pick some up at the local Honda dealer,,,,,,,,,if fluid is low there has to be a leak.. p's rack ?? p/s pump ?? hoses ? chk it out ..

the p/s pressure hose is very notorious on these car for leaking .. it is the 1 that runs across over the exh manifold ( long son of a gun ) goes from pump to rack . the long way around

Auto Zone has just what you need, go in and ask one of their counterpersons to get it for you..
