What do you folks think about oil changes on cars that are not driven
regularly. I have had my Tiger stored and although I start it periodicaly it
has had very little run time on a Mobil 1 oil change. I have not driven the
car for quite some time, my free time did not allow for joy riding.  I just
got new tires for it so I intend to start driving the car. I changed the oil
several years ago but never drove the car. It literally has less than 1 or 2
hours running time on the oil change. The engine is a fresh rebuild so it is
not loaded with sludge. I have heard the talk about the need to change the oil
based on the time that has passed but with a clean engine and synthetic oil, I
wonder how important this is. Let me know what you think.-Brad
