I had a relative years ago that would change his oil at the self serve car wash! Yep, just drain the oil right into the drain. I was infuriated with him as I am very much into saving the environment! This is why the shops charge a disposal fee so the oil can be disposed of properly!
>>>> Not too long ago our paper ran a story about some knucklehead that was doing work on his car( not inspected no insurance no registration). He was doing just that, letting fluids drain into the street. A policeman confronted him and tried to give him a citation but he ran into his house, thinking that being inside and away from the car made him immune to being cited. He may not even have owned the car but was using it. Of course he was ordered outside and when they tried to arrest him he resisted not feeling he had the right to be arrested. You gotta love that, he really had the book thrown at him.

Local auto parts stores have an oil disposal tank in the back for free. You just bring in your old oil.
Aside from the parts store, my experience has been just about any place that changes oil will gladly recycle your old oil free of charge. I THINK it's CA law that they have to take it, but I cannot confirm that. With so many shops that change oil, there's really no excuse to do something so lazy.

I have taken used oil to the quick lube place up the street and they let me pour it into their drain. No disposal fee.
Here is my engine compartment.. Pretty clean.. I use an engine foam then just wash it off and run the engine for a few minutes.. This was cleaned about 3 months ago....
I'm not sure, I rarely open the hood. I used to polish my Harley truck inside and out but I don't worry about as much on my Raptor. Anyhow, it's not that difficult, I used to use engine foam and even Armerall.
So.....did the Daytona and the Cherokee just come out of a box or something?
Wow.
