Has anyone installed a 3 quart oil accumulator on their cummins? It takes mine about 8-10 seconds to register any oil pressure in the morning and it has a rough, loud, low idle until the pressure comes up. I think installing one would prevent alot of unnecessary wear.

so anyone tried it?
I don't know where a good place to plumb one would be. I don't think the oil system has a backflow check valve does it? Im a little concerned with it pushing dirty oil back down from the filter, but it would just get sucked back into the filter anyways.
any ideas?
