I'm finally getting my generator project wrapped up.

I'm looking for ways for unattended shutdown in case of low oil pressure
conditions. What would be the easiest and cheapest way to accomplish this?

Either by shutting off the air or fuel supply? I'm sure you could use some
kind of "fuel line solenoid" to cut off the supply of fuel. Any ideas?

Thanks

I have taken the access cover off the area that was hiding the speed
control, (didn't know that it was a access cover!), anyhow, It
seems to be a simple looking lever that doesn't move that much. Perhaps a
1/4" of so. I'm sure a solenoid could be used to control the engine speed
and do a SHUTDOWN! when needed.

There doesn't appear to be a return spring of any sorts.

I've uploaded a few pictures of the speed control mechanism to

Any tips, comments?
