Not sure about engine oil, but diesel is - unfortunely - highly biodegradable...
I remember having neighbours in the 60's that did that...
Not a good idea in 1963. Still not a good idea in 2021.
That is funny
Seems like good advice.
My dad would slosh it on the gravel drive way to the house. I don't remember everything from my childhood but I do not recall any disposal/recycling centers. I am sure vehicle repair shops at that time had means of disposal but my dad would not bother.
Any ideas on how to repurpose used oil?
Used motor can and is recycled for various uses...
I've poured many a quart of recycled oil through my pickup years ago.
