How to use SelectedIndexChanged-Event of ComboBox

I have a ComboBox with two read only values: white fusion and silver fusion.
How do I get the correct method to run based on selecting each one in a ComboBox? The methods are just pulling an Integer from a SQL table and put it into a TextBox. 

private void cboOilVehicle_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (cboVehicle.SelectedIndexChanged == "White Fusion")
    {
        whiteFusionOil();
    }
    else
    {
        silverFusionOil();    
    }
}

private void cboOilVehicle_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  if (cboVehicle.SelectedIndex == 0)
  {
    whiteFusionOil();
  }
  else
  {
    silverFusionOil();    
  }
}

Edit:

The name of the control must be cboOilVehicle (Line 1) or cboVehicle (Line 3), it can't be both. You have to decide which is correct

If you are going to be comparing the text directly, use the Text property of the combobox:

private void cboOilVehicle_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (cboVehicle.Text == "White Fusion")
    {
        whiteFusionOil();
    } 
    else
    {
        silverFusionOil();    
    }
}

Try this below

if(cboVehicle.SelectedItem.Text == "White Fusion")
{

whiteFusionOil();

}
else 
{
silverFusionOil();

}
