How do I find the starter on a 96 honda accord?

For the 4 cylinder engine, it's located behind and below the distributor, right on top of the transmission--easy access. Be sure to disconnect the negative battery cable before working on the starter motor. The two mounting bolts are likely 14 mm and should be tightened to 32 ft-lbs.
