AL: Before your mechanic installed the new starter DID HE CHECK THE CONDITION OF THE TEETH ON THE FLYWHEEL RING GEAR?
OR DID HE JUST INSTALL THE NEW STARTER?

The other question that comes to mind if the fuel pump was leaking why would he try to restart the car with out fixing the fuel pump first.

It seems that if your mechanic knows what he is doing then he should be able to figure out what caused the bendix gear to go south.

However it will be interesting to see if any other persons in here have had the same problem in the past with the starter that you are having now.
