    Default Solenoid

    It was put in by Parliment and I assume they got at local Auto parts house but I do not have a clue as to the part number. Sorry. Dan

    Default Problem Solved

    Kevin Erion wins the Jerk Chicken Dinner via parcel post for his correct diagnosis of the problem.

    Failed Injector pump fuel solenoid.

    This is the solenoid removed.

    Side of the injector pump. You can put your finger in the hold to manipulate the fuel valve to see if the engine will run. I have to admit I didn't try this, but saw the tech from Kohler succesfully make it happen.

    This is with the solenoid in place. This is now an internal solenoid setup.


    On the older gensets this was an external setup and you could see the actuator arm extend from the solenoid into the side of the ejector pump to verify it was working. On my unit w/ the internal setup you had no way of knowing if the solenoid was working or not.
