D Dodge Well-known member Nov 21, 2016 #2 Interesting question. Soleonoids usually work only in one direction, a Mitchell needs to go two directions. Lets see what others think.

whizzernick Well-known member Nov 21, 2016 #5 I used electric door openers. One to pull in each direction. I found I had to give slack as the electric magnet has more pull after it gets going. I used selonids for power to openers (big wire) and small wire to change gear. Works good
