Suggest that the motor needs the compression checked first.
That should get you going. If you have fuel and spark it aughta make noise, the lifters are without oil and collapsed, thus no valve action.
Crank for 30 seconds and wait 60, repeat and it ill start up. Woody

Tried 5 or 6 times, battery got kinda weak (new last fall) so I put the charger on it.
It kinda sputted at me 2-3 times, only at the very first start of the 30 seconds, maybe on the 3rd and 4th try.
Sure spins over well... it didn't seize up.
