Bosch SR15N on FI Car - Extra Solenoid Wire

[64blackplatevert]

I purchased a Bosch SR15N for my 1968 FI Squareback. It only has one spade at terminal 50.

I have two wires that go to the solenoid:

1. Wire 18 from the fuel injection
2. Wire from the ignition

Can I run this starter with a 2 to 1 spade connector on terminal 50?

Is there a better solution?

I would recommend you use the sheathed Y-connector instead of the piggyback tab connector, which will loosen from vibration. A little more work, but it will be more durable. Crimp the wires using a factory-style double crimper, or at least solder and shrink wrap them.

Note: that other terminal 50 wire is to operate the cold start valve. Living in southern California, you will probably never need it. Depending on year, the CSV only operates below freezing, sometimes far below, and only while cranking.
