When I turn key I get intermittent response from starter. Sometimes nothing, other times barley cranks. Rebuilt starter from bruce. New battery jumping posts with key on or off only spins starter motor. Bad starter?

It could just be the normal "time to put a Ford solenoid on there". The original is picky about 12v. Google it. I will be heading for the door before the purists get here....

IMHO, running a relay is a good idea regardless.

There's really no need to run all that current through the starter switch.
