Position of object pronoun "lo" - when is it *not* OK to attach it to an infinitive?

Position of object pronoun "lo" - when is it *not* OK to attach it to an infinitive?

Instead of "... lo habría podido utilizar" (in the fourth sentence), is it considered clumsy [or 'bad style'?] to write: "habría podido utilizarlo"?

Hola David,

that would have been another correct answer, as good as the others. You can place "lo" at the very end too, right after the infinitive. We will add that possibility to the exercise. 

Saludos,

Inma
