Unless you have a carburator, no fuel will be pumped in, the injectors will not pulse without ignition power.

Injectors spray if you crank the engine.. it wouldnt start if it didnt spray as you cranked. Thats why when you check compression you take out that fuse for the fuel pump.

The Injectors run off ignition power and so does the ECU that supplies pulse to them, so no ignition=no fuel.The only thing that would be working is the starter, nothing else.The whole idea is to delay ignition power for a few seconds while the starter cranks.

i dont think that cranking the starter is the way to go. I dont see any benefit unless you use something other than the factory oil pump.

When you crank the motor, you crank the motor. It doesnt matter if the injectors and/or plugs are firing. you are still cranking the motor over.

i wouldnt worry about the sudden jump to 750rpm either. when you start your car, it makes a few rotations at 250rpm before it fires anyway, then catches and swings up to 750-1000. i think that the starting process already does just as good of a job getting oil to the rest of motor as your idea would.

A seperate pump run electrically might do something, but is it even remotely worth it?

I'd rather build oil pressure at 200 rpm than at 750+rpm.I also refuse to believe that this idea would have no benefit, but I could be wrong.If I could take this idea and add a turbo timer to it and sell it for the price of any other turbo timer(Around $100), I think it would be worth it to buy it.At the very least, it is worth investigating further.Thats just me though, I'm always looking for a money making idea.Anybody know how the oil pumps work? are they centrifugal pumps? I've never torn apart an oil pump.
