Are you sure on this? Most nitrous solenoids are rated for the 1100+psi, not sure the fuel solenoids are rated the same psi. I think one of the vendors should answer this to be safe.

No you can not use a fuel solenoid as a purge kit........Airwolf is correct they are made completely different than a nitrous solenoid.

youll almost certainly blow some pieces of that fuel solenoid apart.... maybe through the hood or your body.
