Hey Folks,

I have a semi-Vanagon related question for you all.

I drive my Vanagon about 18 - 25k a year. I get my oil changed every 4k
miles, with no problems.

My girlfriend on the other hand, puts about 2200 miles on her car (1988
Nissan Sentry, with 68k) a year, driving it once a week, and sometimes
letting it sit for 2 - 3 weeks at a time.

When should she change her oil?  Her total miles for the last year was
2,550. She had the oil changed recently (June I believe), and wanted to know
... when she should change again, knowing it sits a lot, and is not used
frequently.

Just curious,
