    Hello Members ! I was wondering if anyone has any advice as to where to get an idle stop solenoid for the afformentioned engine. Is this a simple trip to the parts store , or do I need to send Leonard Nimoy "In Search Of ....." ?(Showing my age ! ) Thanks ! Kevin. :TU:

    Hi Kevin,
    I have a few of those, both used and NOS. In fact I just shipped Marc Schiff 3 used ones.

    Hi Kevin,
    I think I have 2 more used solenoids and 5 NOS. Let me figure out a price on them and I will let you know.
    The gaskets fit all 350 and 455 applications from 72 through 74.
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Hi, looking for one of those solenoids for a 1973 Centurion 455 4BBL AT & A/C. Please give me a quote for a new one including shipping. As far i could find out that's a 73 item only and one from 72 will not fit.
    Thanks
