Standard Ignition SS-213 Starter Solenoid - Starter Mounted

Starter Solenoid for Ford 1966 Applications

Standard Ignition SS-213 is a 12-volt starter solenoid built for starter-mounted Ford applications from 1966. It is engineered with heavy-duty copper contacts, pure copper windings, and low-resistance terminal materials to help deliver full battery power to the starter with reduced voltage drop.

Compatible With 1966 Ford Bronco, Starter Mounted; 1966 Ford Econoline, Starter Mounted; 1966 Ford F-100, Starter Mounted; 1966 Ford F-250, Starter Mounted; 1966 Ford F-350, Starter Mounted.

Key Features

• 12-volt starter solenoid for starter-mounted Ford starting systems
• Heavy-duty copper contacts help reduce arcing and support longer service life
• More pure copper windings than many OE units for a stronger magnetic field
• Polyester-insulated magnet wire and cadmium-plated copper discs help reduce voltage drop
• Solid contact bolts and pure copper battery terminal studs support higher current flow
• Black housing with chrome finish, round male connector, and screw terminals
• 4-terminal design; continuous duty: no

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition SS-213 is a starter solenoid for classic Ford trucks and vans that need reliable starter-mounted electrical switching. The design focuses on current transfer and heat resistance, using copper-based internal components to help maintain strong starter engagement and consistent cranking performance. This part number, SS-213, is a direct-fit style solution for 1966 Ford Bronco, Econoline, F-100, F-250, and F-350 applications listed in the fitment data.

This part cross-references Spectra Premium ST113 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Slow or weak starter engagement
• Voltage drop between the battery and starter
• Intermittent no-crank conditions caused by worn solenoid contacts
• Electrical resistance from aged terminal connections
• Heat-related starting issues in demanding underhood environments

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle uses a starter-mounted solenoid and confirm the 12-volt electrical system before installation. Match the round male connector, screw terminals, and 4-terminal layout to the original unit. Clean battery cables and starter connections during replacement to help preserve current flow and reduce repeat starting problems.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition manufactures starting and charging system components with controlled production processes and high-grade materials. SS-213 is built with copper-focused internal construction to support electrical performance and service life in classic Ford starting systems.
