New Valvoline 5 Quart Bottle Pour Spout Design

OK. Discuss oil container caps.

Arguing is better. Plastic jug caps are important!
Of course if you turn the bottle flat there is no gluging, so there's that...

"...annoying foil..."
anti-frz/boil too. Stupid. Some days my finger pops thru'n I grab to peal off in 1 continuous.
Other daze neither wrks. Pretty sure me/customer never got the 'shreds' tho.

I like the new 5-qt Valvoline pull-up foil.

Yeah the "current" (now "previous" I guess) design with the clear cap thing pours great, but they do leak out of the box fairly often.

New label jugs at Walmart yesterday had same easy pour spout.

I recently did an OCI with a Valvoline 0W-20 Extended Protection series and I still used the funnel to avoid unnecessary spill up. Well, I am no expert in pouring oil into the engine without the use of a funnel..

Looks like cost containment - or oil containment.
Paper cans with steel lid are coming next. Dust off the old oil can spout!

You still need a funnel, the spout on those valvoline bottles is worse about spreading the oil out wider than just pouring out of a big round opening like on XOM or Castrol bottles,

Agree. The big point with these jugs is the handle placement. You can pour one handed and the built in spout design prevents glugging and ensures a smooth pour into your funnel.
