Yeah, but that is why they make this "Refill Smoke", so you can re-use burnt-up stuff. DD |

I saw where someone had mounted a solenoid on top of a model a starter and attached the terminal with a bus bar.

Well not to be the bummer guy, but the minute we stop buying everything from china is the first time we can complain about it. They make a ton of stuff for us, as they have cheap labor and don't care about their environment (well or their people). But we buy it!
Going to wally world tomorrow. ![]() You could probably find an old original if you put an add here or look on ebay. They rarely ever go bad and are not rare. |

I got one when I had a yblock on a run stand. Nice little slick tool. As I mentioned previously you can actually do this with a screwdriver too. Just kind of crude. |

From my earlier thread; RE the Echlin ST-58 NAPA gave me that would not work on my '49 Ford positive ground PU which as I know, requires the ST-53. If solenoids are not polarity sensitive, then the New Asian made Eichlin solenoid ST-58 must of been just faulty. Only difference I could tell was the ST-58 had a bakealite case and the 53 a metal case from Mexico. An interesting thread in any event. Don
