No it's not connected. You need to buy a non-detergent manual trans oil. I strongly advise going to your nearest Honda dealer, it's pretty cheap and in-stock.

Use the Honda manual tranny fluid you won't regret it. It will make a big difference.

Regular engine oil will foam-up bad with all of the manual trans cavitation (i.e. all the fast spinning parts submerged in the oil).....trust me.

Oh, it's about 6 bucks a quart. And, although it's equivilant to a 30 weight, use the Honda stuff.....your only talking about 10 bucks difference.
