Installed new solenoid on 1974 ford p/u 6 cyl. when turn key on not engaging starter. any ideas ? or suggestions
If the solenoid is clicking when key held in start position, indicates power not being transferred to starter, probably down to poor connection at rear of solenoid, some have contacts internally behind the solenoid slider
SOURCE: starter stays engaged
The starter relay on the fender is the most common cause of this condition. ,It is on passenger side feder in the engine compartment, it is round and the positive cable of the battery goes to it,
SOURCE: Where can I get a wiring diagram for my 95 Geo
If you get a Haynes repair manual it will have all of the wiring diagrams for the car.
SOURCE: new battery, starter will not turn
Check if you have signal from ignition switch to starter , also what was the reason to replace battery? , you may lost your immobilizer sincro , I've seen that happened. If that's the case - probably dealer only or advenced auto shop.

It sounds like the small tickler wires may be reversed to the Solenoid.
If no success, call Itasca and ask if there were any changes for this Solenoid. There are several types of Solenoid with the grounding being the major internal difference. Most likely your wires are switched.
If these wires are properly attached, then check for power and/or damage to wires. The secondary will only energize when the ignition switch is engaged, so you'll need help (test when not attached to starter).
