Hello, This is a follow up on a post i put up a while ago. I am putting a remote mount solinoid in my 72 454 since i have just installed headers and i don't want any hot start problems. I got a bad solinoid from summit and ordered another one, got that one and it was bad also. I even checked both on the work bench by hooking up power to the battery side and grounding the mounting plate then put a screw driver across the power terminal and the s terminal and it made a light buzzing sound but did not transfer the power to the other side ( starter side terminal ). I did not get any power readings at all. That should have gotten power readings. I called the summit tech dept and they said i should get a reading when i do this. They were not suprised that it was bad and siad to try another one. I am going to buy a ford solinoid at the local auto parts and try that out tomorrow. Hopefully i will get a good one. I keep you posted.
Eric
