Fuel Pressure Sensor Help

Hi all, new to the forums. I'm trying to get my 98 convertible registered but the check engine light code is saying my fuel pressure sensor needs replaced. Bought the part at a local autozone for 67$ but now I need some advice on how much is reasonable to pay for the labor.

My worst fear is walking into the shop uneducated and paying 500$ +

Anyone have some advice?

The fuel pressure sensor is super easy to install. 2 bolts, 1 electrical connection, and one vacuum line come off, it pulls out of the fuel rail, then just put it all back together. I just changed mine in the autozone parking lot last week and it took 3 minutes

If the sensor in question is the Fuel Tank Pressure sensor, part of the evaporative emissions system, then they are correct--the fuel tank has to be removed to get at it (it'a mounted on the top of the tank).

What was the trouble code?

Yup, that is a code for a higher than should be (>4.5V) FTP sensor output signal--the tank needs to be dropped...
