Your explanation is in reverse of how my retard works.
My retard is canceled when the 2 way valve is energized.
The system you describe has constant power and cancels the retard when the power is turned off.
My retard timing is canceled, and timing advances when the AC is turned on.
So, if my ignition retard is not connected there would be no issue in the car stalling when the AC is on because the ignition advance would already be present.
Thanks

Two-way valve and solenoid are the same thing, just different terms. I use solenoid because that is what it is. Look in the manual for job #14-050 for a description of how the system works on your SL.
