Cleaning oil jug

[BluEwOrM]

Hey,
I hope someone in the community can give me some advice.
i have a oil jug that is the perfect size to fit in my stand and i would like to use it as a container to do my auto top off for my sw tank

i need a way to clean the jug and make sure there is no oil left in the jug if this is do-able

thanks

I would pass on that . even if you used soap and water etc. I would be concerned about any residue or something leaching out over time. Personaly I would not take the chance....your talking engine oil or veg oil ? the later would be better if you were set on using it. imho

+1 I wouldn't risk it either

Too risky.. Long term effects i guess.

I would think that most oil jugs shapes and sizes could be found without resorting to using an old oil jug!

Check your local $ Dollar Store they have a wide variety of containers available.
Look in the grocery store for products that come in the correct sized container.

isn't it something like, 1 drop of oil, spoils 1000's of gallons of water??

IMHO bad bad idea
