And it does as you say. S to the bottom post is about 0.4 ohms, and S to the case is about 0.8 ohms. So, I guess that means the solenoid is OK. I'm guessing that also means when the solenoid operates, some current goes to the case through the case coil, but since the other resistance is half, most of the current goes to the starter. I just don't understand why any current should go to the case.

Also, the newer one was noticeably smaller in size than the original one. Maybe it just doesn't have the fortitude to keep the plunger in. The newer one's plunger tube was shorter and the barrel was much smaller than the original.

I will see what the other one I ordered does for me when it gets here and let you all know.
