RecOil refers to a tool or kit designed to enable Do-It-Yourselfers (DIYs) to make safe, easy, fast, and clean oil changes. The tool consists of a pump, a modified drain plug, a hydraulic hose fitted with a coupler, connectors, and an optional mated oil container. An extension kit is available for those with multiple vehicles.
The RecOil tool can be sold directly to individuals through PPI, or it may be provided as part of a City-sponsored Program. Check with your City to see if it participates in the RecOil Program. The Program is described under the “RecOil Program” Quick Link.
The improper disposal of used motor oil and filters is the number one non-point source of groundwater pollution in the United States! You can help change this by taking your used oil and filters to a certified reclamation station. RecOil and its counterpart TurtleBac are products that help you cleanly and safely collect and transport used oil and oil filters.
Do you change your own motor oil and filter? RecOil is the way to change your oil faster, easier, cleaner, and safer than any other Do-It-Yourself (DIY) method.
