I pull the Oil Pressure sender and back fill the oil rifles an other passages/oil pump with a garden sprayer and adapters to screw into the block.
Cummins, in the shop manual, recommend on a engine that has set a while to pull the 12 volt power to the fuel solenoid so the engine cant start.....then crank the engine to build oil pressure.
Be ready for a almost instant start when you hit the start button. If all is well, the engine wont mess around...its running, so be ready.
