No, it recirculates the fuel in the filter and controls temperature with a thermostat. Our climate is tempered, no jellying problems here.
Not so likely, unless it had some electric heating element similar to the injectors of some Brazilian port-injection flexfuel cars.

It's a direct injection diesel, so the half injector's body is inside the head. Since the flow inside the injector is very slow I believe it heats the fuel a little more to 60~70ºC maybe after the engine reach full working temperature.
