Carterpillar D343

[garrobito]

..A neighbor have an old Bertram with a couple D343 on his boat.
He is refitting all system and change starter and alternator from 32V to 24V.
But he find a problem because cannot figure out how's run the stop circuit.
I quest should have any kind of actuator who decompress the engine.
Anybody know where are located that actuator?? I'm right or carterpillar use a different system to stop engine??
Or better.. anybody know how's stop a D343??
Thanks you in advance...

Almost no one uses a decompression system to stop an engine such as the Cat 343.

Look for an electric stop solenoid controlling the fuel rack on the injection pump or governor.

As DougR said, there is a solenoid inside the IP housing that actuates a lever that rotates a shaft that pulls out the rack.
