    Try kitty litter. Sprinkle it generously on the stain, let it soak up the oil, sweep it away and repeat. Do that several times and follow up with a high detergent soap and hot water wash.

    as suggested the kitty litter once you have absorbed all you can. a concentrated bottle of dawn squirted directly on the stain flushed with hot water not water from a hose.

    Use some 50 / 50 laundry detergent in warm water. Following with bleach should take care of it.

    I've heard a lot of different thing. I use Greased Lightning and it works fine. Some people say to put flour or something like that on it to absorb then use a cleaner.
