I have a FD and my double throttle solenoid broke today whilst changing vacuum lines. Here it is.


I can possibly pick it up as well.....depending where you are at........cash in hand.

I'll dig around when I get home tonight and see if I have a good one for ya. These dumb things are so fragile. If I don't have one but someone else in the springs does, I make the trip to Arvada frequently and can deliver that far.

Thanks!
Yeah, I developed a razor blade cutting technique, soon after, so I didn't break the others lol......
There is a guy in Boulder that might have one. I will keep you in the loop!

I might have one in my shed but I'm not home to look for it. Someone can look for it if they want, but it's kinda hazardous in there...beware of falling parts lol.

That would be great.....but by the time I got there and found the shed, it would be dark and prolly 10x dangerous.....lol

Yeah probably haha. Actually I meant one of the CS guys could look through there if they can't find one of their own and see if they can find it in my shed and then it could make it's way up to you.

That is what I figured. There is a guy(who is at work, I presume) who is here in Boulder. If he falls through, I will keep in touch.

Telluride. I'll look tonight. I have many of these solenoids but a lot of them are busted in one way or another. I'll check though and let you know.

I quickly found this one floating on top of my mess:
I'm pretty sure they're interchangeable.

That one is broken too. There should be a third nipple/hose.
Check my attachment.

Same reason I've kept my broken ones and ALL my broken parts...because you say to yourself "someday, I will fix this and it will be brand new!" lol. Actually I'm just sentimental and I've kept most of my original parts, whether they're broken or not.

I appreciate everyone looking! I found one in Longmont off a series 5 N/A. Met a cool FC owner, as well. Also, do I need to replace the upper intake manifold gasket? It is metal, but there seems to be a Divided group of replacing it or not.
