I owned a '76 Ford pickup for 24 years with the original black starter
relay (same as supplied for Lancairs) with no problems. It was
mounted in the engine compartment on the right inner fender well and was
subject to extreme heat and cold.

hydraulic

part
numbers posted here sometime during the last
year).
