Needing idle control solenoids - Zenith 32/40 INAT ('72 250)
Anyone have extra idle control solenoids lying around? Or do you have any ideas where I might track some down?

Only for the webers... they came with the kit but I omitted them. I'm not sure they are really mandatory on either type of carb. Do you have run-on problems after you turn it off or do you just want to keep it totally original? My zeniths had no idle solenoids at all as stock for instance.

I do prefer to keep it as original as possible, but I'm not sure how to bypass the solenoids. I have 3 extras, none of which work, so I'm thinking I can gut one and just keep fuel there all the time - knowing that it might lead to dieseling problems.

Plug the holes...
they are threaded into. I did that, and it works fine.

Yea, I decided to cut off one of the ends of a bad solenoid and I plugged the end with a screw with some aviation gasket sealer on it and screwed it in the hole. Works fine... thanks.
