Fixing a fuel shut off solenoid.
Figured out how to fix a fuel shut off solenoid with some pics a link confirming this and of course Josh pointing out the link to me! I'll post pics as soon as I can, tweaking right now and will post pics ASAP. I basically tore off and drilled out the stock rubber on the "stopper" and "plunger", so, I also tapped it for a screw and put a modified valve cover grommet in and will have to remodify one so it will fit better, like I stated pics will follow so all can save anywhere from $80 to $120 and reuse their Bosch one. :rock:

There are plenty of $10 FSS available from many VW TDI parts houses that work just fine.
Personally, I've had very good, reliable results with simply sanding down the original plunger tip. :pca1: |
Mine had too big a chunk missing to do that with unfortunately, I tried that first. LOL

Brandon, BC847 is the one who made that link on dtr.

I had a friend machine me an all metal one. It worked in my old pump but I have a new II pump and I'm not opening it up until after the warranty is up.

OK?
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- The link is a first option, what's the big deal? |

If you really want to fix it just get bigger injectors, and then you won't have back pressure from little stock injectors blowing your plunger. Just a thought.

That's in the plans, LOL!
