If its not marked for INLET on one side try turning it around. Pintle may have trouble opening or closing if the pressure is on the wrong side.

A NC solenoid is a NC solenoid. It Doesnt know if its air, fuel or sewage going through it. I bet you have it plumbed in backwards. If it has some indication of flow or an IN-Out thats the way you have to have the air going.

I called the company and they told me which was in and out because it wasn't marked. I'll try it the other way just to see..
