Is this a 3.1 liter engine? tipicaly by the throttle body area. idle sensor or idle air controll valve?
On my Chevy lumina it is located right by the gas take on the right side of the car.
I just replaced the starter motor on my 1990 4 cylinder engine Chevy Lumina. The starter is located in front of the oil pan. It was reachable and can be seen from under the front of the car a little to the right. You have to remove a three bolt attached plastic part by the oil pan to be able to get to one of the starter motor bolts. Good luck.
