It's the big thing that hangs into the fuel tank connected to the top. Did you need to replace yours yourself?

 

I would like to replace it but it is in the fuel tank I guess I will have to drop the tank to get it.

 

im not sure at all, but you might be able to do it w/o droping the tank and removing the spare tire. remove it, and look to the left and i think you can get it from there.

Yeah, this is what I heard as well, thought you could replace it without dropping the tank (which according to the helms manual requires removal of the brake lines.. a big PITA). Lemme look it up.. one second..

(don't you love internet time?)

Sorry I don't have any method of scanning, but here's the instructions as per the helms manual:

1. Remove the rear tray:

gah.. in looking this up, there's no instructions, simply diagrams telling you to remove all the tabs and clips from the vinyl covering the trunk area.. you are on your own here..

2. Remove the access panel from the floor.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF, the disconnect the fuel pump 5P connector.
4. Remove the fuel fill cap.
5. Relieve the fuel pressure (see step yadda yadda):

(interesting to note here that the page number is wrong, 11-94 is main relay circuit troubleshooting, 11-96 is the fuel pressure relieving instructions)

Nota Bena: Before disconnecting fuel pipes or horses, release pressure from the system by loosening the fuel pulsation damper on top of the fuel rail.

1: Make sure you have the anti-theft code for the radio, blah blah blah
2: Disconnect the battery negative vable from the battery negative terminal.
3: Remove the fuel fill cap.
4: Remove the intake manifold cover (A). (The black plastic thing covering the fuel rail)
5: Use a wrench on the fuel pulsation damper (B) at the fuel rail. (22 N-m, 2.2 kgf-m, 16 lb-ft) (image points to a big screw sort of nut in the middle of the fuel rail).
6: Place a rag or shop towel

 

where can the anti-theft code for the radio

 

be found? It should be on a little ID card that came with the car. Try the secret compartment above the glove box, sometimes they drop it in there.
