Hi everyone,

Have a 1999 Civic DX. I want to keep it well maintained (after fixing a radiator leak that cost me $$$!). Someone recommended that I use a gas additive every once in a while and also to use Lucas Oil. I did both and it seems to make the car better. I don't have a honda civic manual and would like to know what sort of things I should look for. I found this thread (https://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_357159/tm.htm) which helped and this quote.

Problem is, I don't know where many of the fluids/filters/valves are / where to look for them.
[hr]Question 1: Are there any pictures detailing where the fluids are / what they do / what I should look for - for a Honda Civic 1999 (or similar that I could use)?

Question 2: Does this lucas oil do anything or should I not use it? - some threads I were reading said it wasn't a good idea.

Question 3: What is the difference between all the oil types? Which oil should I use? (That is, what does 10w30 mean?)

Thank you!

 

Go to your local auto store and pick up a haynes manual for your car,$15, ittells you eveything you need to know about your car and how to do it with pictures and everything.
