[DMCForum] Re: Oil Change Intervals



My oil change interval (all vehicles) is 2,500 miles.

An oil change is any car's easiest, least expensive, and most
important  procedure. Think about it: oil touches nearly every moving
part in engine. 

Is only $7-$10 in parts and 20 minutes labor (don't even have to jack
the truck up, which is pushing 200,000 miles BTW -- don't tell timely
oil changes aren't worth time or money). Question isn't "why change
oil frequently?", is "why not?"

According to Volvo literature: Except for larger bore, B27 and B28
internally identical, INCLUDING IMFAMOUS OIL PASSAGES. Reason they
clog up is people running crappy solidified oil. Nothing at all wrong
with PRV camshafts if they receive proper lubrication. Plenty of Volvo
260's with 6 digits on odometer.
