One might convert a normal eTDI to mTDI, turning into a classic "1-wire diesel", for reliability/durability reasons. (Cue EMP/zombie apocalypse/BOV jokes in 3, 2, 1...)
Suppose one wanted to take it a step further and make it a zero-wire, replacing the normally-shut/open-with-12V fuel cut solenoid with a two-way type that took +12V to open, stayed there without further power, and needed -12V to shut again? Presumably it would have finger-powered backup functionality. Some older engines - OM617 and Peugeot XD1, among I'm sure many others - worked like this, sometimes with vacuum-powered shutdown solenoids. I've never seen a VE-type pump that worked this way, and I don't know quite the correct terms to search for, hence the post.
Has anyone converted an MTDI pump to work like this?
