Reach down behind the passenger-side rear cylinder. You'll find it.

You need a pretty long funnel to put fluid in.

thanks everyone, I just got home from delivering some food to a sick couple from church, the outside temp is 108 degrees and the engine may be a bit toooooo hot to touch at this time. I will check it out later.

Funny..... I lived in the Mohave desert for 17 years, the temp would rise to 123 and drop to 60 at night. My wife and I think Tucson is to humid after living in the mohave all those years. I would melt if I went back to Upstate NY where I grew up with all that humidity...

Feels like we are melting some days. Course out by you the sweat dries before it thinks about coming out of your pores.
