Default Is there a point where you should.......

replace the 'noids to be safe?
I have had my Zex kit for a while now, [2 years].
I am wondering if I need to be concerned about the 'noids wearing out.
How long do they last anyway?
Although they have never missed a beat I know that everything has a certain life expectancy and it would be a bummer if say the fuel 'noid were to up and die during a nitrous run.
Any opinions?

There are a lot of variables that will determine the life of your solenoid. The best thing you could do is just send it in to one of the vendors for a rebuild. It doesnt cost that much and could potentially save your motor

I have tore solenoids apart on cars that were on there for years and they still looked brand new. Since you have a ZEX system I know you do not have a progressive so hard wear and tear should not be a factor here. If the solenoids are still firing good and strong you are probably just fine. I always suggest test firing them from time to time.
