ABSTRACT:
An engine has a carburetor that includes a bowl for fuel, a venturi in which the fuel is mixed with air, and a tube for carrying fuel from the bowl to the venturi. A solenoid valve is connected to the tube to control the flow of fuel to the venturi. An engine ignition system includes a coil assembly in which electricity is generated by a permanent magnet driven by the engine passing hear the coil assembly. A transformer includes a primary winding connected to the coil assembly, and a secondary winding. A storage capacitor and a diode are coupled in series across the secondary winding and a switch couples the solenoid valve to said storage capacitor. When an operator desires to stop the engine, the switch is closed which applies electricity from the capacitor to the solenoid valve to reduce an amount of fuel flowing through the tube.
