Engine Oil:
* Type: Honda recommends using a high-quality synthetic blend or full synthetic oil that meets the following specifications:
* API Service Classification: SL or SM (check your owner's manual for the most recent recommendation)
* Viscosity: 5W-20, 5W-30, or 10W-30 (again, consult your owner's manual)
* Quantity: Approximately 4 quarts (check your owner's manual for the exact amount)
Transmission Fluid:
* Type: Honda Genuine ATF-Z1 (or equivalent)
* Quantity: Approximately 3 quarts
Important Notes:
* Check Your Owner's Manual: Always refer to your 1992 Accord's owner's manual for the most accurate and up-to-date fluid specifications and service intervals.
* Service Intervals: Follow the recommended oil change intervals in your owner's manual, which are typically around 3,000-5,000 miles.
* Transmission Fluid Change: The transmission fluid should be changed every 30,000-60,000 miles or as recommended by your owner's manual.
Additional Tips:
* Consider Synthetic: Synthetic engine oil offers superior protection and performance compared to conventional oil, especially in older vehicles.
* Proper Warm-Up: Allow your engine to warm up for a few minutes before driving to help the oil circulate properly.
* Oil Level Check: Regularly check your oil level using the dipstick and top off as needed.
Remember, choosing the correct fluids and adhering to recommended service intervals will help your Honda Accord run smoothly and last longer.
