Abstract
The present invention is a heat shield apparatus for shielding a solenoid of a starter from heat generated by an engine. The apparatus is provided with a heat shield positionable between the engine and the solenoid. A clipping assembly is connected to the heat shield for clippingly and detachably connecting the heat shield to the solenoid of the starter such that the heat shield is maintained a predetermined distance from the solenoid and in a predetermined position whereby the heat shield shields the solenoid from heat.
