ABSTRACT:
An automotive kit for catching oil drippings includes a housing having a base section and a lid section pivotally connected therewith, an outlet formed within the housing for defining a passageway to advantageously direct fluid outwardly from the housing when the kit is disposed along a vertical plane. The present invention further includes a plurality of automotive accessories, and a mechanism for advantageously maintaining the accessories at a substantially stable position when positioned within the housing. An end cap is securable to the outlet for preventing fluid from exiting the passageway, and a reservoir is connectable to the outlet for collecting fluid traveling downwardly from the housing. A conventional 1 quart bottle of oil may be attached to the housing outlet for collecting oil drippings wherein the outlet includes a lip portion for directing the oil drippings towards the center thereof.
