Ignition Switch / Fuel Shutoff QUESTION

Is the ignition switch also a vacuum valve or is the fuel shutoff solenoid activated electronically from a wire from the ignition switch?

Thanks in advance

The ignition switch is a vacuum valve, theres no electrical connection to the shutoff at all. It directly puts vacuum to the shutoff valve.
