4.5 Fuel Solenoid

The fuel solenoid serves to pull the injector pump lever
to the fuel-on position when energized.
solenoid is spring loaded to return the injector-pump
lever to the fuel-off position when deenergized.
The generators in this manual use a 3-lead fuel

solenoid. This solenoid has a white lead (P) which

energizes the pull-in coil only during cranking. During
operation, the red lead energizes the hold coil and the
black lead is the common ground.
Current (amps) and resistance readings are shown in
Figure 4-5.
solenoid windings are open or shorted. These readings
must be taken with fuel solenoid disconnected from
engine wiring harness.
