240K on my truck and it is on its 3rd lift pump, the original Cummins ISB lift pumps by Carter. If you want to pay too much for a lift pump go ahead, but you may be better off just monitoring your fuel pressure and replacing OE pumps when they go bad, and 100k on a lift pump isn't too bad for a...

240K on my original VP44 and still counting, no problems yet. monitor supply pressure from the lift pump and run a good fuel lubrication additive, you should not have problems. before you buy any 24 valve, take it home or to a diesel mech. and see if the lift pump is still alive. if there is no...

when/if a 53 block cracks, it happens just under the exhaust manifold running back to front, and they leak externally.

how much fuel is leaking? and is it a steady stream or does it pulse with injection cycles? you could have a cracked inj. line. if it is not an inj. line, I have seen the banjo fittings on the feed and return lines leak and sometimes do not want to seal back up, especially if you have...

If you are going to use the grease gun hose as a remote mount option, be sure to bleed all the air out of it. loosen the fitting and run the pump until fuel squirts out continuous, then tighten the fitting with the pump still running to prevent any bleed-back. the air in the line will affect...

checked with Chrysler, they want 80-90 smackers to do a simple flash update... .

If FASS runs the fuel through the pump before the filters they may have installed that prescreen to keep paticles large enough to harm the pump out of the mix, so you may void your FASS warranty with it removed.

well harvey may like the oil of his snake, but in the summer (Michigans U. P. ) I use a liberal glug or two in each tank of the cheapest TCW-3 outboard motor 2-stroke oil I can find... . be sure it is low ash, or your fuel filter will plug up in no time flat. I do this to combat the lower...

normally, people w/o a gauge installed will never know that the transfer pump has died in its sleep unless they normally call for large amounts of power and will notice a power loss, or notice a slightly longer crank during start up. The VP44 will run (for a while) without ample supply pressure...

98. 5 w/ auto trans. when setting cruise control, after hitting "set" button on steering wheel, the speed starts to climb. It may or may not come back down to the initial set speed. If I hit "set", then "coast" 3 or 4 times it will drop back down, then I can use the cruise buttons to...
