    i only used my van only twice in a span of 6 months.. Last april pa sa Zambales and Lucena quezon..

    now po kasi gagamitin ulit out of Town.

    Do i need to change the oil filter and oil? or oil nalang palitan ko?

    or hindi na? 700kms. palang kasi natatakbo on mineral oil...
    Pag mineral oil 6 mos. Lang talaga. But you don't have to change the oil and fuel filter dahil halos di naman nagamit.

    i confess that because it is cheaper, i use the 5000 km rule rather than the 6 month rule. traditional mineral oil.
    and when i sold my van 9 years and almost 100K km after i bought her new, the van engine was still in good working order..

    Honestly ang nasa isip ko change oil ako Siguro at least once a yr.. Or 2500kms. Pero kung dapat talaga magpalit ng oil... Magpapalit nalang ako.. Drum drum naman oil namin dito sa generator...

    Better check if the oil you use for your generator is appropriate for your vehicle... generally speaking multigrade oil is better than monograde oils (mineral or synthetic)... which is what is commonly used for gensets.

    then yung a.c. pag hindi nagagamit nawawalan ng freon sa may shaft seal nag leleak i think i need to change my ac compressor... 14 years old na kasi yung van...





    Car aircon compressors that are belt driven must be exercised or ran at least quarterly to lubricate the shaft seal to reduce refrigerant leak. It is similar to a bottle of wine, you need to store it tilted to keep the cork stopper soaked
