Emerg. shut off cable handle quest.

[Steamynachos]

Can any one tell me if the t handle for the fuel shut off cable is threaded on or uses a set screw. I have the cable in my truck but the T handle on the end is missing so I been using pliers can I just buy the handle or would I be better just to order a whole new cable?

Is this for a 54 or 813?

 

[Steamynachos]

Its for my M813A1

handle

I've never seen just a handle for sale but that doesn't there ain't one. The M809 series should shut down when you turn the switch off but some have been bypass and then you have to use the fuel shut off. Wayne

RE: handle

And remember that the manual shut down is a one way... it is not spring loaded to close...it is a true emergency shutdown valve... and you have to go under the hood to correct the original problem and to reset the valve....if you try to push it back in from the dash you just bend the wire...The electric fuel shut off in the accessory switch is the preferred way...

Shut off

I'll be!! I didn't know that, mine(M816) has always been shutdown by the stop and I remember I would have to push it back from under the hood. I just thought the little setscrew clamp had fell off! I found one someplace and put it on the cable and it works both ways now. Wayne

I use the starter switch to shut down the truck but I would like the handle just in case I need to do an emergency shutdown

I think you'll have to order a whole new cable. If it is like the one on my 923A2, I believe the handle is crimped into position. Mine has "EMERGENCY ENGINE STOP" on the end in red letters. If you have the Parts & Tools manual for the truck, let me know what the NSN is for the cable. If it is the same as a 900, then I might know where a used one is if you can't find a new one.

I can't find a NSN but the part number is 11664388 as far as I can tell.

Thanks guys

stop

That number comes back to several NSN Saturn Surplus has one with this NSN you'll need to call to be sure it is what you want. Wayne
