Used Oil

RuffedUpXJ · 03-15-2011, 07:56 PM

What do you guys do with your used oil?

I know some auto parts stores take it, ie NAPA.

Does any one want like 7-8 gallons of used car oil?

donaldcon · 03-15-2011, 08:19 PM

Burn it in my waste oil heater, but 7 gallons of oil isnt worth the drive for me :0

93 Krawler · 03-15-2011, 08:20 PM

I will take it. Where do you live? I will pick it up from you.

GPER · 03-15-2011, 08:57 PM

I take mine to Auto Zone

Kevin do you burn waste oil ? I will keep what i have around if you want it too...

93 Krawler · 03-15-2011, 09:46 PM

Sure do, in my garage at home. I'll take whatever you got. Can you bring it on a wheeling trip or something? You could bring it to the meeting if I drove the van.

Anyone that lives close to Fairfield and has some oil, I could come get it. I have 5 gal buckets I could swap out, or if you change a bunch of oil, I have 15 gal containers I could drop off and pick up.

i have one of the buckets you gave me almost full if you want it.

kyrel69 · 03-16-2011, 09:00 AM

hey if you do not think I am too far you could bring me one of those 15 gal ones. I am about to change the oil on all my truck cars and off road rigs all together that should be 7 to 10 gal right there. :)

8UP · 03-16-2011, 09:25 AM

Can you use Synth oil as well or does tit need to be dino oil? What about outher types of oil, like gear oil, ATF etc?

RuffedUpXJ · 03-16-2011, 09:53 AM

Krawler I am off Princeton Rd right by the new Menards.

carwash · 03-16-2011, 12:59 PM

I've got a tank here that can be dumped into as well, as long as it's clean oil (not full of antifreeze, etc).

Thanks,

RuffedUpXJ · 03-16-2011, 03:43 PM

PM me when you will be heading down 129 and I can get you my address and you can get it.

93 Krawler · 03-16-2011, 04:54 PM

Might be next weekend sometime. Going wheeling this wekend. Anyone else got some oil to get rid of? I might be able to swing by and grab it next weekend.

kyrel69 · 03-16-2011, 06:42 PM

can you use gear oil and tranny fuild?

donaldcon · 03-16-2011, 07:04 PM

Yes, he can burn gear oil and tranny fluid. Just needs to be coolant free.

At my work we have a 2000 gallon waste oil tank ( we are an oil change/carwash) we pump it all into ( including antifreeze) We pump it back into the building into a 250gallon tank from about half way up the big tank. The antifreeze settles to the bottom and doesnt get pumped back in. Shops bene open for 6 years now and coolant has never been drained, were about to do that, should be interesting to see how much is actualy in there.

EVERYTHING is heated with oil, our water for inside and for the carwash, our building, and our entire parking lot, all heated with waste oil.

We clean the boiler every 5 days through the winter and once a month in the summer as all thats ehated then is water.

It can be a pretty crappy job.

On a cold night we can easily burn 45 gallons of oil.

If you need oil jugs I should have a couple extra 5 gallon jugs still. If you're around Marsh's area in Middletown, stop by my old work (Alliance Printing on Atco Ave) and ask if they have any of their old 5 gallon chemical jugs. They used to keep a big stack of them when I worked there...

RuffedUpXJ · 03-22-2011, 02:35 PM
