    If there is anyway to spin the oil pump without turning the engine over, that would be better than cranking to prime the oil passages....at least that's the case with pushrod V8s. I admittedly don't know much about Audis.
    1962 Chevy C10 w/ 401 Buick Nailhead
    1955 Chrysler C300 w/ factory 331 Hemi
    1999 Infiniti I30..............One of these is not like the others.

    I don't think there is, I believe the oil pump is chain driven off the crank.
