I am wondering if any of you blokes who purchase your oil in 10 litre containers have a simple method to remove the bung ready for fitting the tap..

Thought about drilling but concerned about swarf contaminating the oil.

Lay container on its back and drill with a grease covered drill bit .Some containers u can stab the plug with a screw driver and flick it out also . [plastic containers only ]

I use a stanley knife and a screwdriver.....but because it's a pain, I keep the one with the tap already on and pour the left over oil out of the new drum into it..
