It's just behind the crank pulley, under the lower timing cover. You will have to pull your valve cover, timing covers and crank pulley to get it off and put a new one in. It isn't a "hard" job, but if you don't even know where it is, you're probably gonna have toruble.

Andy is right, but he forgot to mention you have to remove all the belts to get the crank pulley off.

Under the lowering timing cover, you have to take belts out though and if you cant find it ask someone to help

Seriously. If you can't find it based on the directions in this thread, you should reconsider working on your own car.
