    Any possibility the other solenoid was in the same shape? Make sure all the wires are tight, as well as the battery cables to the battery, starter, etc. the key off and key on thing, pretty much doesn't mean much, except that any safetly switches seem to be working. http://www.tulsaenginewarehouse.com/.../allwiring.pdf
