Chevy 350 installed in truck. I remember attaching the wire from the ignition switch to the solenoid before I mounted the starter because I was aware of the difficulty getting to that little bugger. Unfortunately I didn't have the foresight to include a lock-washer and the wire has come off. I can't remember how to get this wire secured. My fingers don't fit in there and I don't see how to get that little nut on there (not to mention a lock washer) and get it tight. I can manage to get the wire loop connector on there, just not the nut. Any suggestions? Thanks -BA
