Phil,

I appreciate very much this repair you are describing here.

I was having same problem last jan. 4 and car was parked with nose down about 30°.

Had to use a long screw driver to make contact between the two bolts at the solonoid while someone else will turn the contact key inside the car.

Before I take the solonoid apart I will try to reproduce the problem by putting the starter in the freezer, hold it in a vice at 30° with solonoid down, and connect 12v on it, just like when it failed.

Thank you for this repair description.
