Finally did an oil change on my imported Honda Acty

[@jerryrodgers6785]

It really is an easy oil change. And you reminded me I was supposed to change the Jeep oil today…but I was working on the Acty truck instead…

[@evolutionj]

nice that it has a built in skid protection bar for the oil filter AND gave you enough clearance without having to remove it. These engineers back in the day were really looking out for customers.

[@mistertyspy]

Everything seems to be kept simple and very convenient to work on.🙂

[@Killmonize]

That is a honda for sure

[@DWaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar]

The horizontal fill spout isn't exactly great though.

[@martinchavez8252]

Where did you get the oil filter?

[@davidstewart5594]

i rememeber working at acura and my honda store parts manager said hondas oil filters fit almost all their cars and trucks besides a few oddballs, i didnt know that they means all of em like these lol

[@mistertyspy]

Yea almost like a universal filter system. 👍

[@sonymunoz7686]

Where you get the filter and what is the reference #

[@mistertyspy]

i got it from a buddy that works at the dealership.

[@nh4759]

How much oil and filter type?

[@xavierwilson2134]

How often do u change your oil ?

[@mistertyspy]

For my Camry that has over 300k miles I changed every 5k miles. I'll do every 3k for my mini truck just because it's older.

[@xavierwilson2134]

Thanks I bought a 2015 Acty van, and was curious on when I should do my oil change. It’s basically like the truck but with a shell on the back

[@mistertyspy]

@@xavierwilson2134 Nice! I wish we can get the new ones in the states.

[@connorlearmonth665]

What do you do for tires on kei class cars?

[@mistertyspy]

I'm probably going to put on some bigger tires. I've seen different setups on Facebook groups. Still researching and haven't completely decide on the wheels. I'm sure there's some sellers in the states but if I have to order from Japan then I guess I'll just have to wait.

[@connorlearmonth665]

@@mistertyspy ah, so you’re on the jdm tires still? I’m bringing in a Kei car soon, and I’m thinking I’ll need to upsize to something more common. Otherwise it won’t pass inspection to get registered without DOT tires.

[@mistertyspy]

@@connorlearmonth665 Yea the wheels are tiny. Definitely do an upgrade.

[@ronaldreyes4594]

Do you have oil filter code ?

[@joeroe2839]

Super tech st 6607 it's 4 bucks 😊 works just fine any 2008 civic filter fits it

[@grantottaviano7445]

That thing a diesel?!

[@mistertyspy]

nope

[@woozleboy]

660 cc 3 cyl gas engine with carb. Only about 38 hp, but Honda does a lot with that limited power. Japan deliberately imposes restrictions on size and power of engines in these trucks

[@Reteefor3]

damn you don't need to make thar bolt that tight lol

[@mistertyspy]

Hand tight🙂
