Part store strike out

My local NAPA sucks. They are nearly as bad as WalMart. Nobody knows a thing about anything, anymore

And nobody anywhere seems to know how to look something up by "other than" application, and OhReally's numerical/ pictorial guide, example, gives no info on stuff like "Ford like" starter solenoids. I wanted an insulated base for an old outboard, but not the bracketless "saddle" type it came with, and they could not come up with anything. He showed me right in the listing........just says "12V starter relay" or some such.

Don't the corporate idiots understand they are throwing out customers?
