    ========================

    If your mileage is over 30,000, it's due for a change of Dual Pump Fluid
    (ignore the manual) It needs a litre, and Honda (or online)is the place
    to get it. Do not use gear oil... the Honda rear diff has about twenty
    'wet clutch' surfaces, like a motorcycle, as well as a differential box,
    and needs some very specialized additives, found only in Honda Dual Pump
    Fluid.
