ooops. killed my solenoid ?
i went to take the POS battery cable off my starter....it was a little stuck due to age.....i heard a nice loud CRACK and the stud seems a little loose.
i am assuming trying to start the car would be a mistake and i need to pull that solenoid....what do you think i broke ?
on the positive side of things i DID get the motor mount on !

That is an understatement, I do a lot of electrical work and sometimes I work with the battery connected when I shouldn't BUT I never ever work at the starter with the battery connected.Thumbs up to to you 
it only takes 30 seconds to remove the neg cable,be safe. 
Oh and I've broken my fair share of solenoids.
