    Not sure how I'd use this in a push mower or a leaf blower, but it's rated for it.

    Here in Central Ontario chain oil is reg price about 20 to 30 bucks a gal (small gal) Peavy mart (TSC) has Harvest King on sale this week for $13.19 a gal, reg price is $21.99, and of coarse as usual they don't have any. So I looked on Amazon.ca and there's are all 50 to over 70 bucks a gallon, and because I have a Business account I can save 1% if I buy 2 or more, what a joke!

    the tree guys I work with prefer the Stihl shaped oil jug over these shapes. They say that squarish jug is easier to pour.

    These style laundry detergent bottles act like a no spill for bar oil. Work great IME.

    I have had good luck with an old quart jug from gear oil that has the small spout on top , a quart is plenty of oil for a days cutting for me.
    My old body will run out of gas long before I run out of oil.

    I had some bar & chain oil that came in one of these bottles many years ago. Got from a friend. Quaker State brand. I think it got smashed or something. Most of my bar oil spills these days are from overfills.

    ^^ those bottles also make GREAT fire tools if you pour a little diesel fuel in one.
