Oil Capacity

[TheChronic]

Hi all. Could someone tell me how much oil I need when doing an oil change? I haven't recieved my manual yet from Honda(bought car used), and the weather finally broke here so I wanna go ahead and do it, I kinda get the feeling it hasn't been done yet....(9600 miles). any recomendations on brand are welcome too, but I'm gonna do a a search on that one.

Thanks!
Mikie

Yea I just read that one. Gotta get a set of those wrenches when I get my oil.

But five quarts and you'll have a little left.

I always put 5qt. Never had it go above the top hole.

I always do four first then check if i need more afterwards, but I still have to place a half more quart afterwards. Add four, check for leaks then add what is needed. Wouldn't want to pour that 4+ quarts then turned on engine then found a leak, heheh.
