Do the additives in oil go bad after time? Or is this totally useable? The outside of the bottles are dusty but I don't see a problem with using it

Honestly, don't risk it on your car. To test - Get a 12oz glass, drink half of it. Followed by a shot or 2 of antifreeze. Youll find that if the oil is bad, you will start to foam at the mouth, this is a sure sign to go buy some new oil. Well, if you got $ left from the medical bills that is...gg
