In Reply to: Solenoid on starter? posted by Carden on September 05, 2007 at 05:48:48:
If I had my "druthers" n didnt give a hoot about the Correct Police I would use one of the later dash mounted rubber covered/sealed "Push to Start" switches PLUS I would also have an On/Off key type Ignition Switch wired such that turning it on energized the ignition coil PLUS fed voltage to the Push to Start switch so the key must be ON before the Push to Start switch can energize the starter solenoid. Id use the old Ford type starter solenoid with the 2 big posts for battery cable n starter n the 2 little terminals S (solenoid activation served by the Push to Start) and I (to by pass any ballast resistor if you had a 12 volt tractor n 6 volt coil)
Although the original type push/pull ignition switch could still be used and wired as above where it had to be ON to energize the Push to Start switch (and coil of course), I think a key is just safer .........
I consider that (On/Off key PLUS Push to Start) the safest n best method but if your starter only has the surface post like used for mechanical saddle mount switches that Bob was talkin about maybe you can ahve it adeapted for a threaded stud???????
I also agree 100% this will give better performance n less maintenance then the older push button contact or saddle mount starter switches HANDS DOWN
