    aftermarket lift pump gph versus CP3 gph

    My day job involves working with hydraulic fluids and filtration for a major OEM. I work with filter and fluid manufacturers frequently and get involved with a lot of troubleshooting. Engine oil, fuel, and hydraulic filters typically use the same standard for specifying the filtration...

    aftermarket lift pump gph versus CP3 gph

    The pump is very quiet - I really don't notice an increase in noise. It is pushing through 3 filters, a Fleetguard FS19732 (Mopar Severe Duty Kit), Baldwin PF7977, and a Cat 1R0750 with the pressures I listed. They offered lifetime warranty if you follow the registration instructions. Seems...

    aftermarket lift pump gph versus CP3 gph

    I did the Fleece in-tank replacement 5 months ago. Really a clean install and it works well. I like having the pump submerged in fuel - no issues with draw straws and sumps. Pressure ranges from 21-23 psi after the final filter. Did it as a PM. Took off the bed to install it.

    Battery time

    Just saw your post and also had weak P2s that I had installed in 2012. Odyssey bought Northstar and Odyssey was the supplier to Sears but I could not find a pair for under $600. I found a pair of Deka/East Penn AGMs at a local Farm & Fleet for about $150 each. The errors disappeared and starter...

    Locking tabs for fuel connectors

    I did some searches looking for the fuel quick connector parts but must not have the right terms. I'm installing a new in tank lift pump and trying to find the little plastic / nylon locking tabs for the fuel hose quick connectors. The local Mopar parts store says they don't have/sell them...

    Where are y'all buying replacement blower motors for the HVAC system?

    That has been my experience, and aftermarket fans just seem to be lower quality than oem. I'll stick with factory, too many failures with cheap junk.

    New bolts when changing 5.9 CR injectors?

    Looking for input regarding re-using vs new bolts when changing injectors. I've read some comments on the web which suggest using new bolts when replacing injectors on CR engines. I don't recall seeing this in factory manuals, but looking for feedback. All my torque tools are fully calibrated...

    ARP Rocker Studs

    I just noticed ARP offers a stud kit for the 5.9/6.7 rockers. What requirement would these be satisfying over the oem bolts?

    Truck bed cover

    I've had a vinyl Access cover for 5 years and it works well, but no lock. Bought the locking tailgate handle from Genos so it locks now. Won't stop the cutting, it works for me.

    Gelled Fuel and Damaged Injectors?

    Yes, the severe duty filter right after the tank has the heater wired in, but it is a good point. I'm considering some filter wrap heaters I see being offered for systems running fuel made from animal fats and deep fryers. I spent 3 winters keeping diesels running on Alaska's North Slope and we...

    Gelled Fuel and Damaged Injectors?

    Number 6 injector coil failed on my 07 5.9 in 2015 at 104,000 miles. I did a full replacement with those miles and used all new Bosch OEMs (0445120238) with new Bosch feed tubes. Filtration was upgraded with Mopar severe duty fuel filter by the tank and a Cat final filter between the OEM filter...

    Mopar Severe Duty Filtration Kit

    Mopar changed from a base that would work to a proprietary base which really limits the replacement choices. I purchased a Fleetguard base the came with the right threads which allowed modification of the kit so I could use common filters. I did a writeup a while back and included instructions...

    FCA or Injectors?

    Appears that an FVA might be in order. It completely resolved strange start problems I was experiencing.

    Which Brake Pads?

    I went the same route with Hawks after the originals needed replacing. With very little warning, the rear rotors were ground to nothing at 16k miles. I was baffled along with Geno's & Hawk. Pad wear was even on both sides, just bery agressive. Fronts had hardly any wear. Replaced my rear rotors...

    Oil thoughts....please

    I am not really surprised that 2017 models call for CJ-4 as the first production started before CK-4 was ready and in the pipeline. I would like to see what the 2018 models call for - if they are not specifying CK-4 I would be surprised.

    Starter Replacement

    I've used Powermaster starters in the past with excellent results. They appeared to be based on the Denso design. I spoke with them before purchasing and at the time they were built in the Chicago area. Here's a snapshot from their catalog:

    Power Steering Pump to Replace or not to Replace

    I've found used units on low mileage 6.7 trucks when I considered updating my pump. Many I found on car-part.com did not have high miles, I just don't recall the year models now which were compatible. Seems the new pump has more pressure capability, but I am not sure if the pump body is aluminum...

    Water Pump Question

    I'm carrying a Cummins spare after asking a lot of questions. For me, the main thing that I learned from a company that rebuilds only waterpumps is that while China may be having more success making bearings, they have not mastered or found a way to deliver high quality seals 100% of the time. I...
