Default what fluid goes where?

I need a online copy of a owners manual for a 96 accord ex, 2.2 vtec, with manual trans and or a diagram showing where to fill each thing under the hood also what each reservoir is for as some of them i dont recognize since this is my first honda. any links or info would be great!

I've also heard the manual trans on these are hydrolic and iassume that means there is a hydro reservoir for that?

super easy on your car

with hood open facing car

Brake fluid - in front of driver on firewall
Power Steering - drivers side close to the front of the car, about 8 inches away from headlight
Oil - in valve cover
Coolant - passenger side next to headlight

Transmission cannot be done from under hood

You can also go to the common diy thread on top of the gen tech help forum. There is a link to online shop manuals. You can download a 94 accord shop manual as a pdf and it is almost identical to your 96 accord.
