    Stock up, it can sit on the shelf. I bought 5 gallons of bar oil and 4 gallons of 2 stroke oil. Also bought several gallons on oil for the truck and Skidsteer and a few gallons of 10-30 synthetic for all the small engines. Might grab some more even. It won’t go bad in the jug, better to have it.

    Which roofing adhesive or are you joking?

    Friend of mine asked me to dispose of some drain oil (I haven't yet) and if I can use it for the bars why not.

    Used oil has carbon particles in it that will eat up the oilers on newer saws. Old saws with the manual oilers might be ok...
