Ship it to Love Canal.  It should qualify for super-fund status!  :)

Sorry Joe, I couldn't help it <-grin->

OK, I drained the sump on my new-to-me TR8 and found it was a nasty
mixture
of old oil, sludge, and really old fuel.  Add to that a little solvent I
used to clean the pan and you've got a mixture only a chemist could
love.
The guy at the parts store said he can't take it if it's got anything
other
than "motor oil" in it.  (I tried the old gasoline-came-from-oil
routine, to
no avail.)  So, what methods can you recommend for disposing of this
ecological nightmare?  Simple and cheap are prefered, as long as it
doesn't
incure any jail time.  Enquiring minds want to know....
