Just another reflash

For when you get the tank fuel pump reflash, So it reads

That's really cool! So obviously Dodge has come to realize they have got to do something about these lift pumps. They've changed to an in-tank retrofit and now they're leaving it on for 30 seconds. I'd like to think this website might have had something to do with it.



I can manually turn on my LP at will and achieve the same effect.



My truck has had no reflashes... I'm happy with the way it runs (and the slow fuel gauge doesn't bother me). I'll elect not to bother with this one.
