Purge Solenoid

Can I use a fuel solenoid as a purge solenoid?? I have a spare one laying around and would like to just use it if I could.

No you can not, it won't open up under that much pressure.

No but you can use a nitrous solenoid as a purge.

How about using a purge solenoid for your main nitrous?

The fittings can be changed.

Yes that will work, just change the fittings and put some jets in.
