Re: Fram filters, waterpumps and other misc.....Slick 50 for instance!!!? 200 '86

Maybe I'm in category 3, but if I go the synthetic route just when and how often should I change my oil????

perhaps I'll catch you up in a later thread.

I am totally inthrawed with the latest mechanic either as I just reread the modest bill he gave me... he charged me for the oil (I bought including the infamous Slick 50)... but at the modest 34 bucks he did find a few things I needed to help the old volvo.

I think the parts store guy said something about synthetics as "teflon" but maybe I got it mixed up with the Slick 50??? Hmmm as the Volvo only needs 4 qts max.... at about 6 bucks a qt. and a good oil filter about 5 bucks..... about 30 bucks total plus labor. I am guessing you recommend changing it every 5000 miles ???
