I'm inclined to think solenoid valve too at this point..

Dumb question....is the soleniod plugged in.....sorry had to ask

found the problem!

the needle valve and the solenoid were both clogged up, got them all apart now and cleaning them.

If they are plugged up it sounds like they might have had water back up into them. Use should have a check valve between the solenoid and reactor I use two cause I haven't found them to be 100% reliable.

Try immersing the needle valve and valve part of the soleniod with a vinegar soln. Whadda you got to lose
