The 2006 mitsubishi eclipse gt's 2.4 liter 4cylinder engine is equipped with 4.5 us quarts of 5w-20 or 5w-30 with a filter. the eclipse's3.8 liter 6-cylinder engine holds4.5 us quarts of the same lubricants (5w-20/5w-30). oil and filter changes should be scheduled every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months if using fully synthetic lubricants, or every 3,000-5,000 miles or 6 months, if filling with conventional oil. the advantages of using synthetic vs conventional products include better lubrication among moving parts, a longer interval between service appointments and enhanced effectiveness under adverse weather conditions. a motor oil with a thinner viscosity moves more easily in colder temperatures, coating engine components efficiently and providing better protection against friction and corrosion.
