started her in 3 years, what should I do?

Hi,

I haven't started my FD3S in over 3 years. Are there precautions I should be taking before I attempt to turn her over? I have heard things from mechanics such as "Carbon Locking", changing the coolant and dumping the old fuel before I attempt to turn her over. I've also heard that the oil seals might be dry rotted now. I'd like to be as careful as possible as she only has about 70K km's logged. Any and all input would be highly appreciated.
