These come with a replacement nut to tighten
down the wire connections to the solenoid. For
some reason this is a half-width nut. I can't see
any reason not to use a wider nut for this; I
was replacing a previous Bosch unit that I didn't
install and it had been done with the skinny nut.
With the incoming wire, a bit of the solenoid
housing, and the thin nut it probably took me
an extra 15 minutes or so to get this loose.

So I put a wider nut on the new one. This turned
out good because I soon found a use for a thin
nut....
