TP-5606 6/023-8 Scheduled Maintenance
Fuel Solenoid
The fuel solenoid (Figure 3-8) serves to stop fuel flow
through the fuel injection pump when the
start-stop/preheat switch is placed in the STOP position.
If the fuel solenoid is removed or the setting is believed
incorrect, readjust according to the following procedure.
Do not modify the solenoid linkage during reconnection.
1. Disconnect the ball joint from the fuel solenoid
plunger.
2. Pull the linkage toward the fuel solenoid until the
fuel control lever contacts its internal full-open
stop.
3. Push the linkage back toward the fuel control lever
1/16 in. (1.6 mm) and hold the linkage in this
position.
4. Push the plunger fully into the solenoid.
5. Adjust the linkage length so the ball joint can be
attached to the fully depressed plunger while the
fuel control lever is still 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) from the
full-open position.
6. Re-attach the ball joint to the solenoid plunger.
