Why did you post this link? It talks about what filter to use and not to use. It doesn't say anything about what motor oil to use and what weight.oc_civic said:

DONT double the filter by accident.. that was the pointDetainedCivic said:Why did you post this link? It talks about what filter to use and not to use. It doesn't say anything about what motor oil to use and what weight.

if you read the thread.. it talks about him doubling the filter.. and causing the failure..
Get a quality dino oil, castrol gtx, chevron supreme & havoline are both great too for hondas lots of moly! If you plan on going past 5K OCI's or you beat the piss out of your engine you might wanna consider a syn. oil like mobil 1! I have run several oil analysis' on my car including one with havoline, one with gtx and at 5K the oil was still in great shape. I use this stuff in my oil, very cheap and has proven time & time again to be very effective http://www.lubecontrol.com/lube.htm
I highly suggest one of these, just cause you use an expensive oil doesn't mean your engine likes it and is producing good wear #'s. http://www.blackstone-labs.com/free_test_kit.html

I run chevron supreme 10w30 in my em1 along with lube control lc20. My engine get's better wear #'s with this combo than it does with expensive mobil 1 ! If you do get a syn oil make sure it's a real syn. oil not a hydrocracked dino like castrol syntec, the green syntec is the good stuff!
