Fuel Solenoid Failure??

Just curious how big of a possibility this is?

Currently having TMS build me a shortblock, and got with Nitrous Outlet to put together a system. I just got to thinking the other night, if the NO2 solenoid fired, and the Fuel Solenoid failed, even on a small shot < 100, motor would be gone... I would be soldering all connections, but what if the solenoid just simply failed? Is there any safety for this? It seems like there's a safety for everything else on a nitrous system...

You could definitely hurt some parts. Most of the newer nitrous controllers have wideband O2 inputs to monitor AFR in the even that something like that happens, but that isn't full proof.

Crap, I just realized I clicked on the wrong section, can a mod move it over to the nitrous section? Thanks.

In the time I've been at nitrous outlet I think we might have warrantied one fuel solenoid and it did not fail, it just leaked. Hopefully that gives you some confidence.
