Starter solenoid looseness

[dieseldan44]

Hi all,

Need some help with my starter. As it has gotten cold, occasionally the starter goes 'click' when I go to start it. I get it to start by holding the key in start and working the shifter from D to N. Eventually it catches.

This happened same time last year. I tightened the start connections at the solenoid and all was well.

Went down to do the same this year, when I got to tighten the connections the entire solenoid assembly will rotate.

Is there any way to remedy this or am I taking the starter out?

(NSS has already been replaced - and is properly adjusted and working)

Thanks!
