Have free scan for codes done at Autozone or Pep Boys, and go from there. Eliminates guess work & unnecessary parts replaced.

Need to know oil type and capacity for a 1994 Oldsmobile Ninety Eight Regency Elite

10W30 will be fine for a car with under 100 K miles. I usually go up to 10W40 when driving in very hot temps or when my moter is getting a bit more worn. It takes 5 Qts. with a filter change. 4 Qts without.

How do i know if my '94 olds ninety-eight is turbocharged or not?

I assume you mean Supercharged. Look at your engine. If it is supercharged, you will see a large component with a shaft and pulley at the drive belt side of the engine right on top of the engine. It is usually grey or white in colour.
