starter dead?

[John A. Heer]

By grinding I mean it sounds like the battery is not giving it enough juice to
get over the top.  It just keeps, well ..., grinding.  I'll try jumping it
with a good battery.

I've had a starter go out on another car, and it would not do anything.  Not
even click or grind or make any noise.  This at least starts to turn over but
never makes it all the way.

You'll have to remove the air box, but not the cast intake piece. At
least I've never removed it for that sort of work.
Are we even sure it's the starter that's dead? Try starting the while
jumping it with another car...
Also, what do you mean it grinds when you turn the key?
