The Honda 1.5L turbo is banned in China bc of fuel dilution related issues.

The Sierra NV mtn ranges still have snow on top here in July. I believe the peaks on I-80 are around 12k ft

That’s not the point of cool down time, the point of cool, down time to allow the turbo to spin down to idle speed, and the bearings cool. You drive your car you come up to a stoplight off the freeway that turbo still is probably spinning over 10,000 RPMs. If you shut it off, you have no coolant...

I always wanted one. Graduated HS class of 1995.

Nice ride. The old school sport compact car. I had the first gen 2003 SRT-4 until I got rear ended at 40-50mph. I miss the car.

Idk. Filters are cheap. 10-12 bucks and you can even find cheaper ones. I don’t see a point of stretching that out.

Why would you swap oil filters every other oil change? They’re cheap, and why would want to contaminate fresh oil with used oil in the filter?

My 2015 Acura doesn’t have vcm, yes I’m a thickies. Only time the engine makes power is 3800-7000. Yes I much rather have a HTHS >3.5. The S2K when it first came out had a redline of 9200. Honda recommended 10/30. They had some valve spring issues running that high rpm

The fee mfg don’t care about us, they only care about cafe and getting the vehicle past the warranty. And as you know, Toyota tundra engine problems they’ve now

I use M1 0/40 in my 2024 Ram 3.6L

Weird bc my 2015 acura MDX J35 supposedly had it, I’ve never felt it, and no eco light ever comes on. Unless it came in a mid model change. My date of mfg is 2014 sold as a 15. Engine does see 3K OCI M1 ESP 0/30. Previous M1 0/40

The reason for 0/8 0/16 is just dumb. It’s all about cafe and I personally could care less if it suffered a .01 mpg loss bc I choose to use a little thicker oil like a 0/30

In your accord. I would honestly run M1 0/40 with that 2L Turbo and always allow for a min of 1 min cool down time before shutting it off.

The UOA does not you anything In regards to the amount of heat inside those bearings, the rings, the turbo gets extremely hot, extreme high rpm. Only one reason for 20wt is cafe and the mfg trying to squeeze every drop of mpg out of an engine. The only thing they care about is the engine makes...

If you can get your hand on the euro manual, I guarantee you it’s gonna tell you to run pretty much whatever you want unless you want the best fuel economy at 0: 20 but other than that Honda is super easy on what they recommend outside of the United States

Injectors cause this? Burning the cheapest gas you could buy? In mine, I only ran chevron or shell, 1 bottle of Redline fuel cleaner every 5k at OCI, every 15k sprayed a can of intake cleaner down the throttle body.

That’s what happens when you never do a valve adjustment

75/90 75/85. Not much difference. No noticeable mpg that you could register. It’s not like drag racing where a thousands of a second can make break a race

What’s wrong with sticking to the Iong time industry standard 75/90

I don’t pay attention to those claims bc I don’t run long OCI.
