    It's been a long day, so please forgive me for not searching - but I don't remember ever seeing this.


    While doing my 55K mile oil change tonight I decided to use an old (and clean) Mobil 1 quart jug as a funnel. When I placed it in the oil fill hole I noticed that the fit was snug, so I tried turning the jug - and it threaded right in!!

    Yup, I like to do it b/c then I have a nice clean new funnel each time instead of pulling a dusty one out of the garage and trying to wipe it clean.

    I cut the top off 2 liter coke bottles when empty, rinse, and put the cap on. Store upside-down until needed. New funnel every time.
