Default Solenoid

Can anyone tell me if there is someone that can rebuild Fuel and Gas Solenoids? I have some from Jetcat that are sticking and also a couple from a RAM that the nipples broke off. Just didn't know if you could possibly get them rebuilt cheaper than buying new ones.

Thanks
Doug

Hi Doug,
I remember an old jetcat notice that advised to blow a little wd 40 in, once a year to prevent them sticking, especially the propane valve gets very dry.

You can push the two very small roll pins out of the valve; this allows the valve to come apart and expose the small spring and plunger. You can do anything you need to from there...

Hope this helps,

Jeff
