Fuel shut off valve location
Need help finding the fuel shut off valve location so that I can replace it. The dealership said that it was a problem and needed replaced so instead of paying almost $700 I am going to change it as well as a lot of other items. I just need help finding it. Has anyone replaced one of these before? I was told that when they were fogging my system it was leaking.

8- plug in wire or replace with updated connector
9-reinstall inner cover
