BOOST SOLENOID (AGAIN)

[marky.t.s]

Hi folks,sorry to bring this up again,but i have done a search,and as i'm not one of the oily fingernail brigade,it's all very useful if i actualy new where and what it looks like. I've had a bit of a stuttery engine when coming on boost,only very slightly but you can notice it more under hard acceleration.Having read some prev. threads i thought i'd clean this out first.So if anyone can give me a good description of /location of i would be v. grateful.I believe it is on drivers side inner wing,but so are a lot of bits and pieces,lol.BTW it's a 00MY uk turbo.

cheers,

Mark.

Here's where mine is located, yours should be here as well, the blue box shaped thing to the right of the arrow is my alarm.It's easier to remove it( 2x's 10mm nuts) for getting the carb cleaner skooshed in. Hope this solves the mystery.

Is there a cover over the solenoid on some cars? as i was looking for mine the other day and thought it was under the cover.

[marky.t.s]

it looks like a small aluminium cylinder about 2 inches long by 1 inch dia. Has 2 small pipes going in at the bottom.No cover on my car mate.Couldn't tell you about other M/Ys though.

cheers,

Mark.
