Run a 12V source and ground to the top right (ground) and lower left (fuel pump test) ports on the ALDL. If the pump runs, the ECM is going south.

Re: 86 2.8 code 54 need help
The extended crank is because it's taking time, with the cold weather outside, for the oil pump to build enough pressure in the oil galleries inside the engine to activate the backup oil pressure fuel pump switch because the fuel pump relay circuit isn't working to prime the fuel system so the engine is primed and ready to run.
