This may have been asked before, forgive me.

Has anyone ever upgraded their manual fuel shut off cable to an electric solenoid switch activated fuel shut off?

My shutoff cable is about done for, and I would like to have switch flip-ability instead of a cable.

Especially since I want to relocate my panel up to the gunwale (?) and off the cockpit floor. I am not sure the shut off cable would be able to make the bend.

Any input would be great, I can engineer something myself, but there is no use re-inventing the wheel when you don't have to.

Thanks again.

The current Yanmar 3YM series use an electric stop solenoid and panel switch. Might be adaptable, but undoubtedly expensive.
