h22 fluids? hood?

[JDMa22ord]

i've searched and all i got was f22 types and other BS...so what is the best oil to run in stock h22? which manual tranny fluid? also, the PS hose isn't letting the hood clear, therefore, will it be safe and dependable to cut out some of the bottom of my carbon fiber hood to make it clear?


thanks for (+) input!

First of all the fluids for H22A have been covered you need to search harder. Manual tranny fluid i use honda MTF. You can use 10w30 also for it. Your PS hose should clear a lil better if you hit the hose down not too hard with a rubber mallet (thats what i did to mine) Dont hit too hard or else you might snap the outlet or you can find someone to re route the hose for you. I have a custom chip in my hood from my PS line hitting it.

They are the same viscosity when at operating temp.

Well, that's allegedly from a Haynes manual.
http://media.honda.co.uk/car/owner/m...al/400/8-2.pdf is the factory manual pages for trans oil. 10w-30 or 40 SF, circa 1991 oil, which you won't find, nor does Honda use or recommend any more.
MTF has the proper amount of phosphorus for proper syncro protection.
