I actually think the relay sticking is magnetism, because that is what it feels like when I release it. But, there is no "residual" because once I release it, it will not re-stick (for lack of a better term). Nothing sticky on the points (I have very lightly filed them) and the spring seems OK. It is almost like it is electric, with the field broken when I open the points, but not until I open them. That doesn't seem to make a lot of sense with no power going to the relay.

Anyway, once I put it back together and get it off the jack stands, if it needs more attantion, it will probably be under the hood. Looking forward to the test drive.
