Welcome to 2CarPros.

It is located on top of the fuel tank sending unit. Replacement requires dropping the fuel tank. It can be accomplished with a floor jack and jack stands.

1 Jack up rear of vehicle and secure with jack stands.
2. Relieve fuel pressure by depressing schrader valve on fuel rail.
3 Place jack under tank.
4. Remove fuel filler and overflow hose clamps.
5. Remove bolts securing tank straps.
6. Lower tank and replace sensor.

Below is a picture of how it mounts.
