I can find no discussion or anyone offering a simular product for oil pumps. It would seem there is a direct correlation of advantage between the Electric Water Pump (EWP) and an Electric Oil Pump EOP? Have I missed an offering of such a product or did i miss a pitfall? To clarify I do not mean "pre oilers". I mean a full time EOP.
