that part number is wrong. are you talking about the two solenoids mounted on the firewall? thoe are the relief solenoid valve and the switching solenoid valve. they are no longer available but you can buy them used from someone on the forum. or are you talking about the vacuum solenoid valve and the vent solenoid valve located on the rats nest on the left side of the engine?

The vacuum solenoid and the vent solenoid valves are the 2 I need. I got the part number from a diagram that I found. They are the ones in the rat nest. These are the last parts I need to get this RX back on the road. Thanks BR
