Oil does not wear out it just gets dirty. Change it every 7,500 -10,000 miles if you use synthetic depending on how you drive.

Can you use synthetic oil in a small Kolar engine?

If your engine leaks oil, no you should not use synthetic oil because it will clean sludge and can make the leak worse. If your engine does not leak oil, I would highly recomend using synthetic oil(Pennzoil Ultra 10W30 from Walmart is a good and pretty cheap choice). As long as your engine does not leak oil using synthetic oil is a great choice regardless of how old it is.

What type of oil does a 1994 Nissan altima take?

The Owner's Manual specifies 10W-30. I use Quaker State Full Synthetic but traditionally, one uses non-synthetic engine oil for a 4-cylinder engine. As long as you use 10W-30, you really can't go wrong. Try not to mix synthetic and non-synthetic oils. Check what was used in the last oil change and use as close to that as you can.
