Can you tell me if this will work on our VE pump and is it a good price?

Would there be any advantage of grinding a custom cam plate with a different profile?

I have seen several posts over the years that refer to a VW shut off solenoid and the fact that they will work on our VEs. It looks like it's the same as ours - the only way to be sure would be to purchase one and compare it.

The VW fuel cut-off solenoid will work with our mess. Been there, done that.

And they're usually much less expensive.

 

Thank You for the link. It looks exactly the same as the one in our pumps.

 

I like the 3 sided tool. It should work.

 

Yah, if you like paying 9 bucks plus shipping for a 1/2" nut that has been ground out.

 

I have a VW shut off solinoid in my truck and I believe that it's the same application that you linked to, mine was $10 too.

 

Not sure if those are Bosch but I run a VW Bosch unit that was similar in price.

 

yes and yes. Ive got one in my latest pump and ive the the 3 sided socket in the tool box.

 

what do you use the three sided socket for?

 

yea they work, same thing

 

bradshaw, my guess would be the funny three sided nut in the pics, looks like they made a hex ino three sides dominant to give the snap on guys something to sell ya.
