ummm you can look and look all you want and you wont find it!!!!!thats cause your car doesnt have one. the clutch on a 3g is a cable clutch.......

Yep. Your clutch is pulled by a cable and not by hydrolics.

Is there something wrong with your clutch? If it needs adjustment there is a black knob right in front of the tranny to adjust it.

Cool man! Any more questions just ask! dollars to doughnut holes somebody here knows just about anything to do with these cars!

perhaps you mean the transmission not the clutch??? You can add fluid to the tranny... but your clutch is a cable. If you want to top up your fluid, look on the passenger side engine compartment. Look directly down where the thermostat housing is and you should be able to see/feel a big 17mm nut on the tranny. Take that out and fill the fluid till its level with the hole. I recommend using Honda factory fluid otherwise you can just use 10W40 motor oil. You'll need a hose to add the fluid to the tranny... only takes about 5 minutes or so.

Good luck!
