2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission fass trade in ????

[Mopar_Tim]

anyone know if the deal with the trading in the old style fass pumps is still good ... ... mine had a hiccup today and i was doing 60 mph with my foot to the floor passing someone and my fuel pressure dropped to zero normally it sits around 13. 5 and only drops . 5 at wot



it came back up right away was only down maybe a second and ... . i cant get it to do it again so i think it may have just been a fluke ... ... but i don't want the pump to crap out when someone else is driving the truck that wont be watching the gauge





it is a 150 gph system and it is the old style

I replaced my old 150 pump about a month ago, they honored the replacement price they offered a while back.

 

[Mopar_Tim]

sounds great, who did you contact to do it? a local place or can i go straight to the manufacture ?

 

[Warpig]

You need to go through a FASS distributer.

 

[Mopar_Tim]

ok sounds like a plan, is there a good one i can go online and possibly just order and do it myself



i thought there was a member here that was a fass distributer ? or and i thinking wrong? i could be way off

 

[JRunkal]

was there a recall on certain fass systems? how do i find out if mine is a bad one?

 

[Warpig]

No recall, they just upgraded the original wire harness and pump. The old pump had servicable brushes that needed cleaning or replacement. The upgrade campaign is for the folks who bought the original pump. A lot of TDR vendors are FASS distributers.

While on the subject of FASS, I'm thinking of upgrading from my 150 gph FASS, to the 200 gph pump, so I can continue my fueling obsession. I've heard they're unbearably noisy, anyone know?

Unless you are needing high pressure (25+ PSI) you do not need the 200 GPH.





The motor update price is still good:



$175. 00 FASS

$195. 00 HPFP



Comes with a 4 year registerable wnty



Check TDR first for FASS dealers but you can also find a local on our web site:

high pressure fuel pump ????

 

[BeefDoc]

I have 95GPH FASS system on my truck that I bought in Aug. 2005 and installed myself. Is this a pump that I should be looking at replacing?? It still has 12-13PSI @ WOT. I have not had any issues with the pump as of yet. How often should the in line strainer (between the tank and the pump) be replaced?? I have had the truck gelled up twice in the past 2 years, but have not changed the strainer. Is it just a standard 3/8in strainer?? Thanks

HPFP stands for High Performance Fuel Pump (I think Brad gets a dollar for every acronym he uses! :-laf) Its the pump with no filters.

The Strainer can be back flushed with some gas or other solvent. Fill it up, plug both ports, and shake up. Then release the inlet side onto a clean paper towel. Repeat until it comes out clean. OR if you wish to get a new one, NAPA #3270 or WIX# 33270.



No need to update the pump if its running fine.

FASS fuel system - fuel air separator system



These guys are great to deal with and ship fast. They have free shipping on FASS units.

 

[LowFly]

I have a limited number of dealers that carry thoes RP's on shelf. But we work with them that we can get on in the mail the same day if they call me soon enough. I have a dealer locator on my web site to find a VIP dealer that is local to you. OR i know a few dealers that have the RP's on shelf that can get one out to you.



Let me know.

Not that important. (Those specs are for our assembly and folks that JUST have to have them when working on the pump) That is not a critical junction on the pump as there is PLENTY of beef there. I would just get them snug and go about a 1/8-1/4 more.
