Solenoid Bracket

[Jim Ellis]

Does anyone know the part number for the idle solenoid, solenoid bracket, and
solenoid wire assy for a 69 350 300H.P. auto with A/C car. Has anyone had any
experience trying to find these parts?

Jim,

Try Piper's Corvettes in Vermillion, Illinois, they have a pretty large selection of New Old Stock parts in their inventory.

I'm not 100% sure that 1969 with base engine, C-60, and M-40 originally used an idle control solenoid. It's possible they did, though. If they did, these are the part numbers for the pieces:

solenoid-----GM #1114418 (PRODUCTION); GM #1114421 (SERVICE)

bracket (upper)----GM #3940915

clamp (lower)------GM #3940917

All of the above are GM-discontinued. However, the solenoid is easily available either NOS (lots of these around) or an identical aftermarket piece (save for GM part numbers) is available as manufactured by Standard Auto Parts.

The bracket and clamp are not reproduced, as far as I know. However, the same bracket and clamp were used on many other Chevrolets with Q-Jets of the 69-70 period. There must be a lot of these still out there.

Good luck!

If you find one and they have a second, let me know! I was looking for that bracket for several years and could never find one. I wonder if it only came on the C60 equipped 350/350 as I have checked many 255 and 300 HP pass cars and not found one yet.
