Manual Transmission Fluid

If Honda MTF is not available, you may use the API
certificated SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 viscosity motor
oil as a temporary measure.
Replace with MTF as soon as possible. Motor oil does
not contain the proper additives for the transmission
and continued use can cause decreased shifting
performance and lead to transmission damage.
