There should be two 5/16 cap screws holding the solenoid to the nosecone housing, it will need to twist a bit to clear the fixed power tab on the starter, but it does come off. They are fairly universal and should be easy to source.The back bakelite housing comes off and you can access the terminal that spins, if you're like me and like to repair things if possible. I know that the big terminals are square headed copper bolts, and they can be turned 180 degrees to put the new side into play when they erode down from disc contact. Can't remember if the small ones are the same, but it's worth a look; if the bolt head is rounded maybe the unused one from the other end could be put in it's place.</blockquote>
