Best new oil containers/bottles

[PimTac]

Valvoline’s new jugs by far. A lot of thinking went into the design imo. They placed grip areas and a small indent at the bottom end just in case one had to lean way forward to pour or to use two hands. I like the clear overcap. You can see the foil seal without opening.

Yeah, I see what you mean... but no.

The three engines in a year (it was actually 358 days, but who is counting...?) was all on Jasper. Engines 1 & 2 were approved warranty claims, and the engines were replaced. I'm on engine #3 right now.

Because of my unfortunate experiences, I'm going to continue to use an easily recognizable name brand oil... in the proper viscosity, of course... along with OEM filters with the Jasper engine, while it is still under warranty. Not sayin', just sayin'.

However, I have been running the $10.99 Harvest King full synthetic, in 5w-20 flavor, in the 2011 Fusion SE... and the $7.99 5w-30 semi-synthetic in the old Sierra... without any worries.

The Fusion is driven right at 25,000 miles a year, and I'm changing the oil in it every 5,000 miles (or 10 weeks).

Harvest King JUG makes me hungry for waffles with extra syrup.

Me, too...quite handy! I've found that even the 5 quart jugs balance fairly well in it once I've dumped the bulk of the oil in.

I bought one last week, too. Up until this point, I always bought 1qt bottles, so never really needed a funnel. For my upcoming OC, I got 5qt jugs, so I figured a funnel will help.

Good to know that someone besides me and Helen Keller find the Flo Tool Super QuickFill Funnel to be useful. Was beginning to worry.

Price is right and made in the US.

I use the Helen Keller funnel as well... It is awesome.

Is it because it can't "TALK" back?

I tear myself up, sometimes!
