Engine oil.

Post by finchey63 » 08 Apr 2017, 18:55

Just a quick one,
I've got some engine oil in the shed that's been opened
It's about two years old.
Will it be any good or is it for the tip?
It's motul in it's original container and the lid is on tight.

I'd have no qualms about using that oil.

If I was you I wouldn't.
Just let me know where you are and I can come and dispose of it for you. I'll only charge a tenner.

Ok cab I'll do that.
How far you prepared to travel for a tenner.
If it's too far for you,
I'll make it £15 if that sounds fair to you. :lol:

I'll check date.
But is the expiry date if it's unopened?

Keeping it cool is important once it's opened, but if it's sealed it'll be fine
