Old oil
 
I recently found a 4 litre container of un opened Rock oil 10/40 semi synthetic in the garage, its a few years old. Do you all think it will be OK to use?

Shake it to the right, shake it to the left - and pour it in.
Oil is essentially millions of years old, and although it might separate in layers it is still usable. Heat can cause some molecular breakdown, but I assume you don't have a nuclear reactor in your garage.
Best of luck, just think how much your four liters has appreciated compared to bank interest rates!

Liquid gold... It's like finding £30 in an old coat pocket :D
