Great news. The theory of new does not always mean good holds true.

No kidding. I went through 3 or 4 brand new starter solenoids before I found one that worked. It really keeps you second guessing that what you're fixing is actually the problem.

I think the problem will be back.
It sounds to me like a bad plug on the ignition coil. Just cut the plug off and splice in a new plug.
I have seen this happen a lot of times before.
The coil you just replaced was a good one.
