Hydraulics are fixed, NEW problem, engine won't shut off.

[Mr. Cob]

Howdy All,

Thanks so much for your help in getting my loader working again. Before I started to work on the tractor I hit it with my pressure washer so I could even find or see the things I had to work on. I went to start the tractor to test the hydraulics, they worked well, then turned the key to shut the tractor down and it continued to run. Pinched the rubber fuel line in front of the electric fuel pump, engine continued to run. I had to disconnect the air out let tube where it exits the air filer housing and block the inlet to the engine with a piece of stiff cardboard to stop the engine.

I am "ASSUMING" that the key must operate an electric solenoid that shuts off fuel to the engine that must have gotten wet when I used the pressure washer, does anyone know where I should look for this solenoid on a BX23?

Thanks for your help.

Dave

No idea, but maybe you can use a blower to try to get rid of any left over water and then run it a bit to let it dry.

When asking for information you MUST state you have a BX23D (OLDER) and not a BX23S (NEWER).
They are nothing alike.

There is a manual stop lever:



Here is the stop solenoid, it's behind the injection pump.

The solenoid is probably attached to the fuel injection pump.

You can look here for illustrated parts lists that will probably show where it is.

Howdy N I W,

The ONLY identification I see on my tractor is, "BX23", I know it's NOT a BX23S, but I don't see a "D" on it anywhere.

"I" am a computer IDIOT, my search skills are extremely limited, if I can put a wrench on it, weld it, machine it or beat it with a big hammer I can usually fix it. If the job requires an internet search for information, working with electricity, anything electronic unless CLOSELY supervised my meddling usually results in a fire. Tomorrow when it's daylight I will try to find this part on the machine. Thanks for this information.

Yes there are only 3 variants of the BX23's.
The BX23D and the BX23S, BX23S-1

All older BX23's are BX23D's and all newer BX23's are either BX23S or BX23S-1.
