It's a triumph. The engines change/burn the oil off themselves

Oi!!! Mine doesn't drink oil!!! I have a few other jamjars of the stuff too, I never know what to do with it. Recycling facility seems best, I dunno if they take it, I'll have a go. Else I'll burn it.

I dump stuff like that in with my oil then give it to the local garage to send off with theirs.

I have a couple of drums about 10 gallons capacity I acquired some years ago, I fill it with waste oil and occasionally empty it at my local recycling centre (Note I did not say dump, they don't like me calling it that).

However, interesting one was when the wifey put 50L of petrol in my diesel car. and phoned me saying whoops. I say do not start the engine. I get up there and the filling station owner is going beserk because she will not move it away from the pump. I push it away and empty the tank into my containers and go to local dump and ask where I can get rid of waste petrol, how much? they say and I say 70L. Not here. Well where? Dunno is the reply. So went to the dump in another down and emptied it into their oil tank without saying a word to anyone.

Should have left it outside your house with petrol written on it some poles would have had it in a heartbeat.

Mine goes in the waste oil container like most other folks, then is taken to council disposal facility. Lets face it, most of what gets cleaned off the chain is old oil anyway....

Knowing what you think of some of your neighbours, spray it on their lawns. or on their front drives.
