Hey everyone, I just picked up a 1992 240sx not too long ago. It didn't come with a factory manual so I don't know what kind or how much motor oil to use for an oil change. Please help.

if you have the KA it's about 4 quarts (it most likely has an oil leak so buy an extra quart to top off the dipstick, so when you do your oil next you're not too low). and since you live in ca and it's summer and your car is old w a bunch of miles (i assume over 100k)... use 10W-30... i have the 95 w the KA and i'm rockin valvoline 10w-30 high mileage.

hope that helps
