Oil Changes for 1986 Plymouth Caravelle

Not sure how or where to get your Plymouth Caravelle’s oil changed? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know all about motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Your 1986 Caravelle’s oil should be changed according to Plymouth’s recommended oil change intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Caravelle may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Plymouth recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Plymouth Caravelle. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 1986 Plymouth Caravelle motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Plymouth has recommendations as to whether conventional or synthetic oil is the ideal engine oil for your 1986 Caravelle. Motor oil helps lubricate the engine’s moving parts, maintain proper engine temperature, and prevent harmful substances from accumulating in the engine.
