There should be 2-4 bolts holding it in. Locate and un screw them.

Yes, I got the bolts undone. What I can't do is remove the thing - it won't manuever past the axel below and the engine parts above! Is there a special way to tilt/move the thing or a certain direction it needs to go so it can be completely removed from the engine? And how is the new one put in place? Is there something that also must be removed to make room. I have the book which refers to chapter 12 on how to do this, yet capter 12 doesn't say anything about it - it is on electrical systems!
