Hey Alan, I am wondering if you plan to do the solenoid swap "in situ" or on the bench. I intend to do this operation when the weather is truly not for driving, and I am thinking if I cannot get this solenoid off of the car with starter in place, well then, carbs come off, coolant spills and I am in for more upgrading while I am in there! To do this solenoid exchange, very small ratchets/wrenches are required, as well as some good luck, what have you planned? Mike
