oil drain pan splash pads?

[Snakebyt]

i, like tons of other people use the 22x22 transmission drain pan for oil changes ect, my splash pad, after several years of use has started to get clogged, the oil dosent pass thru the splash pad near as fast as it once did. Whats everyone using for splash pads or should i drop the $30 on the Lisle one? here is a link to the lisle one. https://www.amazon.com/Lisle-38780-Square-No-Splatter-Pad/dp/B002AENGOG/?tag=atomicindus08-20

Bebop over to Wal Mart or your local Hardware Store you prefer and grab a washable filter similar to this:

True Blue 24 x 36 x 1 Budget FRP 2 Washable Filter HD0124361 - The Home Depot

True Blue - 24 in. x 36 in. x 1 in. Washable FRP 2 Air Filter - Provides protection against dust and pollen. Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value rating of 4. Lasts up to 12 months. Synthetic filter material.

the best ones I've used are green, about an inch thick and you can trim to fit just about any drain pan.

You need a larger oil pan. I use the bottom 14” of an IBC tote. It’s easy to move on a pallet, oil doesn’t splash out and it’s easy to drain into another tote when it’a time.
