Jim, comparing what you wrote to my starter leaves things a bit muddled for me.

Well, there are three spade lugs.  Two are doubled up on one 
electrical connection on one side of the solenoid's end.  The third 
spade connector, electrically different from the first two, is on the 
opposite side.

Now, none of the spade lugs have continuity with the big 8mm stud 
that connects to the battery.

However, the double spade lug has continuity with the 8mm stud that 
runs into the body of the starter.

Which side receives the ignition switch signal?
