RE: Solenoid Wiring

Bruce, here's a cropped wiring diagram (hope it comes out ok). With the solenoid in front of you and the mounting bracket at the top, the big post on the left goes to the battery, the big post to the right goes to the starter. The little post on the left is the "S" for starter. It receives +12 volts from the ignition switch with the key in the "start" position. The little post on the right is the "I" for ignition. It bypasses the resistor wire and sends +12 volts to the + side of the coil when the solenoid is activated.

Just a point of interest, you can read the + coil voltage on the "I" post instead of going directly to the coil.
This thread, so far...
