2L kombi oil and servicing question.


Hey everyone,
How often should a 2L kombi engine be serviced? And what type of oil should be used?
I service my van quite often, probably more than needed! Was just wondering what everyone else does.
Thanks,
Alex.

I always did ours every 5000km's, which was about every 6 months.

Oil, filter and adjust rockers.

Every 10,000 I changed the plugs, points and condenser also.

Does it have hydraulic tappets?

I do every 5000k's and do tappets at the same time. I've always used Penrite. 10 years now.
