Performance Tool low-profile oil drain pan, 2.8 qt — compact chemical-resistant for motorcycles & small engines

Performance Tool W4073 is a low-profile 2.8-quart oil drain pan built to catch oil from motorcycles, lawn equipment, and other small engines cleanly and without spills.

This compact drain pan combines a tapered low front, a splash-guard lip, and chemical-resistant plastic so you can drain oil quickly and with less mess. Its narrow nose fits close to most small-engine drain plugs, while the 2.8-quart capacity handles many motorcycle oil changes and routine maintenance tasks for equipment up to 1000 cc. The pan's curved shape and durable construction make it a practical addition to any home garage or pro toolbox.

How does the low-profile design reduce spills?

The W4073's tapered front allows the pan to slide under low-clearance oil drain points so used oil drains directly into the reservoir rather than running down the engine or onto the floor. The curved basin directs flow toward the center, and the raised lip helps keep splashes contained.

• Tapered nose for close fit beneath most small-engine drain plugs
• Curved bowl channels fluid to the center
• Splash-guard lip minimizes overflow and splatter

Will this hold enough oil for my motorcycle or mower?

With a 2.8 quart (2.64 L) capacity, this drain pan suits most motorcycles and many small engines used in lawn mowers, ATVs, and garden tractors. It’s sized to handle a full oil change for bikes up to about 1000 cc, and for routine service on smaller equipment it provides ample headroom to avoid frequent emptying.

• 2.8 quarts (2.64 L) total capacity
• Suitable for motorcycles up to 1000 cc and common lawn equipment
• Generous volume reduces the need to pause and empty mid-service

What material is it made from and how durable is it?

The drain pan is molded from heavy-duty, chemical-resistant plastic designed to withstand oil and common automotive chemicals. Its rugged construction resists cracking and holds shape through repeated use, making it a reliable tool for both weekend DIY jobs and professional maintenance.

• Heavy-duty plastic resists oils and many chemicals
• Rigid construction resists warping and cracking
• Easy to clean and store when not in use

How easy is it to handle, clean, and store?

The W4073 is lightweight and compact at 15.9 x 8.5 x 2.68 inches, which makes it simple to position beneath low-clearance drains and to carry full of used oil to a disposal point. Smooth interior surfaces help make wiping or rinsing out residual oil quick, and its size fits easily on a shelf or in a service cart.

• Compact footprint: 15.9" × 8.5" × 2.68" for easy placement and storage
• Lightweight for carrying to recycling or disposal stations
• Smooth interior simplifies cleaning with solvent or degreaser
