Okay I am having a big issue with my 1984 f150 with a 351. Out of no where my fender mounted solenoid keeps blowing. I can turn it over once and then it blows. I get no power at all after that. I replace it and the same thing happens. I replaced the starter, the wire that goes from the starter to the solenoid, and also wired in a push start button. I wired it to the s terminal and the positive battery terminal with an in line fuse. But no change. Also the ignition switch seems to work just fine. The solenoid keeps blowing. I am completely stuck.. I have also tried every brand you can get.

the cables going from your battery to the solenoid and starter are shot then, i would replace all of them, negative to ground on starter, then positive to the solenoid and solenoid to starter. its a common problem with these pickups. if after you replace them you have the issue again you will need another new starter
