sticky valves 850 1997

I just had to have my wrench hook my 97 850 (91k)up to a jump box to get it to turn over. Apparently, because it sat idle in my driveway for two weeks, the carbon deposits gummed up a couple of valves, and the lifters lost their oil presure from not being driven. Has anyone else had this problem in any model/year? I've let it sit before a few weeks at a time and never had this problem.

Also, my trunk lock just had to be replaced. It stopped locking. $280 so no one can steal my spare...oh well!
