If it has been sitting for only a year and a half, maybe there is gas still in there. Take a can just in case. Shouldn't need starting fluid though. I think your on the right track to getting it running.---------------------------------------------------

You should be good with what you have. Take a few gallons of fresh gas, and put that in the tank before you try to start it.Jim DeAngelis

a couple of sqirts of ATF in each cylinder a couple of days before you try to turn over the engine
and turn the engine by hand first(6-8 times) before using the starter
before using the starter disconnect the fuel pump and then crank the engine til you have oil pressure (or until light goes out)
then install plugs,connect fuel and try starting the truck
maybe change the oil, due to water condensation
and check condition of coolant and belts and hoses
all of this after you see above post suggestions^^^^^^^^
