the car would explode

*edit* I'll be nice

what happens if you use generic oil rather than honda oil?

nothing, it's just a different brand

well no there is a difference, the only fluid to use in a Honda is from the dealer, or Bardhal I think its called. if you use regular stuff it will eat the system, but its probably not a big deal at this point since the car is already 18 years old
