I experimented with WMO a tad with a 617, but that was just 100 micron filtering 10W30 freshly drained from my gasser and adding two quarts to the Mercedes tank each fill up until it was gone.

Yep. I've seen the photos of people filling up IBC totes at the pump, plus all sorts of non flamable approved containers, even clear plastic bags.

Plugging in my oil pan heater 30 minutes before leaving helped the heater blow warm sooner. Coolant heater would probably bet much better than than.
