Do the drain plug and fill plug both take crush washers? Earlier in this thread, it was stated that it's a 17mm washer, but I'm not sure whether that's the fill or drain. Could be that they're both the same size, but I'm not sure. If you know, let me know.

Lastly, anyone know the correct torque spec for retightening the bolts?

In the 2008 Honda Owners Manual I looked in, it said Honda MTF or a 10W-30 or 10W-40 Motor oil.

I do recommend a Synchromesh fluid.... AMSOIL or GM Synchromesh
