first thing is he has an angine thats out of the car with major machanical problems. Needs to find a way to set the engine up so he can crank it over.but ur on the right track. u could remove the filter and crank it over. It should be very messy but it would tell u if u have pressure up to that point. Then get ur hands on a machan ical pressure guage that will screw onto the ffilter boss and see how much pressure u have. UNFORTUNITLY u need to have the engine running for proper pressure test
