Re: (calel)
It's 3000 miles or 3 months. Which ever comes first.
Or you can go longer like some people will say. I stick with 3000 miles or 3 months.
Mobile 1 is an oil brand.
For my car i only use Mobile 1 super syn and 92 octane gas. My motor is built though so that's why.
For your car... assuming it's stock. Use 87 octane gas and any type of oil you would like to buy(5w30).

You use 87 cause it's a civic and that's all it needs. Other cars only need 87 octane too.

Re: (bleh)
And the quality of gas depends on the time of year.
There are about 111 types of belnds.
In the summer the carbon chains are bonded togeather loose.
And in the winter the carbon chains a tight and close togeather.
you get better quality of gas in the winter. so 87 won't be a problem. but if you hear a ping or knock at idle you can alway just additives and use 88-90 octane.
Or just use race fuel or a little nitromethane.
just don't mix you nitromethane with nitrous oxide
boooooom!!!!!!
