    66 starter solenoid ?

    Hi, restoring my original starter in my oct built 66 with aL79 motor , the latest information manual states the solenoid is cad or zinc but mine was black like the starter case and appears like the original one with the caulking still between the solenoid and case .
    so should it be black or cad zinc finish
    thanks Bob Peckham

    In my opinion, MANY of the original starter solenoids were painted black. I know the original solenoid on my 1969 was black. However, the solenoid was not painted with the starter. It was painted prior to its installation on the starter and the cover was not painted.

      I agree. My 67 original starter solenoid was painted black. I disassembled the solenoid during restoration and also found black paint under/inside the bakelite cap. The cap was NOT painted.

        Same here, with an NOS switch unit (D-969, # 1114356) in the orange/black/white box, with Delco Remy instructions dated 7-26-63. Black Bakelite cap not painted.
