Looks like I'm not the only one who did the "econo-rebuild" on a solenoid!

and back in those days----------that strip on a match book got me out of trouble lots of times-especially on the second set of points in a Ford dual point distributor

LOL! I used a business card! And, I still do to time the magneto on my lawn mower!!
