It's a really bad idea to use used engine oil for any purpose. It has harmful carcenogenic contaminents in it (the byproducts of combustion blowby gases).

Any application on wood fence posts, rust proofing a car etc releases such contaminents into the environment. Do you really want that stuff in your own back yard?
