A couple of things here would seriously bother me.
If the garage has made its diagnosis and duly fitted a part that possibly wasn't required, why then did they not go on to complete the job and get your van running properly.
May I assume that the garage charged you for the time and the part?
To be fair you brought them a sick engine and they said that they could repair it.....they didn't and in my book that's "No charge".
If the solenoid wasn't a correct match to the ECU doesn't this suggest that the pump assembly fitted is not the correct type?
Why did the auto-electrician not check the wiring harness using a wiring diagram and a meter if he thought that there maybe a wiring fault.
If the combustion chambers were filling with diesel then I'm not too surprised that the battery was totalled!
None of this is much help to you but I would be going back to the garage for a solution or finding a Citroen repairer who is competent.
