Icon2 The right oil for B16A with 70-76k miles?

What oil is the best for my B16A with the mileage on the engine around 75k? Another question is, how do I order parts from let's say... Autozone, I would say 2000 Honda civic Si? Cause that's what engine it came out of right? I don't know if its a first gen or newer B16 though

Don't use autozone parts on that engine. Use OEM, or do it 2x plus. Ignition parts, seals/filters/gaskets/belts/hoses should be OEM, they last the longest and have the best fitment.

As for oil. Use a name brand quality oil of your choice 5w30 and change it every 3-5k miles with an OEM or high quality aftermarket filter.

Any 5w30 with API seal will work.
