hey i have a 1990 chevy s-10 blazer with a 2.6L v6. i am having problems with the starter/solenoid, when i go to start it, it will click a coupe of times then when it turns the engine over the solenoid doesn't disengage even if i turn the key off. On the new starters does it come with both starter and solenoid or is it just one or the other causing this problem? When i turn it over and it doesn't really disengage it'll keep cranking until the motor gets tired i'm assuming then usually it'd start right after. Now it won't even click when i try to start it.

Short out the starter solenoid if it cranks the engine over-check and test the park and neutral switch and ignition switch. If not double check the connections and have the starter load tested.
