    Try useing synthetic oil. You will save on oil changes and the oil dont brake down . It only gets dirty. You can change the oil evey 5000 miles as well. TRy useing a engine additive as well for the type of engine you have .BGs is a great one to get compression back .It has done me well on my 184000 milage Tacoma. Also synthetic oil can sometimes stop oil leaks...It dont break down and turn acitic.
