Lisle 19702 Dispenser with Lid and Cap - 8 Quart Capacity,White

Dropped my 50s-era metal oil can damaging seams to point now leaking heavily. This 8qt Lisle is just inside ballpark of similarity. Spout is at top, metal can was at bottom. I can see the spout collar / nut breaking, looks like can be replaced with common nut used on sink continuous waste plumbing fixtures. So far, has held up through multiple oil changes. Don't like having to tip so far compared to old can, but also doesn't let oil flow if dropped fill spout either like on my old one. 2 oil changes, 15qts and 8qts, made me decide I needed something more again than using bottles. This plastic can works well.I foresee the raw plastic (ldpe / hope/ nylon) breaking down from being in UV from sunlight / fluorescent / mercury lights. Will be painting mine with a UV protectant or spray paint designed for plastics. You know which brand, starts with a K but not the planet Krypton. When painting, will be leaving strip along graduations to make it easier to fill. Old can was difficult to see level, as numbers started from bottom as 10, and top was 1. Must have been intended since spout was on bottom. This 8qt is much easier to see how much oil is inside to pour into engine, or on floor.8qt Lisle also is resilient. Dropped mine with 6qts oil. Didn't fall on spout initially, but it did bounce up a few inches a couple times after oil content was sloshed across the floor. I don't think lid is intended to stay on, looks more like a dirt / dust cover. I'm sure it would have slowed the distance oil was thrown... if I was using it.Cost was higher than I wanted, but is somewhat of a niche product without resorting to watering can for plants. Unfortunately, metal cans cannot be found, but this plastic one approaches durability.

Love this. I can load up my entire oil capacity with this and makes oil changes much faster. Relatively easy to clean and I keep a rag over top to keep the dust and elements out

This 8-quart Lisle 19702 dispenser with lid is a game-changer! The white color is sleek and easy to clean. The lid and cap design make pouring and storing fluids a breeze, perfect for my DIY projects. Its 8-quart capacity is just what I need for larger tasks, and the durable construction ensures it will last a long time. Highly recommend this dispenser for anyone who loves to work efficiently and with precision.

WORKS WELL I WILL BE BUYING MORE OF THEM.

Markings are pretty accurate. Filled it with a 5QT bottle an it hit the line exact. Top of the bottle allows for a 5QT to sit and drain safely. The spout is kinda useless for my truck, but work well with my car given where the oil fill port is on the motor. I don't consider this to be a problem as I really wanted it for measurements. I would put a sticker on the side for the vehicles you service and how much oil goes in for quick reference.Would buy again. Probably will 3D print a cap and ditch the spout

Perfect to measure odd amounts required in many cars. Allows a more precise way to change fluids in a car when need to replace quantities that are not usual quarts. Very well made and a strong easy to read the amounts on the side of the container

My shop did not supply these and had to provide my own. Been using it for years, and holds up well, no leaks, cracks or any issues!

I took a shot on this because I needed it overnight and I am not disappointed. Plastic is thick and up to my expectations based off of ones I've seen in real dealership environments but this one can hold 6.5+ quarts. I haven't tested yet, I plan on using funnel if spout leaks. I bought this to reclaim newly changed trans fluid(from check hole) for a solenoid job on 08 hhr. I plan to look into buying bulk now that I have this.
