I removed the OEM filter can. It was easy to remove and I figured I might need to shove something down there at some point anyway.

I just got the Airdog 150 yesterday. I figured that my "wild hairs" would make me want lotsa ponies within a year or two. The draw straw was the biggest pain. The instructions are not very helpful because in all honesty, they can't really get ALL the fuel tank designs and play with them to...

I too am having lift pump issues. I like the fact that the Walbro/Airtex seems to be a much better pump design(gearotor) than the Carter. I'm not looking to bomb my truck too much. I might get better injectors later this year but I don't tow anything. It's just a daily driver. I would love to...

If you thought Cummins was powerful, wait till you see this monster! The Most Powerful Diesel Engine in the World

I'm installing a Holley Blue LP this weekend and was wondering if the relay everyone is using is the universal fuel pump relay from NAPA or something like it.

Well it's done. I installed the new pump and everything pretty much went as the videos said they would. There is one small note to add. The new pump had an oil of some sort in it for storage I guess. When I took off the caps and rotated the new pump for the installation, I got oil on the truck...

I was using PS Diesel Kleen for the longest time. I haven't bombed my truck and I don't tow anything and hardly ever haul stuff. This truck is a daily driver for me even though it's a dually. That may be the main reason it's lasted so long. VP44 life seems to vary with application. Tomorrow...

It is now habit for me to shift into certain gears BEFORE I try the gear I really want, especially when it's cold. 3rd and 4th seem to be the easiest. Then I try to cycle through them to 5th to finally get to reverse. It's a pain, especially in a parking lot when people are waiting on you, but...

Thanks for the tip! I was wondering about that because I read the same thing in the instructions on the MWFI site. I was also wondering about that sensor. Is it the CAM position sensor or the crankshaft position sensor? I remembering reading about both of them on my year model truck.

This page helped me determine I need a new pump. If you scroll to the bottom, it can help you with the codes. Mine threw the 1688 and this page says that a 1688 ALWAYS means bad VP. My new VP is on the way. Good luck with your troubleshooting.

I ordered the VP44 from mwfi. I guess I can start taking out the old VP44 and then wait till the new one arrives. I watched these videos so I think I can handle it. My only problem will be the cold weather. As far as codes are concerned, MWFI's site says . I'm content with this because of...

Sorry for the slow reply. My internet at home is down. I don't tow anything and I hardly ever haul stuff so I can understand how I've gotten away with the original for so long. I do have fuel pressure after the filter. It's about 8. 5 psi. But when I step on the peddle, the poor truck just wants...

Well, it finally happened to me I believe. I was driving down the road in McKinney and the dash lights came on. I immediately put it in neutral and tried to restart but it wouldn't. I coasted into a supermarket parking lot and MAN was that a hard steer with no power. I finally stopped and tried...

What do you mean you "tapped" the pump wire? Do you mean with the Edge Comp on the IP or the LP?
