Pre-lube Using Start/Stop Remote Panel

I posted this question on the tail of another thread. There was not much  response. So, I am starting a new thread. Our coach has a remote start/stop panel. I wonder if the stop button operates the fuel shut off valve. If so, then the engine may be able to be pre-lubed by holding the stop button while cranking the engine with the start button. Has anyone tried this?

I checked our wiring diagram and tested our remote panel stop button today. Pressing the stop button kills the ignition relay(s) on the bottom of the main 12-volt breaker panel, located in front of co-pilot seat. So trying to ignition key start, with stop button pressed, would probably not work for us.

But I did find on our diagram a wire feed #19 WH from ignition key switch to fuel shut-off, which shows the fuel shut off load directly on ignition key switch, which surprised me. #19 would keep fuel shut off powered after starting, but the starter circuit also temporarily powers the fuel shut off, so putting a switch on #19 would not prevent fuel flow during dry cranking.
