HI All,
I finally got a DC amp meter and checked the draw on my starter that keeps welding solenoids shut. The inrush current is 495A and running current is
250A. Does this seem excessive? The starter has no problem turning the motor and none of the cables get even warm after 10-15 seconds of cranking. If this amperage is within acceptable limits, I am going to try an OEM solenoid and see if I have better luck. If the amp draw is high, I guess it is time to dig into the engine and see why.
