Ok, now that you've stopped laughing, anybody have one that they're willing to sell? Do not not require OEM, NOS, NORS. Working reproduction is fine.

Send price and a condition pic please.

Thanks!

Not laughing, I sold my original one off the 2bbl carburetor with the correct attachment bracket for about 75 bucks on Ebay at least 15 years ago.

I saw a non-working repro for around that on ebay just a few weeks ago.

Think I got one in a box somewhere. No bracket.

Bob,

If it's in working order, let's talk.

Could you disassemble the 2nd style and put it in the old style case?

Another style that looks like you could pull the insides out and replace. Link Link

Interesting idea Harold. I don't have either solenoid in hand to know what it would take to disassemble and replace the guts.

I have a couple of these that work and hold good. 100.00 shipped.

Thanks Harold. Picked one up on Ebay with a bracket a month ago. Missing the rubber boot but otherwise great shape. If nobody takes it off your hands, I might grab it as a spare.
