On the lefthand side of the tranny, or driver side you might call it. Look for the steel braided line going from the master cylinder to the slave. The bleeder valve will be right there.

Use a deepwell socket and a 1/4 drive breaker bar to do the bleeding chore, works great. Good luck!

I have to try one of these mighty vac things. Bleeding mine was kind of a PIA.
