|

Having just changed oil & filters on my backhoe I have several gallons of nice clean oil. Looking for suggestions on how to use this oil for other uses. I now use some for treating wood/posts- How do you use your used hydraulic oil? Thanks |

I give mine to a guy who heats his shop with waste oil. Everyone is happy. |

I used mine and used motor oil to coat wood decks on hay wagons. |

Several gallons of NICE CLEAN OIL? As in, new oil?
Why not keep it around and use it for top-offs, or the next oil change?
NEVER throw away new oil just because it's leftover. You don't *have* to do something with it *right now*. It will keep. It doesn't go bad. |

The place where you bought your new oil should accept your used oil. They in turn sell it and it likely gets burned to generate electricity or heat. |

New looking oil that has 1000 hours on it,at $10 a gallon just looking for a good way to make use of it. Its too thin for chainsaw bar oil.Looks very similar to log oil used for decks/log homes but does not dry out as well.Thanks for your input. |
