You guys got recommendations for oil containers? Resolved to working on my car while it's in the garage during lockdown, starting with an oil change. I'm looking for something that doesn't leak at all. The last container I had leaked horribly, and I'm not finding anything on Amazon.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. |

Use one of these; Or use the new oil container you fill in to the car via a drip tray; |

Liquid laundry soap jugs work well and usually have a large mouth that's easy to pour into from a catch pan.
Still use it for the motos. Since I got a FuMoto valve, I drain it direct back into the last oil jug I saved in the corner.

If you need something to put the the old oil into after you drain it, you could use the oil bottle that the new oil came in? |

I'll think about getting one, though. Unfortunately (or fortunately?) I'm not married. |

Roast chicken bone (larger bone from middle part of wing) after I've finished with it.
The same bone after the ants have finished with it a day later.
