It's somewhat buried behind the turbo shielding. Pop the plastic cover off, now remove the airbox pipe that runs to the turbocharger. Now remove the two nuts that secure the shield, move the solenoid out of the way. Disconnect the crankcase breather tube and move the turbo inlet case out of the way. Now look down toward the manifold and you will see the ECT screwed into it. Disconnect it, remove it and throw it away, they are not reusable. Install the new one to 97 inch pounds. Reverse the process to put it back together.
