Boiling water with "$pic & Span" ,scrub with a push broom,let set but do not allow to dry.
Cover with cheap kitty litter and allow it to "draw out" the oil. Repeat if you must but one time usually does it.
On old concrete this method can leave a "clean spot" that will blend in with use.

I suggest you use Lestoil. I use it on any type of oil stain - floor or fabric. I totally, 100% swear by it. I am not sure about concrete surfaces though. Maybe you can call a local oil/lube place and ask them how they clean up oil. I know it's a different kind of oil - but they might know of some solutions.

You can use a oil absorbent such as hi- dri or others used in auto shops to soak up the oil ,let that soak it up and sweep i up and use a product by krud kutter for driveways its a water based formula so it will not damage your concrete its a great product used it at work all the time.

I use a spray carburetor cleaner such as Gum-Out. Spray it on and blot out the spot with paper towels. When it dries, no more oil stain.

I have used dry cement powder ,sprinkle it on lightly,allow to sit for a minute or so and wipe off. suggest to try a very small area where it would not be noticed as a trial first.

It is basically kerosene.......so hop over to an auto shop and get some concrete cleaner. There are some super cleaners but start locally. (one super cleaner is pour-n-restore)
