=== S30 Starter Wiring Modification === If you have had chronic starting problems with your Z (solenoid click but starter doesn't turn) this might be the cure you need. If the solenoid clicks, you know your ignition switch is OK. Probably nothing wrong with the starter either. Putting a voltmeter on the solenoid terminal on the starter with the key on the "START" position will probably show a reading of much less than 12 volts, likely 6-8 volts. That's enough to actuate the solenoid but not enough to keep it engaged. The click you hear is the solenoid returning to rest. There is just too much resistance (from age) in the circuits involved to deliver 12 volts. This minor project will deliver full batter voltage to the solenoid and take the load off of the ignition switch.
