olskool1969 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 hey, I'm new to this. Can you buy new anti dieseling solenoids? where from? or can it be taken out and blocked off? cheers Quote
Evan G Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 why not fix the problem than adding things to cover it? Quote
love ke70 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 why not shut the f@$k up? they came on cars for a reason, its a fuel stop when the ignition power is killed. why do you want to remove it? i would suggest just sourcing a second hand one if your one is faulty, but I'm sure your auto parts store worth there cream could source you something new Quote
Evan G Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 should of asked this first, but what car? also why do you think you need a anti dieseling solenoid? is your engine running on when the ignition is off? try cleaning the carbon out of your head with the subaru (insert name) stuff/check fuel solenoid um love ke70 uncalled for? lucky i love you Quote
TRD ke70 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 (edited) also why do you think you need a anti dieseling solenoid? Because they are factory fitted to k series cabies, also known as a fuel cut off solenoid. It shuts off fuel to the idle circuit when you turn the ignition off, stops the engine running on. They do shit them self's a lot. Oh sorry welcome, also for what engine? A little bit more info is always good :yes: Edited March 3, 2010 by TRD ke70 Quote
jono1986 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 Oh hey, i thought i'd be the only one to say welcome. Don't know why people would abuse you over a simple question, try sprint auto's, if they can't supply them just get one from a wreckers. And its better to have one in there as well. Quote

Don't know why people would abuse you over a simple question, try sprint auto's, if they can't supply them just get one from a wreckers. And its better to have one in there as well. It's only a stock 3k-c. its got a new fuel pump, carbs been rebuilt, new fuel lines, tanks been cleaned out. it only happens on the way home from work when its hotter. i do notice under the bonnet does tend to retain alot of heat. it's a very intermittent issue. the solenoid is getting power to it but maybe there is and internal fault with it. where in brisbane could i find one besides wreckers and parts stores Edited March 3, 2010 by olskool1969 Quote
jono1986 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 Well i think you'd be only be able to go to a parts store or a wreckers or even a genuine toyota place but they would be expensive that way, you could put up a 'wanted to buy thread' here, but i don't know how successful you'd be. Quote
parrot Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 I would certainly retain it. Any pickapart wreckers in your area would have millions of them on probably any aisen carb you find. I should imagine it would be easy to test off the car though. Earth the body of the solenoid and apply power to the lead, or if it is two pin, white/black wire to neg terminal and the other to positive and check it functions. Presumably applying power will pull the pin in, and with power out it will pop off. And check the copper seal isn't damaged when you reinstall it. Would be worthwhile checking the engine timing also, as this can result in run on if incorrect. And welcome :yes: Quote
drc_ke20 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 all i can say is welcome!all the replies you got covered your question already. Quote
olskool1969 Posted March 6, 2010 Author Report Posted March 6, 2010 I tested the solenoid at work off the car and its ok. I'm just throwing ideas around as the just cutting out is really starting to get frustrating. i've just had the carby apart againg checking for dirt in it. it was all ok. the car is fine in park and neutral. when put in drive it will run for a short time, put your foot down and it cuts out. bugger Quote

They do shit them self's a lot. Oh sorry welcome, also for what engine? A little bit more info is always good :P It wasn't factory fitted to my old KE36 or my old motor from my KE25, then again these were pre-emission models, so they weren't incorporated into the carburettor at the time of manufacture. I think it was introduced in the KE3x models and continued into the later models. Whenever I've had a carburettor from a 4K I've just plugged the hole with a bolt and fibre washer and made sure my timing was right. Have never had a car 'run on' from doing it either. :( Quote
SLO-030 Posted March 6, 2010 Report Posted March 6, 2010 (edited) Pre-emission K series carbs had the provision for the fuel cut off solenoids. they are just blocked with a small plug and copper washer. Sounds like carbon deposits in the head/piston to me. Edited March 6, 2010 by SLO-030 Quote
olskool1969 Posted March 8, 2010 Author Report Posted March 8, 2010 Whats model did the insulator plates come out on the carby Quote
