Using engine cleaner when changing oil can be beneficial, as it helps to remove sludge and deposits that accumulate over time. However, it's not always necessary; if your engine is in good condition and regularly maintained, a standard oil change may suffice. If you do choose to use an engine cleaner, ensure it is compatible with your engine type and follow the manufacturer's instructions. Ultimately, whether to use it depends on the specific condition of your engine and your maintenance routine.

How often do you change the oil in a Honda Odyssey?

No matter what kind of car you have, you should change your oil every 3000 miles (If a lot of city stop-and-go driving) or every 4000 miles if you do a lot of highway driving. By the way it is also a good idea to change your oil filter every time you change your oil. Always buy the more expensive filters. What's the difference if you spend a dollar and seventy five cents from four dollars and fifty cents. The answer is cleaner oil with the more expensive filter. Cleaner oil means a cleaner engine and a clean engine lasts a long time if you take care of it.

How often should you change your oil filter?

If you intend to keep your vehicle's engine clean, change it every time you change your oil. The filter holds the dirt your engine generates. Hence the dark color of your oil as it ages and is pumped through your engine. Dirt is dirt. Get it out.


Why is 1994 Honda passport engine ticking could it be lifters how do you make it stop?

Try using sea foam engine cleaner before engine oil change and change oil to mobil 1 0W30 oil. The problem should go away with 0w30 oil due to it high detergent value, this should clean out the valve/lifter ports which may be plugged up. this is a common problem with the Honda 3.2L engine due to tight mfg. specs and small oil passages at the lifters. I had the ticking noise on my 1994 Honda passport and switching to mobil 0w30 oil took care of the problem. Continue with 3-4K oil changes.
