Thumbs up Are Vacuum Solenoids Interchangable

Can anyone tell me if the vacuum solenoids on the ratsnest are interchangable and also if the turbo control solonoids are also the same. i have 2 sets of everything but neither is completely good so i would need to use part of both sets to make a good set....

Yes and no. They are all the same, BUT if you look you'll see the filter is moved from one nipple to the other on some (two different configurations). The filter can be repositioned by pulling on it. It'll come off, then reinsall on the nipple it should be on.

In other words you can't swap the Relief solenoid with the EGR solenoid without moving the filter on the solenoid.

Go stare at the solenoids and you'll see what I'm talking about.

The ones w/ the filter are also intechangeble, you just have to remove(carefully!) the filters.
