And remember...
For older engines ( 5 years +)you should use a slightly thicker viscocity rated oil - ( such as 15-30w etc) for extra lubication for older, worn engines ;)

mate 2 good...thanx heaps bro
hey benjamin, does honda make the 15-30w oil for the older car, if so is it the feo, or do we have to get a non honda brand?
just another question, is there a special feo oil for the type r?
if so is it possibe to use it on the b16a?
thanks
firstly, let me iterate what others have said. You can't go wrong with Honda FEO oil. Think of it as, a genuine Honda part (so to speak).
well since we're on the topic of oil & inparticular Honda FEO oil.
s2k, i think there are two types of Honda FEO oil that i've seen.
FEO 20W-50 & High Performance FEO 10W-30.
I "imagine" typically they use the HP FEO 10W-30 on all dohc vtec engines (not sure about the S2000 or NSX though), and the other one for the rest of the passenger car engines (not sure about sohc vtec).
Anyhow, i was wondering if anyone knew if the HP FEO 10W-30 is mineral, semi-synthetic or fully synthetic ?

But that's in malaysia...
But i remember a few years back, Honda did have a FEO that was semi-synthetic especially made for DOHC VTEC engines.. but then stopped producing it.
Thanks ATSE. Think i might email them too.
This is from Honda AUS website, but the link isn't working properly. This is what i could get :
Honda FEO (SAE 10W-30 API SJ) is a Genuine Honda Engine Oil that has been specifically formulated by Honda Motor Company for use in all Honda high performance engines (including VTEC and i-VTEC). The inherent properties of Honda FEO will ensure maximum protection for your engine whilst maintaining peak performance and fuel economy.
