Abstract: A solenoid is affixed to a bracket having a base complementary in configuration to a portion of the housing of a diesel engine fuel pump governor that is spaced from the governor's run/stop member; the bracket is mounted on the governor housing by two bolts that also serve to join two halves of the governor housing. A lever mounted on the run/stop member of the governor is connected, by a connecting rod and swivel connection, to the solenoid plunger, so that plunger movement responsive to energization of the solenoid rotates the run/stop member to a RUN position; on de-energization of the solenoid its spring drives the run/stop member to a STOP position. A support rod affixed to the center of the bracket and mounted to the governor housing by a cover mounting bolt braces the bracket against engine vibration.
