    Amsoil signature series too thick for my honda?

    I'm pretty sure honda specs 0 or 5w-20 for synthetic for my 2.4 but amsoil signature series is only availabe in 0w-30. I have had 5w-30 in it before, conventional when I got the car, running on 5w-20 now, and I didn't notice a difference just wondering if you guys think it would be okay to run...

    Napa gold any good?

    Went to napa to pick up an oil filter today, was going to go P1 but they only had Napa products. So I got the "top of the line" napa filter, which is a "gold". From what it says on the box seems like a quality filter. I'm running it with Mobil 1 EP and was going to run a 7-8k oci in my honda...

    Engines are "spec'd for 0w-20 Oil"..fact or???

    I have 5w-20 synpower in my K series now with 5w-20 M1 EP going in next but I am in the same boat, kindof nervous about the 20wt oils. Obviously not that nervous, cause I will run them, just something about these new thin oils...idk. I mean I saw the thread about someone running 0w-10 and it...

    diesel oil in a gas car

    A friend of mine actually went into AZ to get Rotella 5w40 for his Jetta 1.8t and the worker would not sell it to him once he told him what car it was for. He kept saying it was a diesel oil and wouldn't work in his car and he couldn't buy it. Now he took it to his mechanic and has some 5w30 in...

    current fill oci suggestions?

    No warranty. And I've had the Mobil EP in the garage for a year or two just want to use it up but then my stash is empty so I was thinking of stocking up on whats cheap while I can get it. I know my littler 4 cylinder doesn't "need" synthetic and I think it would run fine on dino, PYB or FS, for...

    current fill oci suggestions?

    I got my oil changed with Synpower 5w-20 about 4,500 miles ago, still in my honda now. It was driven on short trips a couple miles often being on a college campus but also quite a few 100+mile trips. I'm thinking of changing it out soon with the Mobil 1 EP waiting in my garage. Just wondering...

    nitrogen tire fill plus air?

    OK so I just took my winter tires off and put my stock rims/tires back on. They were filed with nitrogen from when I bought them but were 4-7psi low so I topped them all off at 34 but just with an air compressor. I doubt theres any issues but I assume its okay to mix the two? Just wanted to check

    Tell the history of the viscosity you have used.

    Thats awesome. I have a soft spot for mustangs especially shelbys. I'm sure you still had fun driving it into the ground. Anyway..back on topic

    New Mustang Boss 302 5W-50

    Originally Posted By: JasonC The rods and the pistons are different in the Boss 5.0 vs. standard 5.0 That would make sense because I remember before the 5.0 actually came out everyone was speculating how the pistons would hold up to mods/tuning/boost and there was a lot of skepticism.

    oem honda filters any good?

    Just curious as to how the oem blue honda oil filters are? I am due for an oil change soon and will be running Mobil 1 synthetic extended performance for 6-8k in my honda just wondering if the honda filter would be up for the task? Open to suggestions as well, I know P1 is a popular choice...

    shelf life?

    thanks guys. I figured it was okay, just wanted to check with the powers that be on here first. Bought it for my old mustang but the 5w-20 is recommended for my honda as well if I'm not mistaken. I'm assuming a 6000-8000 mile OCI on a 4 cylinder honda like this wouldn't be a stretch for a...

    shelf life?

    I know this might have been answered just looking for a quick yes or no. I forgot I had some mobil 1 extended performance 5w-20 that I bought probably 2 years ago sitting on the shelf in my garage. Gets between 30s-high 90s in there between the winter and summer. Is it still safe to use? Thanks...

    Pennzoil Conventional ok?

    Sounds like someone woke up and had a big glass of haterade. Did OP even say it was a V6? And do you have some proof against what everyone here recommends saying pennzoil products aren't all that good.

    How often do you change the airfilter??

    I'm new to this whole debate, up until now I have normally just had it changed every other 3k oil change at the quick lube basically, now I realize I've been getting ripped off. If I can get 20k out of an oem, or paper filter from autozone I'd be more than happy.
