Starting problem

I am having a starting problem with SV.

After driving the car for a few minutes, if I shut it off and try to
start it again, it will not start. If I disconnect the coil, it turns
over fine. I have tried two separate solenoids, one older and one
newer. The newer one seemed to work at first, but it's definitely no
better than the old one. The car will start ok after it has cooled
down. Is my problem the solenoid, the battery or my starter?

Smitty says it's just because my engine is new and not broken in. I
understand the principle but I have a hard time believing that the
tolerances are that tight.
