HELP! Which fuel solenoid for a 2014 MS261CM

[greg_bbs]

Good evening, I’m trying to figure out which fuel solenoid to order for a 2014 MS261CM. I believe it’s a version 1 or 2. It currently has the black solenoid and the 1141 4700 (1535) module/coil.

Do I need the white or green solenoid?

If it’s the white solenoid, I’m aware of the white solenoid/fuel filter kit #1140 007 1802.
Thank you

They say the green one is universal and the early 261 shouldn’t use the white. For awhile all I could get was white. They worked fine though

Is there a kit for the green solenoid and orange fuel filter? My 2 closest dealers leave a lot to be desired for information! I have to tell them the part numbers I want.

Have you had a chance to use the green ones in the early MS261CM?
If yes, do they perform and last as well as the white ones?

I’ve never used the green one and I don’t know if they are available with the kit

Am I mistaken in believing the white is the proper replacement?

A 2014 came with a black solenoid. There’s literature suggesting that green should be used as a replacement and not white. But several guys here have found that the white works fine when the green wasn’t readily available.

I happen to be doing some routine cleaning on my 2019 261. Here’s a pick of the stock solenoid
