How to solve this equation:1 Take one gallon of your viscosity motor oil. ie. 10-30 or 5 weight... and weigh it.

2 pour it into another container and weigh the empty container.

3 subtract the container from the combined weight.

4. It will weigh around 8 lbs-9.3 lbs. per gallon depending on thickness of oil.

5. Now take your calculator and hit 8456/ 8.? the weight of one gallon without container.

6. This will tell you how much the oil weighs. But don't forget the weight of the large container that will hold the oil roughly 1000 gallons
