Has anyone suggested to check the fuel pressure? And the oil light, was that on by chance?

I don't have a pressure gauge but I had my buddy crank the truck over and I opened the valve on the fuel rail and I'm getting fuel and no no oil light on I also did my fuel pump not even a year ago and that's up and running when I hit the key
