    look along the intake manifold (not on the manifold) towards the left when looking at the engine. there is a black steel coolant pipe running across there, the bleeder is on that pipe.

    There is a small bleeder screw on a black metal line coming out of the top of the water pump.

    With the engine off and cold, open the bleeder screw until coolant comes out then close the screw. If no coolant comes out, add coolant to reservoir.
