without an alternator, why would I drive to a shop and do an oil change? cuz I cant. I would stall every time the car stopped until the battery dies completely.

It does what it sounds, measure the amount of oxygen in the exhaust.

Good fully synthetic oil will help you save on gas and maintenance in a long term. Get AMSOIL oil and filter extended service combination.
They have 25k mile oils and filters in the product line. It is absolutely the best you can get.
Enquire about at their web page for your type of car. You initially pay higher price but save a lot later.
Gotta work some exta hours to help you pay for this stuff.
