Default what type of steering oil should I use for my Honda accord 92

Hi,
I have Honda Accord 1992. I went to Walmart today to buy some power steering oil but most of them had marked on it that they are only good for North American cars and some had specified that they are not good for Honda.

So I have two queries:

· What is the worse which can happen if I do not fill power steering fluid now as mine is lower than the min level now?
· Which type and made of oil should I use for my Honda accord 92?

Please let me know.

Thanks
Ahmar

there might be one but the one which is closest to me just closed out because of ongoing financial issues.

I found one on Canadian tire which is marked as "For Honda and Acura" cars. As per Canadian tire automotive expert onsite this is the one they are using for it. The made is BARDAHL and below the name they marked "Good for Honda and Acura cars".
Shoud I use this on my acoord 92?

I just did a change over for my ps fluid.

You should be ok using the generic fluids from like AutoZone that are marked HONDA/ACURA do not use the other ones as most say "not for honda vehicles"

Yes. You will have no problems with this fluid as it is specifically made for Hondas/Acuras.
