What all was involved on the changeout? Do you just twist & pull it up & out?

I think I may have the same problem.

^^what he said. I seriously cannot find it. I know where it is and I've felt around in the back of the motor and I just can't find it. My sending unit is busted and I'm tired of the dinging.

Take the air box off and it is on the passenger side of the distributor.
