I had t remove the factory plate that was blocking it. then it was on my left from the drivers position. So right as your looking at the front. Thats for a 92 model.
Left is Left while you sit in the vehicle, get under and look up under the exhaust mani.
Find the engine mount go back 3 welchplugs and next is the drain.
Give a man a fish and you have fed him for a day, but give him a case of dynamite and soon the village will be showered with mud and seaweed and unidentifiable chunks of fish."
took a picture, but the "insert image" is asking for am http:// site to upload image... how do you do that? Who has the time for such things.
Anyway I have to descibe in words:
Exhaust side of engine --> Engine Mount --> 1st 40mm Welsh Plug direct above --> 2nd 40mm Welsh Plug --> Square Plate with 4 x 10mm bolts --> 14mm plug when removed nothing came out --> 3rd 40mm Welsh plug --> then right up the top near the head is a 12mm bolt covered in oil, etc, which is very hard to remove.
I tried removing the plate with the 4 bolts, but it's stuck on good. Don't want to wedge screwdriver and bash it with a hammer... could deform it.
had a look on the inlet manifold side could not see anything there...
Only thing I can think of is the get a 40mm replacement welsh plug, and bash out a welsh plug to empty the coolant in there.
click on 'go advanced' then click on the 'paper clip' and you can upload direct from you computer that way, just make sure the size is small enough to upload

Now these here pics are a TB 4.2 E, efi model 92, I think thats the same as yours.
There should be coolant behind this plug, I cracked mine and its there alright. SO if theres no coolant coming out is it blocked? Try poking a wire in the hole see if theres sludge.
