It would benefit the engine to change the oil at least once every season change (assuming you are not keeping it inside a climate controlled garage). This would remove any condensation that may accumulate in the crankcase. So once a year would be fine in most cases if your only putting 4,000 miles a year on it.
As for the oil, you need to use API – SAE 0w20. You may use Synthetic motor oil if it meets the same requirements given for conventional motor oil; it displays the API Certification Seal, and it is the proper weight.
Drain and refill, w/filter is 4.50 qts.
