ABSTRACT:
A container for collecting and storing oil drained from an internal combustion engine has a bottom wall and a lower end wall for selectively supporting the container in prone and upright positions. The top wall has a funnel-shaped portion surrounded by an upwardly directed, continuous ridge. The lower most portion of the top wall has a hole open to the chamber to allow oil to drain into the chamber. The upper end wall has a first handle used to carry the container. A second handle is located diagonally opposite a pouring spout to facilitate the manual tilting of the handle to pour oil out of the container through the pouring spout. The pouring spout is normally closed with a removable cap. A removable plug is used to close the hole in the top wall.
