Just out of curiosity, I have a ls trans that needs fluid changed asap. I have some pennzoil 15w-40 around, can I use that as the fluid? I understand the viscosity could be amn issue but I used 10w-40 last time and they are both 40 weight oils. Any input?

 

sure no harm done, just recommended you change it sooner then if you used Honda MTF.

 

I was wondering the same thing I'm drawing mine now I got 80w90 gear oil will that work ?

 

Is an LS Manual Tranny different? I've always been told either 10w-30 or Torco MTF as better options instead of Honda MTF for my manual tranny (D-series).

 

that seems rather HIGH lol 80/90 but I'm not sure if gear oil goes by the same properties it should tho.


@tomcat nope just a long gear b-series trans

 

That's what smelled like what was in it . What should I get then motor oil or a thinner gear oil

 

 

I always hear GM synchromesh is best fluid. Everyone IV seen with an accord 6speed has been happy with this fluid

 

80w90 is going to destroy your transmission.

 

check your owners manual.

dont do things because you see others doing them...

if you dont have the owner's manual downoad it from the internet
