Best Oil/Fuel Filters

[luffin]

In my opinion, those viscosity are thicker than needed for a Civic EK. Fuel efficiency would suffer a bit. With my 2001 Accord before, I use either 5w40 (Shell HX7) or 10w40 (Valvoline) semi-synthetic. You can also use the 10w30 mineral oil from Honda. Another good suggestion is Zic 10w40.

Chineck ko naman sa manual sir pasok siya. Kaya gusto ko rin sanang itry ung thicker oils kasi minsan nalelessen daw nito ung ticking. Totoo po ba to?

Yang zic sir parang wala kong nakikita dito samin, yang valvoline meron.

I tried using 20w50 on my 2001 Accord before thinking that thicker viscosity will fare better for older cars. I observed that with thicker viscosity, the engine takes a longer to warm up properly. I changed oil after a month (using 5w40) and the engine felt livelier on a daily basis.

You can order Zic or Xteer at Lazada or Shopee.

Sir chineck ko sa lazada, eto ba ung zic x7 fully synthetic? 1100 pesos.

Sir ok lang ba itry ung " italian tune up" kapag may ticking valves. Nasa taas po ung reason kung bakit gusto kong itry. Thanks.

[StockEngine]

Yes sir sa upper part left side, hindi naman siya malakas, halos hindi nga rinig pag nakasara ung hood.

Isingit ko na rin, bale more than 2 months na kong puro short drive gusto ko sana itry ung "italian tune up" na nabasa ko dito. Wala naman ako balak iredline, siguro mga 4k rpm lang. Balak ko itry pag nachange oil. Ok naman ung makina ko, no leaks, ok ang performance at fc. Mejo may ingay lang talaga ung valves. Makakasama ba kung itry ko ung italian tune up.

Mga sir dito ko na naitanung since nagreply agad si sir stock. Salamat.

bro, italian tune ups(sustained high revs) wont fix a ticking sound. using oil for too long(over a year?) might have been the issue. mineral grade oils viscosity thins over time(40w becomes 30w or worse 20w or less) when this happens the protection is lessened. I suggest a shorter oil change interval.

Okay sir. Thanks

Any feedback po sa dalawa, havoline formula 20w 50 at havoline sf 20w 40?

Lagi kong gamit ung dilaw ng shell mineral oil, pero napansin ko ngayon may mahinang valve tick ung makina ko kaya gusto kong magpalit. Anu kaya mas maganda sa dalawa?

Valve tick ba talaga? Baka con rod bearing yung nadidinig mo

if you find your valves noisy, have them adjusted, po.
using heavier oil to quiet-ize the engine, might lead to bigger problems.

Nagsearch ako ng mga tunog sa youtube sir mukang valve tick, tsaka wala naman nagbago sa performance. Tanung ko na lang din pag nagpachange oil.

Doc makakasira ba ang ticking valves kung hindi ko muna siya ipaayos? Sa shell ako nagpapachange oil, hindi ata sila nagaadjust dun. Usually how much ung paadjust?

the ticking sound is not a good gauge of proper valve clearance. some engines do and must tick, kasi.
valve clearance numbers vary from engine to engine, po. best to consult shops and mechanics that have those numbers, and know how to adjust them. civic is a popular engine. you should have little problem looking for the qualified shop/mechanic. the tsikoteers here might even drop a few names and addresses.
google engine valve clearance issues, po. suffice to say, too large and too small are both detrimental to the engine and/or valves.

Valve clearances usually nakalagag under the hood. One of them stickers there.

Meron din sa owners manual. It wont take long to find out where. Mas matagal pa convincr sarili to open the darn book

Actually sir since nakuha ko ung auto wala ng nakalagay na kahit anung sticker under the hood, meron lang ung sa takip ng fuse box. Few times ko na rin nabasa ung manual, walang nakalagay about valve adjustments, baka siguro kulang ung nasakin, 2nd hand ko lang nabili.

Very basic lang alam ko sa auto doc, pag may naramdaman search sa net, youtube, tanung tanung dito, tapos saka ko ipapagawa sa mekaniko.

Wala na yung sticker na parang ganito? When we still had the civic, albeit a 97 model vti, i vaguely remember reading this in the manual, towards the last few pages. The indexed summary of the manuel does wonders searching.

Kung wala talaga, find out the what engine you have, ph12, ph16, b16,etc then google.

Wala na sir, 1.5 ung sakin non vtec. Ung manual ko may mga hiwahiwalay na rin, nilagyan ko lang ng tape, baka namisplace ko ung ibang page. Try ko na lang isearch.

Salamat mga sir!
