How Often to Change 1985 Isuzu Impulse Oil

Not sure how or where to get your Isuzu Impulse’s oil changed? Look no further than 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.”

Your 1985 Impulse’s oil should be changed according to Isuzu’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Outside of Isuzu-recommended oil change intervals, your Impulse may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Isuzu recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Isuzu Impulse. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
