I have had 14 Hondas and 4 Acuras. I have put Mobil 1 in all of them. Mobil 1 is synthetic and does not break down fo a while, it gets dirty. So change the oil every 6k-7k miles and change the FILTER every 3k then add a little. I have been doing this for over 25 years!
The type of automatic transmission fluid that you should put in your 1997 Honda Prelude varies depending on the transmission. Honda recommends that you use their own brand of ATF when you replace the fluid in the SportShift transmission.
i would use 5w30 or a 10w 30 Vavoline conventional or max life
What's the question?
prelude's depending on spec can most deffinately be awd/4wd.. 100% 4ws,for best results go to a Honda search engine/site & you can read all about body/engine type / drive train / capacity.. even why & how the Honda prelude range was made.
A Honda's resale value depends on the type of Honda you are interested in. A 2001 Honda Prelude has a higher resale value than the 2002 Honda Passport.
Provided the '97 Prelude is a base model, then yes it is possible to swap in an H22a variant. The Prelude Type SH motor is different as the ATTS unit is connected to the motor. So, the only compatible H22a motors would be one from another Type SH, or the JDM Honda Prelude Type S motor.
That is like the Honda Prelude Type S, which was only sold in Japan and in the United Kingdom. It had an output of 220 PS (217 hp).
134a
If it's a Sport Shift (auto), then you use Honda's auto transmission fluid. If it's a manual, Honda's manual transmission fluid. Use no other fluid in your Honda.
If you are looking at the fastest production versions of either car (ex: RSX Type S vs. Prelude VTEC), then the RSX would about match with the Prelude 0-60, but be a little faster in the quarter mile.
it is on the back of the engine block below the oil filter on the base model prelude. type sh model isn't as easy to find
typically 5w30
