    Amsoil MTF mixed with Honda MTF

    Hi! I just wanted to ask if it is ok to mix the amsoil MTF with honda oem MTF? I just had my car serviced today and got my MTF drained and filled.. The tech actually added the 2qts of Amsoil MTF i had into their MTF Pump that still had OEM honda/acura MTF in it.. Is this alright? Thank you!
