So I've noticed an interesting observation with my one gallon oil jugs I use to store my used oil. I keep about 15 of them that are constantly reused then bring them to the autoparts store when they're full 5 at a time because that's all that's allowed. Some of these will sit for a year or so, but there always seems to be a big 1in layer of sludge at the bottom that oozes out compared to the rest of the oil in the jug that flows out normally. So I guess if you live in an area where you're engine goes unused for months at a time I'd give it a fresh oil change before layup.
