I just purchased a '96 Honda 2.7 V6 and one of the first things I did was to change out whatever was in there from the PO to Gold GC 0-30 , and it certainly seems that this engine just loves it. I have green but purposely chose the gold for the first switch untill I get to know this engine better, but i have no reservations in predicting that the gold is as good as the green for this app.
(PO: "oh the oil was probably changed 500 mi ago", **!, it came out very brown and about 10w-40 it looked like. 80k mi. on the engine, looks not sludged but not pristine either on the peek down the vc oil fill. But the engine is smooooth., and plenty of power.)
Yes GC lives!
