alky compatible fuel solenoid
Looking for 12v fuel solenoid that will work with alky. Just need for primer system so it closes once pump is off to keep enhine from pulling fuel. Nitrous solenoid is easy just alky ones are more expensive than would like, isn't everything.

Anyone have alternative?

I just used a gas solenoid from an old nos kit.
I’d imagine a 12v water solenoid make work also.

Thinking about giving a try. I have 3 or 4 laying around. Wondering how long they live with alky before seals are bad?

Dave,

I looked at your air noids, but I am trying to do a way with using both air and electrical. I do like that yours are one piece deal.I have to solenoids now one controls the air to the other. Yours will mean less plumbing and less weight.

Air or electric. They both work BUT must have a teflon plunger for alky to work.
