When to Change 1991 Geo Storm Engine Oil

Not sure how or where to get your Geo Storm’s oil changed? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Geo recommends having your 1991 Geo Storm’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your Storm 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 notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Geo if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Geo Storm. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your Storm by taking into account your driving habits, and mileage.

1991 Geo Storm Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Geo Storm? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, engine parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your Storm’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Geo oil on my own? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Geo Storm exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Geo Storm oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Geo Storm oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • What does it mean if my Geo Storm oil light comes on? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Geo Storm oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Geo Storm? It's recommended that you replace your Geo Storm oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
