Default New Solenoids?

Hey guys I'm getting ready to hook my TNT F1 kit back up after I blew my motor, which I think was caused by a bad solenoid. My question is should I rebuild the TNT solenoids or buy new ones? I was looking around at NX and cold fusion both seem good but cold fusion has a lifetime warranty on theres what do would you guys do? Thanks for the help

Depends on what you are going to rebuild on the solenoid. If you re do the coil and the piston you'll be around $80, give or take. For a few dollars more you can get a new 3 port solenoid with a lifetime warranty on it:

I'd talk to TNT about yours. My next choice would be Nitrous Direct for some
Cold Fusion solenoids.

Yeah I'm pretty sure the first pass it was dumping black smoke out of the pipes so I thought the nitrous solenoid wasn't opening. Cleaned and removed the debris (very small amount) from the filter inside the 'noid and made next pass didnt even get passed the 60' before white smoke started to pour out and the motor shut down. Number 8 piston was totally destroyed only the wristpin was in the bore still and it put a hole in the bottom of the block in the number eight bore right above the oil pan. Thats why I'm thinking I need to rebuild them what do you guys think?

I would contact David Or Sam at TNT. They have a good quality solenoid.. Send it to them for rebuild and checked.There is no sence in tying up the money in a new set of solenoids.
