do a search on google, there's a free fix that works most of the time. otherwise you can pick up a plastic replacement, brass replacement, or whole new motor. i got remanufatured motors from autozone for $70 each, with lifetime warranties. good thing they're warrantied because my 5th one just stripped.
shouldnt you also be able to flip the gear 180* ?
