BTW, that's not how I found it. Whoever installed the starter left the Ford-style remote solenoid in place, wired normally, then ran a small jumper from the heavy cable post on the starter to the solenoid - essentially running both solenoids in series. Just one of the many goofy things I've found and fixed on this car. |
Good move to remove it. Two solenoids effectively in tandem operation are twice as likely for a no crank condition, more components, more chance of failure.
