[TR] TR3 question

I'm slowly making progress on the 57 TR3.  I bought a new ground strap and 
I can't remember where it gets attached.  (Actually, the car was so patched 
up I'm sure it was not connected per factory anyway.)  At the moment I have 
it attached to one of the two bolts securing the engine mount to the frame 
and to one of the bolts securing the timing chain cover to the front engine 
plate.  This works but maybe the guys at the factory had other ideas.  

My BRAND NEW starter solenoid doesn't work.  The coil pulls in just fine 
but there is no contact closure.  I can push the button and still no joy.  My 
old one works just fine.

BTW I started the engine for the first time in 5 years so there's that.  
Now to fix that gas leak.

Dave
