Can anyone confidently tell me where to purchase the correct 3 Post starter solenoid for my 960? Per the shop manual the starter cable connects to the left and the battery and alternator cables connect to the right. The small post is supposed to be connected internally to the right post so that when the starter switch is pushed current flows to ground and the starter is energized. I have tried two new solenoids and both are incorrect such that the small post is internally connected to the left starter post. The solenoid will not operate correctly if I wire as designed. Temporarily I swapped the starter and battery cables so I can tune the engine but the posts are not the same length, meaning a poor connection for the battery and alternator, and the starter cable has too much stress on it. I tried mounting the solenoid upside down but of course my cables would need to be replaced and the short lug problem still exists. I can use as is to tune the engine but it is bothering the crap out of me to leave it this way! JMOR?
