no big deal to use 10*40

but if your accord is due for a change the ya put it in,

or you should be able to exchange the oil AT Wal-mart without a receipt.

it might not be a big deal to use the 10w-40 but IMO, its too heavy for this motor.

Just use some of it over several changes, so that most of the oil in the crankcase is 10W30 (half or more)
