Wrong. Your oil only needs to be heated/made "less thick" before it hits your IP, and preferably before your filters.

There are two ways to accomplish this: 1) an electric lift pump, or 2) an electric heated fuel pickup. Either way, you'll be using electric components.
I recommend the electric lift pump because it's a bit easier to install than a heated pickup, draws less electricity, and requires no "warm-up" time.
