1996 Honda Civic Engine

The 1996 Honda Civic engine choices listed here are D16Y5, D16Y7, and D16Y8. These engine codes identify the options recorded for this model year; the list does not provide power, torque, fuel economy, or other ratings.

Read the entries as engine identifiers, not as a ranking or a complete account of every specification. The listed facts do not say which trim or body style used each engine, or describe differences among the three codes. Confirm any missing engine details and vehicle-specific fitment on the door jamb or in the owner's manual.

This page covers 1996 only, so it does not establish which engines were offered in other years or how equipment changed across years or trims. Use the listed codes to identify the engines, and check the door jamb or owner's manual for specifications that are not shown here.

Catalog engine codes and configuration engine labels do not always match. Both are shown as stored — neither is rewritten.

Catalog fitment does not by itself prove OEM-equivalent compatibility.
