My experience, I bought a repop solenoid and it was junk. I didn't get a summer out of it before it seized engaged. When I got home I had to get underneath and remove the solenoid just to get into reverse to get into the garage.

I found a NOS 12v Delco solenoid and it's been working great for five years now. Almost all of the R10 overdrives take the same solenoid. I never put my hand on it after driving, but I don't think it should be getting too hot to touch.
