Hello everyone. I wanted to get a solid answer regarding the condition of what to do in regards to my motor oil. I have a 95 240sx with a redtop (swapped by previous owner). I got the car in 2005, maybe 200 miles at most.
The car mostly sits due to me not using it as a daily driver. When I got the car I immediately changed the filter and oil with a pureone filter and mobil 1 full synthetic oil. The oil turned black quite quickly. My question is, what can I do? I don't drive the car often at all(NYC roads). At most in the spring and summer only. During the rest of the year it sits and I start it up about once a week. I am also thinking its a fuel issue, the fuel might be to rich. I also thought about putting one quart of atf fluid, but don't want to risk blowing a bearing. My best self suggestion is to run synthetic, but this won't do much help because I BARELY drive the car. If I would have driven the car more the synthetic would have slowly cleaned the internals, due to synthetics nature. At this point im stumped :confused: . Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
