93 mercury sable: starter makes grinding noise!
k i've got a 93 mercury sable 3.8L v6 and im pretty sure the bendix gear on my starter has gone out it was making a terrible grinding noise every time i went to start the car. now it wont even start at all: no spinning, no grinding, no starting. im going to pull it off and have a look (im pretty sure its just jammed). i was using the search engine and i priced out starters for it on ebay at 40 - 50$ and repair kits for 35$. more than i would like to pay but if i have to i have to... by any chance anyone know where i can find just the bendix gear for the starter online or in the san diego area? any help or advice would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Try a couple of scrap yards. Look in the yellow pages for an alternator starter re builder. some of them will sell parts.
