I pour mine into several plastic, five gallon cans,and a friend who has a used oil furnace, picks it up when the drums are full! Many years ago, i rented a garage during the winter, to work on my race car. the garage wasn't heated, so here's what we did: I had an old pot-bellied stove, and inside it, i paced an old skillet, on the grates. Then, i ran a 1/4 inch copper tube from a 5 gallon oil can, down into the skillet. I installed a turn-off valve in the line. To light the stove, i'd roll up some news-paper, several lumps of it, and turn on the oil valve to run about a quarter inch of oil into the skillet. Then i'd light the paper, close the door, and watch the fire thru he adjustable vent in the door. When the oil got to burning, i could regulate the flow, and the fire, with the valve. A small elctric fan hung above the stove would be run on slow, and it would heat the garage enough that we could work without coats or sweaters! We used old drained oil from the place i worked. Used several 5 gallon cans of it each winter. BUT!!! Have a regular fire extinguisher handy, in case of emergencies! Don't ask me why i said that--we had one! Almost burnt down the garage!

What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
