What to do with used oil?
What to do with used oil? Hey guys,
I'm going to be changing my oil tomorow by myself for the first time. So I was wondering what am I supposed to do with the old oil? My friend says I should take it to autozone but I need to buy a special type of container otherwise they wont take the oil? Can anyone confirm this? Thanks.

Lol, ill be using Mobil 1 synthetic. Ive never heard of advanced auto and the closest auto shop is auto zone. My friend told me that we needed a special container or do you think I can just use like an old juice jug?

i always just pour in the new oil, then put the old oil in the bottles that the new oil comes in. Autozone doesnt give a crap what you give it to them in.. i gave them a gallon in a muriatic acid jug, they didnt care..

Cool thanks guys. Alright, I have a big problem. I was trying to change the oil today and I tried to take off the oil drain bolt, but it wont budge. I tried everything and I think I might have stripped the bolt. Is there anything I can do to get it off?
If the head is rounded off, you can try hammering a smaller socket you dont really care for on there and see if that works.
When you were trying to remove it were you using a 6 or 12-point socket?
