10, be sure to slide the small return spring back inside the magnet before sliding it into the wire core housing.

11 After the can comes back from the plater reassemble in the reverse order. To retain the assembly you can bend the crimped areas back over to retain the washer and use a bit of JB Weld or similar to lock it into place, be sure it's set all the way into the can. Screwing the plunger in and pulling it in helps get it into place.

Here is an exploded view of a typical solenoids internals, aside from the outer casing mounting brackets they all have the same configuration. The reproductions on the market look the same externally with a few minor differences in the rubber boots, but internally they went cheap on the copper and they are weaker than originals, failures are VERY common with them.

Can anyone go into detail on the round plunger top vs the hex top
with wire connector. Which were used on what cars?
Does it call for a different number?

Can someone explain the function of the idle stops?




There is a base idle (solenoid not energized) so the car will shut off without dieseling. This is usually around 500-700 RPM
With the solenoid energized, it pushes the plunger out, raising the idle so it idles smooth.
This is usually around 1000-1100 RPM.

Is there a list of what number for what application. And I went and looked at mine and I have a hex head one with no number on it. What would that fit.

There is no (reliable) list that I've seen publicized but a few of us here on Moparts posted one a while back, I'll see if I can dig it up. In general, most cans with no stamped number and a small brass hex head are generic replacements.

re: 1970 340

What determined if the car (carb) received the idle solenoid?
One of my 4933 has it, including that interesting extra power feed from the alternator. Another 4933 does not have it nor the power wire.
I have 6 or 7 other 1970 340 carbs. Some have it some don't?

I also have 1 with Stenciled #1114423 and a round head. I will assume this also a replacement.

At least I have a DR1114429 for my Superbird.
Still have to find the correct one for my 72 6 pack car.

The 1114423 is not a generic replacement,it is O.E.M. Pontiac Ram Air 1V.

If it had California emissions in 1970 it got the solenoid.

That's what I have been thinking, BUT, my original 1970 `cuda340 sold new in TN has it? (Hamtramck built) Just curious if there were other possible parameters that this solenoid would have been installed from the factory. [or even dealer installed]

What controls when the solenoid is energized? I haven't had any problems with dieseling, but I have noticed that coming to an abrupt stop, the car briefly wants to stall before regaining it's composure. If this allowed idle to be higher at some times, but lower at others, this might be beneficial, but again, I don't understand what controls it's operation.

Don't feel too bad, lowly '70-'71 340 guys, there's always us '72-'74 guys out there.

The key in the "ON" position. It gets 12 volts from the alternator Field terminal.
The plunger is directed to extend any time the electricity is present. When the key is first engaged, the plunger may not extend fully until the carb is opened a little (like to engage the choke on a cold start). Once the carb is opened a little, the plunger stays extended until the electricity is removed (ie. Turn the key to OFF).
