It is near the power steering pump here is a guide to give you an idea of what you are in for when changing the fuel pump and a diagram (below) of its location. It is actually located underneath the power steering pump and the bolt is placed in a funny spot.

Just unbolt the fuel lines slowly. I would recommend placing a rag over the area so if there is pressure, the gas does not spray on you. Then there is one bolt that secures the filter to the frame.

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Cheers, Ken
