I've read the shop manuals cover to cover, they are a good read.

I don't have the car with me, but the owners manual called for 75w-something manu-trans gear oil. I'll look into this further though.
Edit: Also another reason why I will never. Ever. Attempt to fix the emissions system in this car.
I'm glad for fuel injection these days, and feel sorry for any Honda technicians that ever had to work on these things. Thank god for Honda quality though, the car appears to run great. We'll see once it's back on the road, though.
