Hey everyone,
Getting ready to change the oil in our 1997 Civic. It calls for 5W-30, and that is what we have been using. Had some left over Mobil 1 0W-40 FS from an oil change in our dad's truck. Around three quarts left over. I was thinking of using it in the Civic. What do you think? Is it too thick?
We have been having temperatures in the 90's around here. I was thinking a little thicker might be better in the heat.
Also, would there be any issues using the Mobil 1 0W-40 with seals that old? I believe the oil pan seal is still the original?
Thanks,
