Answer:-

                 Technician B is correct.

[ Note:-   Technician A is not correct because when engine gets heated then oil gets thin, and thin oil flows easier than cold oil resulting in decrease in oil pressure.

                Technician B is correct because when the engine is cold then oil is much thicker than it will be at operating temperature. Because of that a restriction will create on the way of oil flow ,during starting this type of problem arises and because of that oil pressure will show higher than normal reading.]
