solenoid bypass DIY?
Is there a solenoid bypass DIY knocking around here somewhere? I cant seem to find one. And if im not mistaken this is needed for jb+ over 75% only.

Be sure to pull straight up on the hoses that connect to the nipples. I was having a hard time and ended up breaking one of the nipples as I pulled from a slight angle. Car has been running fine since I am running with the bypass, but I am going to need to pick up a replacement part before I reset my car back to default solenoid configuration when I it in for service. By the way, does anyone know what the part number for the piece with the nipples is? I've been looking at tischer and actually see 4 when I search for "solenoid".

There are two of those solenoids, I believe you only do this to the left one, correct. And this is really only needed after 75%? |

Correct, you do it to the solenoid on the passenger side of the car. I ran my car at 75% without it with no problems at all. I can't really tell you how much of a difference it makes because I did the bypass at the same time I turned my jb+ to 100%. 100% + bypass is quite a noticeable difference over 75% though.
