Default Bleeder Screw 2.3L Quad 4

Hey guys, Im changing the coolant on my 95 cavalier z24 with a 2.3L Quad 4 engine. Where is the bleeder screw? Im having a really hard time locating it or any information about it. In the repair manual it doesnt show it for my engine.

Many cars don't have a drain on the radiator anymore. I usually remove the upper radiator hose and run the engine with the hose putting water in the radiator till it gets to temp and that will start the flow through the engine and radiator to flush it out. Once flushed well stop the engine and let it cool some and remove the lower hose and more coolant will come out. Put both hoses back on and fill with coolant.

On my 02 the bleeder is on top of the metal part of the line going between the thermostat and heater core. Near the top of the trans in line with the block on drivers side. 1X1. one foot in one foot down. I still don't know how to use it.
