ipr question
hi
looking at my hpop before puting in new seals, i happen to notice that the ipr solenoid, the electrical connector part seems loose..meaning it moves a little bit back and forth sideways.
is this normal ?

hi
hmm..confused.
the plastic piece visible from above, has some movement inside the slot in the barrell.
even if the nut is uber tight....there is still some wiggle between the black connector housing and the barrel/bronze coil.

IT IS NORMAL. I dont know how much clearer you want it haha. The connector will always have some play. Even when new. The play in the connector and the nut are not related.

I have mine in my hand right this very moment. The way it's made is the coil is incerted into the sleeve, the sleeve is pressed by a machine to roll over the edge to hold the coil in the sleeve. It has very little movement, but it's not glued in the sleeve....
If the nut isn't tight enough it could vibrate loose and then the coil.. do what it wants.
5 to 10 lbs should be a good snugness.

'Pay attention once in a while.' Seriously dude?
The connector in the solenoid is what he is asking about. That will move no matter what. He is not talking about the solenoid moving on the IPR shaft, or the nut moving, just the connector.
