This video will help you understand the process to install the solenoid.





Anyways, hope this will resolve my issue. When I cleaned up the connector area, the idle and everything else felt find until enough oil leaked into the connector and mess up again.
I was just watching that video when I got the notification about your post!

Great minds...

Yea I'll definitely keep an eye on the solenoids. And on a side note, this will be my last boxer engine. Too much pain to do any major work on it!
