Third, my starter didn't work after driving for a couple of hours to get there so I had to push start after stopping for breakfast on the way.

I checked connections at the dash and all was good, voltage was good, etc.  I crawled underneath and wiggled the + side of the solenoid- felt good.  I grabbed the - side and snap.  I've got the bolt in hand along with a handful of plastic from where the thing broke into a dozen pieces.  I did NOT grab it that hard.  Can I buy just the solenoid?  Does anyone have an extra?

Is it a 6V ? What model? I think I have a couple 6V starters out in the
shop.
