I want to know what fluid or grease or whatever its called to put into the transmission to help grease the synchros in the tranny. i dont have an owners manual in the car and no one that i know has another prelude. anyone know what to put in?

 

Go to the Honda parts counter and get the Honda Manual Transmission Oil
If you want you can do like I did and go to a GM dealership and get a quart of GM Synchromesh. It's the ****, but it cost me $11 plus tax for a quart. You just mix it in with your regular tranny oil.

How well did that work...Did you feel a big difference. Last year I was going to do it until the sales rep told me what vehicle I had and he said he would not reccomend me doing that.....Kind a scared me. So i didn't....

 

I haven't actually put it in yet... Just picked it up today, to do tomorrow when I do my oil change.
Seriously, what could go wrong with using it? Everyone I know swears by the stuff, and in all kinds of cars.

 

gimme a heads up after you put it in and tell me how it works. i have an H23 tranny with 150k+ on it. so its time for a change (dunno if its happened before or not)

 

if you stop by the dealer in concord they will tell you 10w-30 oil.... its what i used and dont have any problems i have a 92 with h22a4 with stock h23 manual... your not the only one local with a lude im not far from you....just over in the edge of kannapolis

 

a high grade 10w30 will work fine

 

honda MTF.

syncromesh in new/healthy trannies isn't recommended because it's too thin.

if your syncros are already toast, and grind, give the 'mesh a try.
