Honda Civic Engine Question

[Jack]

Hi there people

I have a Honda Civic 5 Door Hatchback VTI-S 1.7 Automatic, and I’m wondering if specific brand of spark plugs are recommended for Honda’s

You should install either Denso or NGK plugs in your Honda. Stay away from Champion!

Thanks for the reply, do you happen to have a suggestion in regards to oil, like should I use only Honda Oil’s for the civic or is it brand with just a different sticker?

[Lorrin Barth]

I didn’t know Honda sold Honda branded oil but it wouldn’t surprise me if they do. Look in the owner’s manual for the correct viscosity of oil to use and change it on a regular basis. Other than that most any oil you find at Walmart or in an Automotive parts store will do. Probably more important is using a good oil filter. Avoid Fram.

The honda oil is really no different than your average oil with the same viscosity, but I would highly recommend honda oil filters

And always NGk plugs. I believe that is an NGk part number…

Always use NGK. I believe they are oem recommended to.

Also for filters if you can get an oem filter. I believe Honda sells these by the box but they are worth the cash.
