quick noob question
i know this is the last thing all you want to read, but i just bought a 90 integra ls and i don't have an owners manual and i cant find a DIY on doing the oil change, i have searched for 20 minutes. How many quarts of oil do i put in? *Flamesuit on!*
PLEASE TELL ME!!
PLEASE TELL ME!!
Dont trip..
Buy 6 quarts, it never hurts to have extra oil in your garage. Start with 4 quarts, check it, and then just go from there.. At least your changing your own oil rather than just taking it to jiffy lube. good job!

can anyone read it from their helms/owners manual for me or direct me in the right direction? i would perfer to know exactly how many with a oil filter. Thanks in advance
I think you're being a little harsh there, but to the OP...starting with 4 quarts and adding should be fine. It is somewhere between 4 and 5 quarts. I just glanced around on team-integra.net under their articles and there wasn't a specific number for your car. If you spend some time searching you can most likely find what you're looking for.

Damn guys, give the kid a break. 4 quarts even with a filter change. Start the car for about 10-20 seconds, shut it off, wait a minute and then check the oil level. Pull the dipstick, wipe it clean, put it back in and out and make sure the oil level is between the two dots. Wouldn't hurt to change the drain plug gasket after you drain the oil either. Make sure you check the level once in a while too, old Honda = oil burner.
mines a 99 ls put 5 quarts in then turn on the car so the oil pumps around and goes into the oil filter, then turn it off then check ur oil it should be leveled, idk if its the same for the 90 ls
pick up a helms, you'll be glad you did, if your a DIY'er http://www.helminc.com/helm/homepage.asp?r=
Use jack stands. Never get under a car with just a hydraulic jack holding it up.
17 mm to remove drain plug. Get a new washer. Don't get oil everywhere. Make sure you don't over tighten plug.
Get an oil filter wrench, remove filter. Oil will come out; don't have your head directly under it. Hand tighten the new filter, oil the gasket. Some people say prefill it with oil. I don't. You can if you want.
Fill with 4.2 quarts 5-30 or 10-30 oil. Start car, make sure oil light goes off, turn off car, check oil (with car on ground).
Good luck.
Next time, try searching for more than 20 mins. Try google.
