Josh,

 

I like the idea of the solenoid.  As far as using the re-purposed cable for 
pre-lube, I’d be concerned about pumping raw water in to the exhaust manifold.  
There would not be any exhaust manifold pressure while pumping raw water.  
Maybe I’m paranoid?

Hey Ron, 

 

You might want to consider eliminating the pull to stop cable all together.  
You can see the the "engine stop solenoid" which the background of my video.  
The PO installed this and I love it.  I'm thinking of re-purposing the pull 
cable as a "pull to decompress".  It would then serve 2 purposes - pre start 
decompression/pre-lube, and emergency shutdown.

The shaft on the knob end of the engine stop cable for my Yanmar 3HM35F has 
rusted so badly that the cable sticks.  The inner part of the original cable 
appeared to be solid stainless steel wire.  The replacement cable inner part is 
stranded and apparently not stainless steel.  It was easily attracted to a 
magnet.   

 

I’m looking for an alternative all stainless replacement.  So far, I struck out 
with Teleflex/Morse.  Does anyone have any recommendations.
