No synthetic for 8-10K miles is the generally accepted "rule". I'd use what ever is printed on the top of the filler cap. But then I've never been too "loyal" to any brand of oil. IMO correct viscosity is more important. No idea on the drain plug?

I don't know if you have Pep Boys out there or not, but that's where I bought mine. If you find one, DO NOT use the plastic/nylon washer if one comes with it. I almost lost my drain plug because I used the nylon washer that came with mine. It was just finger tight when I changed the oil. I was lucky. I'm using the Honda washer now and it hasn't come loose.
