Subject:      Starter motor solenoid wires
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"


On my 87 I have removed my starter (to do a clutch job) and I forgot
which of the small solenoid tabs gets the smaller red power wire
attached (from the ignition key).  There are two connection tabs on
the solenoid (one on each side of the bolt/nut with wires to the
battery).


Do I attach to the tab nearest the outside of the van, or the one to
the inside of the van?


What is the other one for then?  Just a hot?


Thanks.
