How to change td42 fuel cut solenoid?
Posted: Thu Jul 13, 2017 6:55 pm
My mates safari needs the fuel cut solenoid changed. It cut out and I found it had blown the fuse to the fuel cut. It was a 5amp fuse rather than the 10 it was meant to have (fuses were all recently changed as a precaution after drowning it so hadn't been a 5 for long)
I changed the fuse and got power again but no fuel. Apparently they are known to fail?
I have traced down a new one which should turn up tomorrow. The manual suggests it's hard to change? Says to take it to a mechanic.
My question is do they just wind out like a Toyota one or is there more too it? I plan to change it on the weekend. I thought it was pretty straight forward...
Cheers,
Pete
