	How often should I change oil on my 1993 9000 CSE 2.0 LPT? Words like "frequently" and "infrequently" doesn't tell very much.

I also try to keep the short runs about town to the beater cars. The turbos are generally driven on longer trips (60+ miles) with only one or two stops - heavy foot though . I also use synthetics and Saab/Volvo oil filters. My Volvo turbo is still going strong and it is a 1982. I suppose it also depends on how long you want to keep your 9000 running. You can do alot of synthetic oil changes for the price of a turbo charger.

It's still definitely a no no. Waste oil can seep into the ground water and pollute your drinking water.

Actually I think it is a federal law (if not it is a New York State law) requiring anyone who sells oil or car batteries to accept the same at no cost. Used oil is then either sent for recycling or fuel blending and burning. As for the car batteries, the lead in the battery actually makes it worth something as scrap. Stephen B. NYC

After all, the trucks that rumble around carting waste oil have to be picking it up from somewhere. I think all Australian state and territory governments have their own version of an EPA (Environmental Protection Authority as it's called here in NSW) which enforces legislation for dumping waste products, including oils. Might see if the local council landfill site accepts waste oils - would be a sensible place to do it.

Here in the UK, I haven't seen oil collection at auto parts stores ( possibly considered to be hazardous in case of an oil spill ? ) but they certainly take your old batteries. The council depots take both though. Graham

Erk ! Landfill ? That means the oil will eventually reach the water table unless the site is situated in a very deep bed of impermeable clay ! Best thing to do is to recycle it. Graham

You can make an entire tank of recyclable oil unusable if you do.

Oil is the least of your worries - there are far nastier things that can leach out of landfill. All landfill sites (certainly in the UK) have to be dug into impermeable ground. Best thing to do is to recycle it. Not really - recycling waste oil isn't an option. The energy cost of cleaning it up would be huge. The only sensible thing to do with it is a controlled high temperature incineration. -- Grunff
