Honda Civic VII EP1 1.4 16v - MTF and rest of the world

[analyzer64]

Hi,
i've read a lot of topics about MTF, and now i have a mess in my head.

Earlier i used to pour an original Honda MTF, then was a Ravenol MTF-2 75W80 and i was happy, how the tranny works with it.

Last year, i replaced bearings in my gearbox and bought Honda MTF. Now i'm considering which oil to buy, back to Ravenol or buy something new, like Amsoil Synchromesh (MTF).

What do you recommend Guys?

You were happy with the Ravenol...maybe go with tried-and-true?

I find it interesting that the only viscosity specs are given on the STF Synchormesh and not the MTF-1, -2, and -3.

Even more interesting is the STF Synchormesh viscosity spec which is 7.3 cSt at 100C, where the covered GM spec is 9.5 to 10.5 cST.

Unless the viscosity of MTF-1, -2, and -3 are given how can you tell where in the SAE XXWXX range it falls?
