Many years ago, my friend wanted to buy an engine from a guy so he could upgrade his car for racing purposes.
We went in my car to get the engine from some guy in El Paso. He thought it appropriate to bring my car and also thought it perfectly sane to put the newly-purchased used engine in the trunk of my car.
After lining the trunk with tarps, we loaded it in.
As we drove back to his place, which consisted of both left and right turns over the course of an hour, the engine understandably tipped from one side to the other.
What did we open the trunk to find after arriving at his house to unload the engine?
Engine oil. Everywhere.
Apparently no one thought to drain the engine prior to transport. Also apparently, no one thought about checking to see if the oil had been drained from said engine prior to loading it into the trunk.
Needless to say, that was a nightmare to clean; a process which took days, included a laundromat, and never fully removed all of the oil.
Fortunately I don’t have that car anymore.

Something of a variety show... minus the host, music, magic, ventriloquist, and show parts.

I myself experience so much stress with my oil tank cleaning because it's too complicated. I always get my trusted company to do that job for me and they never fail me.
