There is a retaining clip you need to pry out from around the perimeter of the regulator. I took mine out and found a lot of dirt on the screen. I cleaned that off and the bad symptoms went away without changing out the regulator.

The regulator is part of the fuel pump. You have to drop the fuel tank to access.

Where is the voltage regulator located on a 3800 V6 engine?

What make? What year? If it's a carbureted engine, the voltage regulator is likely integrated into the alternator (some are serviceable, some are not). If the engine is fuel injected, the engine's computer usually serves as the voltage regulator.
