leaking fuel solenoid...help!!!

Trying to get my nx kit up and running and motor started to run rich and you could smell gas.....well, even when my fuel solenoid has no power on it, it continuously is leaking fuel through shark nozzle.......as long as there is fuel pressure it keeps leaking......Is there something like new o-rings or seals for solenoid, or do I have to get a new one??? Thanks to anyone who responds!!!!!

Sounds like some debris/dirt got in the solenoid. You should send it back to NX to have the solenoid rebuilt. Should be cheaper than a new one too. Compucar did mine under warranty for only $10.

i ahve the same problem. i sent my 'noid back to NX to get it rebuilt (they charged for shipping to and COD from). i put it back in and it still leaked. if i were you, i would send it back, and if that does not fix it buy a new one.

Yes, they will still fix it, as the noids have a lifetime warranty regardless of owner (I got one fixed free that I bought from another person).
