What kind of oil?
 

Simple question here. I have a 1988 Accord LX, and I was just wondering
what type of oil I have to put it in.

Thanks

If you have an owner's manual, it should be in there. If not, 10w30 is
probably a safe choice.

10W30 is what I used in my '88 Accord and Prelude, if that helps you make a
decision.

When you put it in, make sure you first close the windows.

Doesn't it say right on the oil fill cap? It does on my '01 (which says
5W-20).

Most honda engines that I've seen recommend 5W30. I use 5W30 during the
colder months and 10W30 during the hotter months.
