So here is what happened I bought 5 quarts of motor oil about two months ago. It was full and not opened and I throw it in the back floor of my car. about one month and half latter I was going shopping and needed to use the back of my car an love and behold about 2.5 quarts (give or take) was on my floor and some of the oil was left in the container witch was about half full. I placed the container on the ground…..  A few days letter when I had the money I bought kitty litter and placed it on the floor of my car.

You may ask me why did I do something like that and I will tell you why? Well when I was in my teens I want to a vocational school. Witch I want there for Diesel and When there is oil on the ground we put kitty litter on it. Witch will soak up the oil with time.

 So I thought in theory this should work. Few days go by and I bought a Shop Vac to suck it all up and for the most part the kitty litter worked excepts the carpet still has good amount of oil in it. What I’m asking for is suggestions on how to get the oil off my carpet?

Hell or maybe you might have a story on the same subjected and you may divulge it here on this topic.

Get rid of your carpet and find out the composition of the "oil" so our chemistry experts can work out a chemical reaction that will remove the oil from your carpet

And you sir are a mad man But thanks for a link Yours seems to be aimed at my problem more but I can't help but to think this is just aimed at stains and not the removal of excusive oil from the carpet. because the oil stained nothing it's just sitting in my carpet.

Was the Witch OK? And did the 5 quart leak out gradually over that month and a half or did it all spill at once? You'd think you might have smelled it in your car for a month and a half.

I smelled nothing it's not a strong smell as you might think and yes I made a mistake.
