Noob questions
 
Hey guys. Just wondering, I have an 89 turbo and i was told that i have to change the oil in a special way because i am dealing with a turbo now instead of an N/A engine. is this true? Or can i just change the oil in the car like any normal car. Second, standard gasoline is ok to use right?

Change the oil every 3,000 miles or every 3 months, whichever comes 1st.

Your boosted Supra requires 91+ Octane.

Priming the Oil Filter

Lucky for us, our oil filter is upside down when mounted on the engine.
That helps us prime the filter.
Priming the filter means to put oil in it then then screw it on so that there is oil upon start up.
I would do that for any car if I could.

Some other like to take it a step further and have the engine turn over before it starts.
Some ways to do that would be to remove an ignition wire or the EFI fuse, but I don't go that far.
