I depends on the solenoid ,are you talking a solenoid that is part of the starter ? gm,dodge or old fords ,, some can take 8amps to operate but can hold a 100 amp to the starter,,

if you have a good multimeter it has to capability to measure the amp draw thru a amp clamp

to add if your starter motor is seasoned it will draw more amps to operate
