Did some testing on the starter after my arm gave out. <br /><br />Seems the starter is fine or appears to be. But the solenoid is shot.<br /><br />Have to order the new one as prime boating season has them on back order.<br /><br />Can I just use a similar auto solinoid and if so <br />12v seems obvious but what about amp rating?<br />100amp seems to be the norm (for auto), and 200 amp .... will<br /><br />I'll just tap into the house service for that ...<br /><br />I realize I'll have to (or should) replace with a marine solenoid, but for now the 10-15 bucks will get me going and the 40 and the wait well... <br />I'm an impatient geek ...<br /><br />thanks in advance
