    Oil in quantity

    TWR1776's thread reminded me I was going to ask a question. I was at Autozone the other day, and I saw a 5 gallon bucket of Rotella T for $60. Is anyone out there using such a large container? If so, what do you use to get the oil out and into the bike? Some kind of metering pump would be ideal, I'd think, and a lot more convenient than pouring out of jugs or bottles.

    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

      Yeah, no cost saving there. I'm just curious how someone would actually use such a large container.

        funnel it into a gallon jug then fill the bike...doesnt make much sense to go thru all that though.
