Is better to mount the solenoid closest to the motor or to the reservoir in a boot mount?

Logic tells me in doesn't really matter. However if I did park on a slope I'd still get the fluid out of the hose between the solenoid and the nozzle jet gravity feed into the motor.

If I mounted it close to the nozzle jet then this would not occur, but there could be a latency between feed and supply for normal use as the flow travels along the hose length.

Danny, mine is mounted 20-30cm from the nozzle in the intake piping. the pump and tank are mounted in the boot.

The pump should have no issues moving the fluid that last 20-30cm @ 150psi (the fluid in the line up to the solenoid isn't going to be going anywhere so that only needs to be pressurized)

Steven, I thought that but just wanted it confirmed by someone that knows or has done the same, thanks mate.

Almost there, just have to wait for an alloy mounting plate for the bottle [being made up], then I reckon I'll get the bottle plastic welded with a new filler neck to come out the side.
