cool, thx for the input guys/gals. I was tempted to use different grades of oil besides the low 5w20, but in the owners manual (01 civic pg. 210) it says "5w20 is formulated for year round protection of your Honda, to improve cold weather starting, and help your engine use less fuel." May want to think about that for future reference....
