50croyal Posted July 30, 2024 Report Posted July 30, 2024 Hey everyone, im having some issues with the starter solenoid on my 1950 chrysler royal. I had all the wiring hooked up and in the right place and relay coil worked just fine but the pull-in coil isn’t doing its job at engaging everything else. I’ve looked around at other forums and they said you could rewind the pull in coil, so thats what im trying to do but i cant pull the coil out because its crimped into the housing. So does anyone have any experience rebuilding the autolite solenoids with all 4 studs in the front that cant give me some tips? Or does anyone have a autolite solenoid that they would sell for a good price Quote

Solution The M Posted September 4, 2024 Solution Report Posted September 4, 2024 Hi! You need to drill a hole into the weld, just on one side. Then you can bend the housing slightly to move the inner coil. Keep in mind, though, that bending it back and rewelding can be quite difficult. 1 Quote
