Default Fuel Solenoid and Electrical gauge
Can a fuel solenoid be used as a nitrous solenoid? How are they different?

Thanks

No you cannot use a fuel solenoid as a nitrous solenoid. The plungers are different materials and the coils are rated for their respective substance pressure.

You'll also need a sending unit, an inline adapter fitting if you're not installing the sending unit into a pre-existing orifice and you'll need wire to connect them.

No it needs to be compatible with your gauge. What gauge did you buy?

You need to get an autometer pressure transducer to go with the gauge you have.
