Welcome to 2CarPros.

There are two. I attached a picture so you can see locations. Once you remove the bolts, then remove the motor by rotating the solenoid side toward the vehicle. I did note that you said it is a 3.1L. The V6 offered was a 3.3L. That is what the picture is from. Please let me know if something is different.

Let me know if this helps.

Take care,
Joe
