Need information about owner's manual

I have a used 240sx that came without a owner's manual. Can someone tell me the octane to use, what oil is recommended? Also what should the psi on the tires be. Thanks.

Re: Need information about owner's manual

its stated that you use 91 for the 240, "For max performance". But u can use 87, u get good mileage. oil is 5w-30 in cold temp, 10w-30/40 for reg. and 20w-50 for high temp. Mobil oil is the best. i used 20w-50 last oil change. psi according to what it had already is 35. Hope this helps u out. other specs should say somewhere in ur 240, glove compartment, gas lid, door, etc. Download a service manual from vsiev.

it is recommended 91 but if 91 isn't available, lower octane can be used. The psi on the tires depends on the tire; if it says max 25, you dont' want to put 35 psi.
