that wouldnt be a problem with a b series engine.

i know someone who ran over 200k with factory oil. never changed it. maybe he topped it off once in a while

Anyone working at a honda dealership willing to hook it up w/ discounted tune-ups?

Im at 17k. Not sure what kind of tune-up I need.

Oh, speaking of. I change my oil every 3k miles, no matter what % Oil life says.

Should I wait for it to get to 15%, even if i have driven more than 3k miles? Or keep doing it every 3k?

Im usually at like 60% oil life when I hit 3k miles on my oil change.

Ah cool. I wasnt sure what to do since my oil % is like 60 when Ive hit 3k since my last change. Didnt want to ruin the engine. But I guess keepin it fresh every 3k never hurt a civic.. :]
