I want to ask, What is the suitable octane fuel for Civic hybrid 2006 ?
And is I can use another oil instead of 0W20 for my civic because in my country this type of oil very rare or sometimes not available, and what is the alternative oil ? |

ok first you fill up at place you like to stop at most fil up with highest octane set mileage write it down drive til it needs to be refilled use next lower octane an done that gets you the best mileage right one at that place only then go to next place up street and do the same thing you do this with couple places leaving home and a couple places coming back home to decide which fuels get you the best mileage
its say like my nissan gets great mileage with shell high octane but same with mobil regular my ford gets great mileage with chevron and PB knowing which fuel gets you the best mileage thenyou know your car is running at its best fuel wise and as for oil sure you can go up a weight 5w30 |

87 octane is fine, translate that to whatever that means where you're from.
As for the oil, u can use 5W30 or 5W20 IF the weather is usually warm where you're from. I live in NYC and due to some cold winters we need to have the 0W20. The first number before the W is the below celcius rating at which it will still work (cold) the second is the hot rating. which is why old big engine cars need 20W50. i could be a bit wrong on teh whole theory but that's a decent summary to satisfy teh taste buds. |
