so here we go first post on this forum,
anyways i have a 2002 nissan Frontier V6 4wd.
i have three different jobs(im 18)my opening job is about 12 miles to get there, my second job is my landscaping company so ill hull mulch rock etc. if i have to in my bed.generaly i do my towing with other trucks. then my third job is only 1 mile from my house.
on weekend ill drive from my house to Amherst VA which is were my GF lives and thats about a hour drive
i live in VA so temperatures vary from cold(-5to 0 to last few days at 100)
im on here mainly because i had to put a new engine in my truck. my truck only has 97,k miles, but the previous owner did not take care of the engine. long story short, i went in to have my headgasket done along with getting everything machined, now im putting a new engine in it.....
with this engine it comes with a one year unlimited mile warranty. but the warranty says to change the oil every 3,k
id like to run synthetics... i was thinking AMsoil for a long time, in my truck i was running castrol edge, then my dad started using mobil 1 in his new f150 king ranch.....
so should i not worry about changing my oil after the break in period? so first 300 miles, change oil, then then go to 3000, then would going to every 6k be fine? and what oil would be best? i just dont want to buy another friggin engine!
also on a side note, when i have time and not working 72-86 hours a week, i do like to wheel my truck....
so driving is anywhere and inbetween slow and easy to running the pee out of it..
thanks for your time
