What kind of V6?

Why are you looking for it?

Where have you looked so far?

It's got a wire attached to it and it's round.

I am looking for it to replace it. Works about 1/2 the time. Not sure "what kind of V6" means. Looked for it from underneath, front, left and right side side. Not obvious where ever it is. Plus I know what they look like. Have replaced several over my life time. Like the one on the top back of my 351 engine or the one on my inline line 6 which was on the drivers side of the engine just about the oil filter.

Front Driver's side of engine, near bottom, where you would find a fuel pump on a 351W.

might be easier to get to from under the truck.
