John Deer/stanadyne fuel control solenoid

jm. · Nov 20, 2013

Anybody have a good source for Bicron 26214 12v solenoid Used in a Stanadyne 4 cyl John Deer application. Was told that it in fact may be the same as used in 6.9 7.3 5.7 ford truck application. Anyone know for sure.

Some older 12V solenoids were the shorter plunger style, which replaced the first flapper style. Latest ones are long plunger high force type. Not sure what your 6.9-7.3 has, could be either plunger style, both will interchange. The long one can be a challenge when placing cover back on. Best way is to use a ground jumper wire and a hot wire to keep the plunger pulled in, then set the cover straight down. This makes sure stop arm is in front metering valve arm step, to prevent a runaway engine on startup which can happen if cover is installed wrong.

You know Im about 70 and some where in the back of my mind I was remembering on the old ih engines that the trick was to power close the solenoid close before the instlation but thanks for reminding me. You can,t believe how this pump is confined behind a muffler. I could feel the three little cover bolts but not see them. Some body put 24volts to this one I am thinking. Going to be a challenge but guess with your trick I will get it in. Should be able to get the part somewhere local. Thanks

Is this the fuel shut off valve? I had one go bad on my JD 455 and found new ones a lot cheaper and I think they were on ebay. Had to take the electrical plug off the old one and splice it into the new one but it is working fine.

HG This one bolts in with the two lugs that power it holding it in the cover. No plug. I am trying now to figure out what JD tractor this is in. What I am working on is a 644 lull lift with 4 cyl JD. Have two bot made in 1987 with JD engines but one has CAV pump the other JD. Somebody but the batteries in series and shot the solenoid. I have got over 20 injector pumps here but nothing like this.

I don"t know what a "BICRON" is, but if you type "Stanadyne 26214" into GOOGLE you will find MANY MANY sources for the Stanadyne 26214 solenoid!

The solenoid windings themselves are interchangeable. The linkage varies. Early versions had no plunger inside the windings and later ones do. The plunger models seem more prone to getting debris stuck into them and jamming.

The solenoids have no mechanical connection to shut off anything. When turned "on" they force the linkgage to just get out of the way - and a spring pulls the pump's metering valve into "run." So at times solenoids get blames when not the real problem.

Often stuck linkage is the problem. And if the solenoid winding seems shorted it likely just has bad insulator bushings (easy and cheap to fix).

I put a shut-off solenoid winding from a 1982 Chevy truck into a Case 580CK backhoe pump with no problem. Same with a Deere 300B. The Case 188 originally had mechanical shut-off and I converted it to electrtic.

Deere has them in most all of it's tractors with DB or JDB pumps. Also in some DM and DB2 pumps. 1020, 2020, 3020, 4020, 2520, 300, 300B, 400, 500, 350-450-550 crawlers, etc.

Also in 6.2 and early 6.5 GMs, 6.9 and 7.3 IH Fords up to mid 1994, many Oldsmobile 4.3 and 5.7 diesels 70s-80s, etc.

Thanks JD.. Got one ordered . Went to the jd dealer and they had no idea from there to the Ford truck dealership, funny there they said "we do not have injector pump break down drawings" We always replace the pump...LOL . Thanks for the information.
