NO the dipsticks are different and show different readings!!!


one is longer then the other!!!!


also yes that oil is great but I hear some bad things about the additive in it that cause bearing wear! and scarring of the cam's an crank ...But rumors are just that!

thank you tech i was afraid of that,also today i hit vtec and it felt weak so i looked at my oil level and it was freaking low so i added some and now it drives normal again.But i rarely hit vtec and i just started driving the,plus it has no leak anywhere what can cause me to burn oil.it took almost 1k to burn a quart or so
