On our M25 engines there was/is an inline fuse between the start button in the cockpit panel and the engine. Details in the Critical Upgrades sticky topic.

I have photos, but can't figure out how to attach them.

I just think you may have missed what I said in my post. Your head is wrapped around GPs because it's "a relay." Just forget about the GPs, it had nothing to do w/ them.
This is all about the (yellow/red) "S" wire to the starter (see his pics.)

Stu, it is not a preheat solenoid/relay.
Installing that relay was as stupid a "fix" as it would be to leave an ammeter in the panel and run heavy cable up and back to overcome the voltage loss. No matter what the life of the relay is, it does not belong there rather than fixing the harness.

What the PO has done is introduced an unnecessary component into the system and thus another failure point that will stop you dead if it fails. You should trash it and run a yellow #10 "S" wire (yellow, run a red sharpie down it) to replace the OEM #16 gauge "S" wire.

As the old saying in racing goes "It costs money to run up front".

So unless you prefer to do burn rate calculations probably best to keep a sharp eye on the gauge should you find yourself at the bottom side of the gauge.
