Don't know about a 98, but on a 99, it is on the right side near the front, next to the valve cover encased in a soft rubber sheath. Follow the line from the back of the TB. On the 99, there is a heavy wire going to the block that attaches to the PCV valve to help warm it to evaporate any condensation.

so THATS what that thing does. well if hes talking about what i think hes talking about. on my 98 its a little black cylinder thats kind of under the fuel pressure regulator with a hose that leads into the manifold behind the throttle body and another hose going the other way thats taped together with the fuel lines. i thought it was stuck way down in the motor. hell i can replace that easily then ill hafta look into that.
