Replacing a flywheel and starter on a 1999 Ford Windstar can cost between $600 and $1,200, depending on labor rates and parts quality. The starter typically ranges from $100 to $300, while the flywheel can cost around $150 to $500. Labor costs may add an additional $200 to $500, depending on the mechanic's hourly rate and the complexity of the job. It's advisable to get quotes from local mechanics for a more accurate estimate.

2 things that come to mind: # The teeth on the gear are worn down - that would prevent them from engaging with the teeth on the flywheel and turning the engine over # The starter gear is not being pushed out far enough to completely engage the flywheel Either way, it's likely the starter is coming out for repair or replacement

Starter spins but doesn't turn engine? Probably the starter drive. The starter drive is part of the starter and can be replaced if the rest of the starter is still healthy.

Worst case, the flywheel ring gear is bad in which case the transmission would have to come out for replacement of ring gear.

The starter bendix is not mating with the ring gear on the flywheel. The soleonoid on the starter motor may be faulty or the teeth of the flywheel or the bendix may have stripped. A bench test of the starter motor would be advised.
