You do know you can prepay in Aug for the whole year and they re-fill 
you on a schedule at that same price?

Or.. at least every oil company I've dealt with has that program.


The only other oil tank trick I know is to encase the copper fuel 
line in plastic tubing if it runs along the floor in a concrete 
basement.  It'll last longer that way.  Previous owner on my last 
house didn't know that trick.  Pinhole at o'dark:thirty on day 2 of 
ownership....
