Good morning all. This has been somewhat talked about but I didn't really find a solid answer. I want to buy a Honda Clarity PHEV. My current lifestyle means I would most likely only be using the engine a few times a year. I had some questions regarding the oil and change interval. 1. Using...

Thanks all! I am doing the clean and flush on the cooling system now, and waiting for the filter and HPL cleaner to come in to do the oil.

Yea, it has some bent fins from a life of normal use, but overall the majority of the fins look fine. I don't see any buildup near the cap or when I look down in, so either the coolant was changed properly or it's a newer radiator, though it doesn't look that new.

Hey all, new here. I am wondering what off the shelf oil filter has the highest flow rate. My use case is to have as good flow as possible but not severe enough to try and find a dedicated racing filter. Oil will be changed seasonally, and the vehicle will only be used for racing events, so hard...
