Follow Car Talk advice the Form-A-Funnel™ way

Here’s something of special interest to all you followers of the NPR radio show CarTalk or to anyone interested in starting to do some of his or her own car repairs: Car Talk Do-It-Yourself Tips.

This is relatively easy, true, but not necessarily a clean project—especially dealing with the old filter. It’s often in an awkward and inconvenient location, and the draining oil ends up everywhere but the drain pan.
Until now! To make your next oil change as clean and easy as possible, check out our new Form-a-Funnel™ Draining Tool. It’ll shape to whatever space your engine allows for draining the old oil. I’m talking any engine—cars, trucks, motorcycles, lawn & garden equipment, generators, snow blowers, fork lifts, you name it.

You can even wipe it clean and reshape it to pour in the clean oil.

You’ll be glad to have it. Heck, if you’ve changed oil for years the old-fashioned way, like I have, you’ll be ecstatic. Now you can avoid oil spills and having to create lousy makeshift ways to channel oil—like this:

I advise reading through all seven of Click & Clack’s Steps. Good stuff there.
