Used by engineers for 2 items. The best place to get them is obviously Westfall since the golems drop them pretty often, but can be a pain for horde.

And just like real life, oil seems to be getting much harder to come by these days...

Sheesh, this needs to be at the top here since Cata. Fight these to find your flasks: [npc=44616] [npc=44576] [npc=114] If you have Engineering, you'll be able to harvest the corpse, and THAT is where people are finding the flasks. A few have said the mobs in Loch Modan have a much better drop rate. It's still listed on the loot table for the Harvesters, but apparently that's now inaccurate.
