motor oil for my 90 Integra GS

[rody084]

Hi,
What kind of oil is the best that I can put into my integra? something in the $5 a bottle range would be best. The previous owner said he put penzoil synthetic...
I do not know about oils much, and I was wondering which is the best brand and kind that I should put into my car on its next oil change.
thanx in advanced for the help

Penzoil sucks. Most everyone I know uses Mobil1 Synthetic.

i wasnt able to find mobil1 10w30 synthetic... which is what I believe my 1990 Integra GS takes. Any other suggestions that I could find at kragen?

[rody084]

the only synthetic mobil1 they have is the: 15W50SYN... can that be used? I do not know what the numbers mean in the oil names

I use Mobil1 also and so does my boy with a 90 teg...well used to, now he put he b16a/b20z into a 92 hb...

You should be able to get it at any halfway decent auto parts store. Actually, WalMart even carries 5 qt jugs.

Depending on where you live, I'd think about 5w30. I live in Colorado, and I run 5w30 in the summers.

i am having trouble finding places that sell mobil 1 10W30... what is another good brand? at kragen they sell: chevron, castrol, quaker state, valvoline and penzoil

[ebpda9]

castrol is a decent brand. that's the only oil that i can use without triggering my oil light. :mad:

I use the same shit... Works awesome. Have been using it for 60,000 miles. It is worth all $5/quart.

I noticed that... I have bought mine from Wal-Mart and Costco. The 5qt jug is cheaper then buying 6 individual qts.
