[AT] @$#@$#% Cub - red engine oil

[charliehill]

Let me tell you how to get water out of your waste fuel and oil.  It's so 
simple, if you haven't thought of it you'll kick yourself.  Put it in a 
barrel and let it sit without disturbing it so that it settles out.  Wait 
for a hard freeze.  Pump the fuel/oil off the top and leave the block of ice 
in the drum.
