Hello,
I am a long time lurker but first time poster and I have learned a lot from the vast amount of knowledge here. I would like to pose a question concerning OCI for my 1998 Nissan Frontier 2.4L with 157,000 miles.
My daily commute to work is only about 2.5 miles one way. However, the truck gets driven about 30 miles round trip on the interstate once or twice a week. I currently run MS5K 5W-30 with a 5k OCI and a Purolator Classic filter. The filter is a royal pain to access on this model so I am considering switching to a Fram Ultra and using it for three 5k OCIs or two 7.5k OCIs. I recently scored some of the Dollar General BOGO Castrol GTX HM Syn Blend. Given my driving habits for this truck, would this oil be alright for 7.5k or should I still go with the 5k OCI? Any thoughts and/or recommendations is appreciated.
