There is a drain plug on the tank.  Pull the skidplate and you'll see it.

I ask because I ordered a factory service manual, and now that I have it I 
find it to be less complete than I had hoped, numerous typos, lack of 
detail, etc. , not much better than my Haynes or Chiltons.
It is white with a red stripe at the top and a black stripe at the bottom 
and says
TOYOTA
1988
Truck & 4Runner
Repair Manual
  -Engine
it does not look like the ones I've seen on ebay or these: 
http://www.toyotaguys.com/194runfacser2.html
did I get jipped and just get a generic shop manual, or is this the "factory 
service manual" with a new cover? I hate to think this is the most 
comprehensive material there is..

thanks,
Kerry

It's the right manual and no it's not for beginners. A beginner
needs to read the procedures in all available manuals 
(Hayes, Chiltons, Factory manual & others) and then 
attempt the job.

Personally, I like to practice procedures on junked cars in
the self service wrecking yards in order to know what I'll be
up against when I attempt the real thing.

I think the best beginners book, by far, is "How to Keep
Your Toyota Pickup Alive, by Larry Owens.  Occassionally
available on ebay.
