No it does not. If your willing to start up an engine with known low or no oil pressure you are assuming the risk of the damage. Either tear down the motor, or remove the plugs and disable the fuel/ignition and use the starter to bump rotate it a few times with a manual gage installed. If you want to run your engine with no pressure thats cool, but if my dealer ran mine and pulled this crap with me, they decded to run the engine, they just bought the engine.
