Carburetor and prime solenoid

[alasanii]

Good day everyone ,
I have problem again with solenoid on my 40 hp ETLD 1990.
1.Can I use some other models carburetor without solenoid ?
2.My remote control 703 is without prime knob,so how I can activate choke solenoid without knob ?
3.Also I noticed big fuel consumption on engine,whta do you think about cause of such big consumption ?
Please advise,
Thank you in advance

Are you speaking about the prime start heater unit or is it a choke solenoid?
More info is needed for any type of help,
what does big fuel consumption mean in comparison to normal

[alasanii]

I think that is choke solenoid

[99yam40]

Pushing in on the key while in the on position or start position usually engages the choke

My remote without push key for choke solenoid

My remote without push key for choke solenoid

Can I operate solenoid manually ?

[99yam40]

who through that thing together without rigging it properly?
Mount a momentary push ****on or switch.

Most motors I have seen that have chokes have a manual lever on them also.

It means,that I can install new push (or any activation device) knob on boat body and connect there two link from solenoid - one positive and one negative
am I right ?

Please reply

that is a prime start model.
you simply have NO electric choke.
you can push the key in all day long but NOTHING will happen.
it either works right or its broke.
myself, based on your description, I would be carfully checking the prime start diaphram assy and the oring on the manual,off and normal pin.

Thank you for good advise

I will check and will inform you results

Thanks

Solenoid now is working properly.

Thank you for advise

its NOT a solinoid, its an electrothermal valve that is powered by the lighting coil when the engine is running.
as the wax heats the needle is pushed out closing off the enrichment circuits.

[alasanii]

Yes,you are right.
I test it today.
After each start fuel goes to head cylinder -for easy start and then closed automatically when remove hand from ignition key.

Thanks

the key switch has NOTHING to do with the prime start.
thats a function of electrothermal temp and the lighting coil.
the key switch power does not activate the prime start system.
