Take off the right side panel from the central control panel. Look in to the left, behind the lower radio box. You should see the vacuum reservoir, three white plastic spheres.

Just in from of that is the drain - a black hose with a dog-leg shape. Hose top hooks onto a short nipple on the airbox bottom. The bottom has a flange and fits through the floor pan just above the trans.

Do not disconnect the hose until you are ready to soak up whatever water and glop that might come rushing out.

I have looked through a hose, squeezed it, waved it around, shooken it, and still had more glop come out when I washed out in the sink. Out of sight of wife.

The bottom has a sort of slit that's to keep creatures from taking up residence in there. It also allows glop to plug up the works. Clip the bottom a little.

Put a few drops of ATF on the bottom and in the top to make the hose slip into place easier.

Good Luck,

Bob
