Anyone else have anything like this in their garage cupboards? I’m pretty sure these are coming up 45 years old. they’re at least 40 anyway. I used to use this in my 396 Chevy along with those filters!   |

I think I still have two quarts of old Harley oil (20-50). It will get used to oil hinges and things like that.

I still have one of those spouts that punctures the top of the can. I don't know why.

Dinosaur oil from Dinosaur times. Might hatch into baby dinosaurs if they don't get used quick.

Helped Dad a couple times growin up change the oil in his car and Moms car. I'd put the spout thru that metal lid on the round can of engine oil Dad would put in the fresh oil and my next job was to take the empty oil can and set it to drain for at least a day and drain the others too. Usually get enough out of draining those can to keep the squirt oiler can full tween changes. D X Sunray I believe 10-30. RIDE SAFE.

My wife seems to think I shouldn't have a self like that in the garage filled up with oil, solvents and sprays. She says it looks yucky. Women seem to think if they aren't around to see you use all those things you don't need them. I just tell her it's a garage and that's the way a good garage should look.

I got several, 6-9 cans (plastics bottles) of old oil. Both of my 4 wheel vehicles have a "lifetime" oil change warranty, so don't change my oil anymore. Guess it's time to see about getting rid of them.
