Thanks for posting this question. My 71 has an idle stop solenoid but the PO has it wired up to a manual switch for when running aux devices. Normally the idle is "low" (sol switch off) and the engine does diesel a bit when shut off. It almost looks like I need to rewire that sol so that it goes ON when the engine is ON. ???

regards
