Mixing 10w30 with Honda MTF ok?
Just finished changing out my clutch...but had a little tranny fluid leak out...maybe 1/4 of a quart...i only have one car...and can't get anymore honda manual tranny fluid until late monday...i need the car for work...anybody know if it would be alright just to top it off with some regular 10w30? anything i could use from like autozone or something?
I worked a a tech for local Honda/Acura dealership for about 6 years. All we ever used in a m/t was 10w30 oil. You'll be fine if you haven't changed it . Just refill untill it runs out of the hole.

That IS what Honda recommends. At least in my 95 GSR.... (I use only Honda MTF though)

You can ride it 1/4 qt. low for a day, no big deal. That's what I would do and go get another quart of the MTF so you're not mixing stuff.
