little advice needed, changing tranny fluid/filter tomorrow 87 300e

[dirtysocks]

O.K. I am changing the tranny fluid tomorrow. I have a book withg fairly detailed instructions, but (after a search) I still have a few questions.

1. Which way EXACTLY do I turn the crankshaft pulley in order to get the drain plug on the torque converter to where I can access it. In other words, I'm under the car, my feet are sticking out from under the front bumper, and my head is PAST the crankshaft pulley, and tilted forward looking at it. Now which way do I turn it?

2. what does the nub on the crankshaft pulley that I need to turn look like? Where is it located? Is there a reference point near it? I could not seem to find it, and the book's pictures are terrible.

3. Also, the pics for the transmission oil pan and the filter are quite bad as well. Anyone have a description of where they are?

Thanks in advance for the replies.
