I've used Amsoil for may years and like their products a lot but today was a first. While doing an oil change on the America I found what appears to be "pretty certain" is a piece of Duct Tape. About 3/8" wide and 1 and 1/2" long.
This was a brand new quart, one of four. Luckily the funnel I use drains slowly and as I was pouring in the last quart it came slivering out. WTH is that.

That piece of tape had to fall in the mix fairly late in the bottling process. During the initial production, it would have dissolved from the heat and pressure.

I think it was on here where I read one of us was burned by someone figuring out how to open the quart bottles without breaking the plastic seal and put the old oil back in it and return it to the store for a refund. The store just puts it back on the shelf to sell again. I think one gallon containers have a foil seal under the cap.
