should be back on the rear of the block where it meets the transmission almost directly under the throttle body. Start your motor and look under there for movement with a flashlight or whatever. Should be easy as pie to spot then...or is it easy as cake? Brownies even?

if you looking at the TB it down to the left it look for a rubber cap/gromet

Flathead screwdriver, get someone to hold it.

Is this only for automatics? I used some bigass clamps when did mine and wedged a screwdriver somewhere on the front side of the bock but it would've been nice if there was a better way.

You can do it on a MT or AT but as subba said in a MT u just put it in gear. In a AT like mine u cant put it in gear with out starting it
