Turbo Precontrol and Wastegate Control solenoid
 

I guess i screwed up again while working on my car. I was trying to change my hoses that goes into the wastegate control and turbo precontrol solenoid and i broke off all the damn nipples.
Anyone know if i have to buy both the solenoids or is there a way that i can just replace the plastic nipple?
Anyone selling theirs for a good price??

smooth it off and super glue on some metal nipples

That really sucks! I know, for I have done it myself.

Mazda quoted me $130 for the pair (Wastegate and Pre-Control), but I made a post in the wanted/for sale section and a few people who did the non-seq conversion offered to sell me their just the Pre-Control solenoid, which is what I needed. Don't_Be_A_Rikki sold me his for $25. I gave him an extra $10 to pay for shipping. He Saturday overnighted me the part, which costed him $17 and he also put on some silicone hoses and wrapped it in a polishing cloth. You might try just PM'ing him, as he does non-seq conversions where he works. He is great to do business with.

Yep, this works well. I use 5 minute epoxy and have no issues. (Just don't get any inside or it will no-workie)

Damn you aren't suppose to use hammers to take those hoses off!

Garfinkle has repaired several with small threaded brass nipples , I think they came from Nashville Rubber and Gasket co. . The stock tubing size was retained.

They are only sold as one unit. (you can not buy just one or the other).
It cost me 147.54 Its part number N3A1-20-285 part discription is valve, duty.
Hey, atleast if you buy a new one then you will be able to rest knowing that you will not have a boost leak coming from the solenoids

$150 ??!! :eek:

Anyone have one for sale??
150 is too damn crazy for those two solenoids.
Buying a new one would be nice but i dont feel like those solenoids are prone to any leaks. Most of the time, its the vacuum hoses that leaks.

Yea, I super glued mine...you gotta love that moment of panic when it snaps off...:D

to all who are selling their Turbo Precon. and wastegate control solenoid, how does $60 shipped sound? I need one as i have broken all the nipples.

oh, what is 5 minute epoxy?

Go to Lowe's, Home Depot, Wal Mart and go to the glue section. 5-minute epoxy is usually sold there. The easiest stuff to use comes in a syringe that has two cylinders. You'll know it when you see it. If you use it be sure to mix the two parts thoroughly.

I have 2 of them for sale, both work fine. PM me with an offer

Yeah, it feels like every neuron in your brain fired at the same time and you can feel your scalp fizzling from the heat. I just went ahead and ripped off the other one out of principle.

ahe decided to fix his, good luck man!!

stupid solenoids...think we've all been there...me just two days ago...:(

what size nipples should i get??

the metal nipple that is

CALL Garfinkle in Murfreesboro Tn. and see if he has 1 or 2 he may send to you. he had several at one time.

This should have been the title of your thread...

heh heh heh

i'll keep that in mind next time.
