The fuel pressure solenoid is attached to the rear of the fuel rail. The tip of the fuel pressure solenoid uses a knife edge, for metal to metal sealing. The knife edge actually deforms the metal in the fuel rail in order to seal the surfaces. The solenoid must be replaced when ever it is removed from the rail. The solenoid controls and maintains the rail pressure constant along with a control current transmitted by the engine control module (ECM). See Fig 1.
