Do any of you have the slightest clue how much power the Ford Starter Solenoid is sucking out of the system...?

Re: Starter Solenoid.
Is this the master relay? From the beginning, I was skeptical about the thing and it's purpose. I have wired a few cars from scratch and 2 using Painless Wiring harnesses. None needed or called for some sort of "master relay" nor has any vehicle that I have ever seen. So, when I rebuilt my bike during the transmission swap, I gave the relay a flying lesson and never regretted it

Re: Starter Solenoid.
I tend to call it a Solenoid rather than a Relay.
Heavy metal construction with eyelet connection and sits between the Battery & Fuel pump.
Mine is also flying like yours!

Semantics. Technically, all relays are solenoids and all automotive solenoids are relays. All thumbs are fingers and all fingers aren't thumbs. hmmm, I'll bet you're giving me the finger right now.

Can't disagree with that, other Relays I've found are small 1" cube plastic boxes dotted around the bike.
