Chevrolet recommends having your 1984 Chevrolet G30’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your G30 may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust.
