Crank motor without starting

[catch-22]

G'day,

I need to kick the motor over to build oil pressure before it starts. I'm sure there's a fuse I can pull for the injectors but not sure which one. Or is there an easy to reach plug for the injectors? Either way, or other, I need to get the oil going through the motor before starting.

It's a 2011 SD4

Cheers

Sounds like you need a set of bearings and a new oil pump.
Check on the back end or side of the injector pump and see if there is a solenoid with a wire going to it, I have no idea what you're motor is or looks like, but most diesel engines that are key start have a solenoid on the injector pump to cut fuel to stop the engine and allow fuel when starting, if present disconnect the wire, Regards Frank.

Cheers Frank. The cars been sitting there for a few months without starting so better be on the safe side.

A very non vehicle specific way of turning a motor over without starting is to disconnect the starter motor switching wire, then temporarily hot wire it to the battery with the ignition switched off.
