CAUTION WHEN CHOOSING OIL

[NightRider_imp]

If they do make it, then that's the definitive reason to use it.
They can formulate it and tweak it to whatever is best for their engines.

Somebody just mentioned Honda does not make it in-house but...wattaminute. Just a sec. Hold on there. If it is formulated to their specifications by an oil company then they "make it" just as if it were in-house.

There you go. This was easy and pretty clear cut. Now, on to something harder? Like, when to use stabilizer in your fuel and what kind is best? Speaking of fuel, ethanol? Does it hurt and since Honda does not make the gas, is it better to use non-ethanol or does ethanol actually help keep things running smoother?
My applogies for spinning this yet another oil thread to other liquids, but sheesh, nine pages about oil? Must be a hobby for some of us!
