CAT DP25N Forklift Fuel Pump Solenoid Valve

[Cheneyjawa]

I’ve got a CAT forklift and it barely starts, it doesn’t tick over as such, it’s like it’s running on one cylinder (it’s not)

I'm suspecting the Fuel Pump Solenoid Valve as it looks like someone’s had a go at it before.

My question is, is this valve either on or off, working or not working?

It is ‘working‘ as when you pull the wire off the top Of the valve the engine stops.

But can it be a case if it’s barely opening and not letting enough fuel through it’s causing my problem?

cheers....

If you take out the plunger from under the stop solenoid it should run (May have trouble stopping it though)

some of those solenoids have two windings and two positions .... may have a winding banjzaxed

Thanks V8, i ended up taking the plunger out and putting the solenoid back in, there was no difference so i'm suspecting the pump, it's out & gone off to be looked at
