The solenoid unit looks like the same type as the one Lepke posted previously.

1,
Solenoid installation on bracket carrying the red throttle cable.
I disconnected the plastic radiator overflow pipe to give a clearer photo.

2, Solenoid wire cable pull to stop lever. (apologies for the dusty engine).

3, Solenoid.
Irish - this is really helpful. Question: looks like you do not have a manual stop cable in addition to solenoid? Some others have suggested might be a good idea for emergency - fire for example. Thoughts for all?
