To tell grub to use older kernal everytime you can refer to the official documentation or this link. In short, you need to change the value of GRUB_DEFAULT in the file /etc/default/grub. To know what value you should put in for GRUB_DEFAULT, you have to refer to the order of boot entries listed in the grub menu. This information comes from the file /boot/grub/grub.cfg. This basically involves counting the menuentries and matching it with the position of your old-kernal as listed in the grub menu.
