CASE 2016 Farmall 50A - Starter turns over; brief start then dies. Fixed.

Mentioned this in a couple earlier posts about trying to find a decent digital Repair Manual for this tractor. For those experiencing a similar problem, I ultimately found a bad 'Engine Shutoff' relay located at the very front/left (above the battery) in the engine bay. BTW, does anyone know what the component with 2 wires located on the forward end of the Injector Pump is? Was looking for the 'Fuel Shut Off' Solenoid to test prior to discovering the bad Relay, but there are no identifying numbers or anything since CASE likes to paint almost everything on the engine black. I pulled this component (just 2 Torx head screws but not easy without pulling the Alternator . . .) but all I could see was a micro-mesh screen of sorts (a little dirty so I cleaned it) which may or may not have actually been the Fuel Shut Off solenoid I was searching for but I couldn't see beyond the screen so still don't know what it is.)

My guess if the fuel shutoff is electric. Had a similar thing on a TYM of a neighbors....I looked high and low for the fuel shutoff and discovered the two wires going to the injector pump.
