    Im looking for a good sturdy oil drain pan that doesnt leak. Mine has finally died after getting run over, yeah i know shoulda looked! What is everyone using? Im thinking of a 7 quart one. Seems like the auto parts store looks at you funny when you come in with a 15 quart to recycle! Drew.

    I use a black heavy plastic round pan that holds about 20 Qts. It has a pour spout on one end and a handle on the other. I dump it into a 5 gal black heavy plastic jerry can (designed as a pan (on one side with drain into can) also, but too messy!) for the recycler. One V12 Jag engine holds 12 qts, you see.....
    Got them both at Sears years ago. I'd check to see what they sell today. These have been great!
