Just wondering, what type of oil is recommended for the B16A? I've been using 5W-30. Is there a better grade to use? Thanks.

Oil depends on climate, 5w30 and 10w30 are pretty much universal to everywhere.

wow. i thought 5w30 was for lawn mowers.
you'd have to live in a really cold climate to warrant 5w30
down here in the new orleans area we use 10w30 and 10w40 universally for all vehicles.

The service manual says to use 5w30, or 10w30 in areas where it's warmer. I use 5w30, but I also live in NY.
