yeah, just unscrew the solenoid from the carburetor and take out the 'pin' in the middle. Then re-install the solenoid. Start engine to see if all is well
It will no longer 'cut' the engine immediately when you turn the key off, but otherwise the engine will run well with this pin removed. The downside of removing this pin is that the engine may want to "run on" after you turn the key off. If this happens you can let the clutch out to stop the engine (keep your foot on the brake!)
The best way to fit a new-style carbie on an older car is to wire up the solenoid wire to the hot side of the ballast resistor. Then the solenoid works as designed
