I have a feeling that's what's filling mine I may just pull it and attempt to clean and lube it.

Well with the saab down and it looking like they will not warranty the freaking repair they just did on it I'm down to one vehicle.  Until I get it drug back home and the parts get here that I ordered on Friday.

The starter I have is not rebuildable at this point since the nose cone snapped clean off.

Does anyone nearby have a starter they want to part with if not I might have to drive down to CT and visit paul.
