Volvo mechanic says to use Valvoline 30W... 200 1983

posted by  someone claiming to be dazsa on  Wed Mar 12 14:59 CST 2003 [RELATED]

My Volvo mechanic says the only oil to use is the dino Valvoline 30W in both of my Volvos (83 and 90 240's). What is the deal with brands of dino? Does the hydrocracking (I think that is the term) make a difference with brands? Basically, what brands perform well with regular changes (every 3 to 4K)? I have read all of the FAQ stuff and no one gets specific except with synthetics. Help with any advice.

Thanks,

Don
