Many two wire fuel shut off solenoids are energized to CLOSE. Make sure you know how yours operates.

Three wire solenoids are often energized to OPEN. One winding to draw in, a second winding to hold .

Good comment. This is a two wire connector. It is energized with the ignition switch and a click sounds as to energize the solenoid to open allowing the engine fuel and to run. Turning the switch to off stops the motor. I do not know the important answer to the comment.

Do you have a question? Does your tractor have a problem with the operation of this solenoid?

and some of them have two coils, one to pull the solenoid in, the other to hold, but are self-grounding (through the body). ;)
