Hello everyone. Been a while and a long winter. Built a new boat from scratch. Was a shell going to be burned. Its looking great. Now i picked up the 60ESL70b for 200 dollars and got everything running smooth and great EXCEPT one issue. Ive been doing all kinds of research and when ever i have anything i cant figure out i always end up here. 
When i start it it starts great but sometimes the starter is still engaged. I have to remove the cable from the battery quick or it heats up fast. The starter seems to be working good and isnt sticking. Even with the key off sometimes by connecting the cable from the solenoid to the battery back up it will spin the starter up. Im figuring the solenoid is going bad and is keeping contact sometimes which is providing power to the starter. Ive tested the switch and even tried another swith between the ignition and the solenoid. Didnt matter still spun the starter. If needed till i find the right part i could always just disconnect the starter from the solenoid and jump it as needed with a separate wire ran to the battery compartment.
Ive been looking for the proper solenoid to replace it with. ********** gave the part number of 0383622 but im not too familiar with them. Iboats says that the Sierra 18-5808, Arco SW622 and Mallory 9-15104 are the correct ones and that they replace 582708 and 395419. My question is are these correct before i go ordering one because i have not seen those "Replaces" parts numbers anywhere else. Ive also heard that local auto stores have ones that will work but i dont want one that may fry out after a few uses. Thanks for the time and hope to get some answers i can work with.
