Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Fuel Pressure Gauge Noise

[ACarola]

Questions my isspro fuel gauge is make noise under a load. Can someone tell me how to fix this or does always happen. Does this mean i have air in the line? Thanks for any help.

Any one noise is driving me crazy ?????

assuming you are not using an isolator what i did was get a small needle valve and put it inline under the hood. Open the valve just enough for the gauge to work and this should get rid of most if not all of the noise.

Thanks for the reply. I do have a isolator on it. Got the kit from genos andy

Had the same problem, but I wasn't running an isolator and it was a stainless hose in the cab. 1st I was reading at the VP44 inlet - lots of noise. Moved it to the bottom of the stock fuel filter, better, but still intolerable. Finally, got a FASS and I read from the FASS pressure port. No more noise. Try moving the isolator (or where it reads pressure) as far away from the VP/engine as possible.

I have a Westach Fuel Pressure guage with the isolator line running to the VP44, no rattles. However, my ISSPRO Boost guage with port mounted to engine, frequently rattles under acceleration. I'm told there is a snubber for this, but haven't bothered.
