Yesterday I couldn't turn my car over at all.
The starter spun up just fine, but the engine stayed put. I figured in all likely hood that I either had a stripped bendix gear or a blown solenoid.

Pulled the starter earlier today... The bendix and flywheel look 100%, so decided to ohm out the solenoid and sure enough I couldn't read continuity.

Anyone know where I can get a replacement? Please keep in mind that I am living in Italy (US service member), and NAPA, Honda, or Autozone ain't just down the street from me.

BTW: Anyone know of a likely cause of this failure? I only have 18000 on my S2K, and it seams a bit odd that such a part would fail so early in the cars life.

I have a new starter incoming... Should be here sometime next week.

Also I've just recently ordered the following.
-AEM cold air intake.
-Engine torque dampener.
-Radiator hose kit (Blue).
-Gage pillon for UEGO AFI gage.
