I couldn't figure out how to add text to the pic so here it is. While we are one this subject, This is the other valve bank on the machine. It looks like the same style valve as the other valve bank that is FPS. Is that correct? or are they something else? Thanks again, Jim

From my inexperienced eye those are also FPS valves. This is is Racine valve which you will see called "Bang-Bang" valves as they are not proportional in operation being either open, or closed.

Yes, this is the Racine valve that I have for Hi Drive, which led me to believe it was a Racine system. That is what the wrong manual will get ya. I think I have this system figured out now. If it ever warms up, I'll finish it.

I lucked out with the coil. I removed the grommet around the terminal, dug a little deeper and found the broken wire, soldered it back. Put a bolt that fit in the coil and applied voltage. It held the bolt in place till the voltage was removed. Now just needs to warm outside to finish.
I want to thank "OFF" and "1693TA" for all the time you spent with me figuring this out. The help was much appreciated. Jim,
