maybe he used brake fluid in the clutch line.
not in the diff case

honda uses the equivalent of 10w30 SAE motor oil for their tranny's. (supposedly honda MTF is different, and im sure it is. but honda says 10w30 is fine also) this is true of h and f series tranny's, im not a B or D guy, but im sure they are the same too.

brake fluid is closer to hydraulic fluid than motor oil, and its really only used because of its extremely high wet boiling point (ill assume u know the laws or pressure and temperature).
brake fluid also eats paint and skin
