Resurrecting an old thread to warn everyone. I got the 10179 refill kit. While some 10179 might be the right size, the one I got is \narrower and taller than the Honda one, and so doesn't fit into the pump. I may ditch the whole thing (since I prefer my old pump anyway) and just get a can of fix-a-flat. No idea why Honda can't sell the refills...add insult to injury when you lose a tireDitto on what @craze1cars and @Sandroad say.
Also found your instructions that seem to imply to screw unto you can’t screw any more to be very sound advice.
And on a more serious note you can refill the canister with aftermarket brands a lot cheaper than buying the can and parts from Honda.
Here is what I copied a while back but I can’t remeber who posted it.
Tire Repair Kit cheap refill:
The dealer told me that I needed to order an entirely new kit even though it appeared to me that just the sealant cartridge could be replaced. After some research I ordered the Slime 10179 refill kit from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B073...F8&qid=1521277634&sr=1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65
While looking almost identical, the knob and valve are slightly different shape. Easy fix was just to swap those parts with the ones on the used component and now it’s good as new. Highly recommend this solution. I actually think the OEM is a Honda branded Slime unit. Chemistry and test of parts seem identical.
