Abstract: A waste oil container includes an oil catch pan for collecting oil that leaks from a parked vehicle and a leash for attaching the oil catch pan to the vehicle. The oil catch pan includes a bottom, a surrounding wall structure, and an open top. The oil catch pan is integrally formed of a crush-resistant material that is self-supporting, is sufficiently flexible to collapse without breaking when crushing force is applied, and is sufficiently resilient to return to an original condition when the crushing force is removed. The oil catch pan is sized to fit underneath a parked vehicle to collect oil leaking from the vehicle and can be stored within the vehicle without unleashing the oil catch pan when the vehicle is being driven.

Abstract: A tool for extracting a glow plug includes an externally threaded shaft, an internally threaded sleeve that engages the externally threaded shaft, and a fixed cavity formed in one end of the externally threaded shaft. The cavity has a side entry to permit the insertion of the glow plug into the cavity in a direction normal to the shaft, and a pair of opposing shoulders integrally formed in opposing sidewalls of the cavity to engage the glow plug. The sleeve threads down the shaft until it contacts the engine block. Rotating the sleeve exerts a pulling force on the shaft, which is transferred to the inserted glow plug by the opposing shoulders in the cavity. This pulls both the shaft and the inserted glow plug away from the engine block.
