   Where on a mk1 black top do I bleed the engine oil from when flushing it out?

   Same place as most engines.
   
   As the bottom of the engine you should see the sump... and a sump plug (bolt)
   
   Remove the bolt.

   there a bolt in the sump - undo it - oil comes out.
   
   tighten bolt back up, put oil in.

   i second the haynes manual very usefull, expecialy with french cars. You also should run the engine for about 5 mins 2 get the oil hot it comes out quicker and brings more gunk from the bottom of the sump with it.
