Default Changed Solenoid now No Power

Changed Solenoid now No Power on 1997 / ides fine / very weak pickup when accelerating / it appears the solenoid is picking all the way up / measured 2 7/8 roughly from pin to bottom of mounting bracket. I have pink eye so bad I can hardly see how to work on it. What should I look for?

Thanks

Why was the solenoid changed? Did it not pull all the way, or at all?

did this part come from ebay china. my son bought one for his 96 and it wasnt worth 13 cents. i keep telling him to fix his shut down cable. you dont have to see if its going all the way, you can feel if it is back all the way

you can take it back off and work the shut off by hand to open up all the way.

Check your OFV, do you have a fuel pressure guage ? Clamp off the return line from the IP if that helps it's the OFV.
