Are you certain the fuel shuff off solenoid is faulty

if its the original solonoid from factory there fitted with bolts that shear when they were tightend so its nearly imposable to remove without taking the pump out .if its had a after market solenoid fitted these are fitted with cap head bolts and it can be taken off in the car its a $#*t of a job to do . a new solonoid if about $340.00

it is the solenoid , my mate who does truck repairs was out and located the problem, when he tapped the solenoid it openened up and fuel began to flow...it buzzed a bit at first , now it clicks straight away.. it's going ok for now ,but will have to get it replaced.. or can you maually keep it open?

u have to remove it to manually keep it open because u would have to remove the plunger and then put it back in so you are better off just replacing it any way
