If it is like the 99 sunfire it is a nightmare. If you could drill a hole thru your glove compartment you could reach it. Look for it on the passenger side back of motor.

its actually not that bad, you can reach it from above the engine, i had a

93 cavalier and with the old TB you had to reach up from underneath, Either way, its the same 2.2 engine and you are right about where it is

Is he talking about the OHV 2.2 or the Ecotec 2.2?

If you have the Ecotec engine, its right at the back of the engine but front of the car. It is sitting under the intake manifold and looks like a plastic cup with a big bolt head on top. You need a one and a quarter inch socket to unscrew it.
