Long story short, my RX350 was smashed into and has lay up whilst the insurance companies have battled it out.

17(!) months later I'm planning on starting the engine.  First worry is the top-end having little to no oil left in it so how would you folks prime the engine?

On the lesser complicated stuff I have it would be a case of removing the EFI fuse and turning over till the oil pressure light goes out.  Hopefully it's the same deal with the 2GR?

So long as I can get it started oil change is next on the list after..

Thank you for any advice!

Got my answer at last so updating the thread.

As suspected I took the EFI fuse out and cranked the engine over until the oil pressure light went out.

Then fuse back in and she fired up.  

No odds noises, backfires or explosions so we're elected!

Oil and filter change before anything else I think.
