There could be two of them. I attached a picture below that shows the general location of both. They are identified as numbers 10 and 11. Both require the air intake tube be removed. Picture 2 shows a cam sensor if you have an adjustable exhaust camshaft. Pic 3 will be on your vehicle either way.

Let me know if this helps of if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe
