This is reply to old post, but I am trying to catch-up...


I just changed my oil last night.  A few years ago I found a neat plastic
thing on a junk year 82 Diesel Westy that was factory I guess.  It fits
under the oil filter and is designed to catch the oil that spills when you
change the filter.
Has anyone else ever seen one of these, I never did before.


Very useful thing, I love it.
