Stanadyne Mechanical Override Device

[erasedhammer]

I've seen this device mentioned in several of stanadynes documentation about their injection pumps.
Its a mechanical linkage that can override the fuel shutoff solenoid. I think it'd be pretty cool to have on a cucv, it could make a 6.2/6.5 and entirely mechnical engine, not a single wire needed to keep the engine running.

Anyone ever heard of these? Ever seen any installed?

A lot of earlier Industrial applications, tractors, equipment, used a mechanical shut off,
Rather than solenoid.

After early eighties most were solenoid controlled.

I would love to have a cable for on/off. Like you though, I have only heard about it. Not actually seen it.

Ever see them for sale or parts for sale anywhere?

I wonder if the pump cover could be swapped over if parts could be found.

Sorta like my Kubota or an old Mercedes 220D. I have a pull stop on my tractor and a push stop on the customers Mercedes. It took me an hour to figure out how to glow and start the 1971 Mercedes when I first sat in it. I had the owners manual but it was in German and the pictures were the only thing that helped. An actual element in the dash cluster just like the Kubota. Glows red hot and starts on the first crank. Has another manual knob to advance pump timing for fast idle at cold. Good Luck. Not sure what your motive is but Good Luck. Be Safe.

The stop linkage/lever is below the top cover.
The main housings are different between the two.
You can however put a cover off a solenoid type pump on a
Mechanical pump and override the linkage to control it with current.

One such pump that comes to mind is a Case 580 B or C that uses a lever.
Google it for images.

As far as a kit to convert your top cover I'm not aware of, but I'm not
Looking either.
I'm happy with the way the OEM works and keep a replacement cover Handy.
Never needed it, but probably will now that I talked about it.

I guess all my 6.2s are different. 12V positive to pink wire top of IP or no fuel seems the norm if I recall.

I was referring to if a mechanical override device was installed, 12v would not be needed to run the engine.

^^^And I was not referring to your post, and I may have misunderstood cucvrus, .

But it is an interesting topic. While I have only had trouble with a IP fuel solenoid once in many 6.2 engines (would not turn off), I do like the elegance of all mechanical diesels. The only one I have left that is completely mechanical is my Mercedes OM 617.

Made it home from a cross country trip in an old truck who's alt had gone bad hour before home, lights were dimmer than candles, but since motor was all mechanical, I did make it home.

A complete mechanical injector pump would be great on the CUCV. That would make the engine self reliant. Then add on accessories for different capabilities.

However there is a reason for solenoid control. The manufacturer thought about the economy of assembly and ease of control and went with electric current control.

Simple enough
