Used engine oil is flagged as carcinogenic by the way - so try not to get on you too much.

It's one of those things - how often do you get in you etc etc.

Changing oil is no biggie - I do it all the time, but submerging your exposed hands in used engine oil isn't the best approach.

Just don't want any of you getting hurt.

Among other things I'm safety officer at work, and it beats into you the whole "careful about everything" approach.

Sorry didn't mean to preach. Mind how you all go out there!

I have used one of these on my Diesel pickup for about 9 years its real nice and doesn't leak a drop after its shut. I put a ton of miles on it one year and had worries about the threads striping because of the amount of oil changes I had to do.. I would say get it if you have to change the oil often. If not, I wouldn't worry about it.
