Open the hood and stand over the left fender, facing the car. Stick out your right hand.

The dipstick is behind the throttle body (which is covered by a plastic thing that says 'H-6') on the driver's side of the engine compartment. You shouldn't have to look too hard - it's a yellow handle. But make sure you can see well enough in there before you pull it out - finding the hole it fits in can be difficult in the dark.

I want to make sure I've made my point. I consider the SVX to be a very reliable car. It's not a Camry, but it is dependable. But remember, also, that it's an expensive car to maintain and that '92 (while low on mileage) is 12 or 13 years old. Stuff may not break very often, but when it does it can be very expensive. It isn't always very expensive, but it can be.

Fortunately, there's this great online community willing to help educate owners and help them solve problems.
