Plain-English summary

Peter Paul Electronics Co., Inc. is recalling certain nitrous oxide solenoid valves manufactured between May 5, 2015, and July 24, 2015. The affected components include various part numbers such as 22X01421GM 12/DC and 70-1010. These valves were distributed to manufacturers for use in nitrous oxide fuel systems.
