i might have one, let me look. take your time on the rest of them. i had to heat the hose up with a lighter, then use an exacto knife to cut it off. put a WTB post in the for sale section.

Yes there should be tons of people with left over solenoids, most looking to get rid of them for cheap. Do as brads suggested and place a wanted ad in the parts for sale section.

I used a new, hand sharpened set of dikes to nibble away at my hoses ... didn't brake one solonoid.

The heat then cut idea sounds great as well.

I wanted to know that the solonoids were new, so I purchased them from:

$$$$$

I didn't buy the two solenoids that you are talking about ... I bought the CRV and TCA (pressure) solenoids. The TCA was $44 ... the CRV was similar.

Hey, I broke the same solenoids including the double throttle solenoid...Lots of folks on here who have gone single or non-seq and are looking to get rid of their old solenoids...Post a WTB: in the classified section and I am sure you will get lots of replies...

I bought the two you want from a forum member for 75 shipped. Do they work? I don't know, my car is still in pieces...

You will probably find some good info in this thread

Hose Job: Broke Some Stuff

https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...oke+Some+Stuff

You know, I would probably tell you to have your UIM and TB polished while they are off but you can start to incur cost pretty quick...something you should do is change your plugs and wires..

Good luck dude!

This is how story goes I was changing plug wires and found one broken check valve.. So I just decide to do all the VAC hose job.. when i took out the manifold i broke 2 solenoids nip cuz hoses were so damn dried..

I can use check valves from Pep boys or auto zone?
or just get OEM mazda one?

I've used the check valves from Napa for several years and never had a problem. But I've always wondered about their smaller nippler if it affects anything..... I have perfect boost all across the band, so I would think it doesnt, but I got the PFC

I use to just splice the rubber hoses at the nipple with an xacto knife. I never broke a nipple.
