The carb solenoid really isn't necessary. I have an old kohler on a craftsman. I held the solenoid open with a paper clip. Been working for years.
As far as solenoid preventing backfiring in muffler and dieseling, it's a joke.
I can remove the power to the solenoid on my 20 hp Kohler command and it will keep running at high speed indefinately. If I idle it down and it takes about 3-5 seconds for engine to die.

I turn my engines off by removing power to solenoid and running engine out of gas. This prevents all possibilities of backfiring or dieseling that will occur if you stop engine by killing spark.
