The OD solenoid can be very reliable over many years. Given your bad luck with solenoids there may be another unknown variable causing you grief. The electrical system on my car is completely stock and the only upgrades are additional grounding straps at the motor mount and the OD mount in addition to the grounding strap by the starter.

I’ve found that. Good original Lucas solenoid is far better than the Chinese copies sold today.
