Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Walboro ( SuperDuty ) Pump installed !!!!

[Sea01Cummer]

Well it has been a long day and i finally got it done. I mounted the pump with the factory mount on the outside of the frame rail between the transfercase and fuel tank. I ran a fuel line from the pump up to fuel filter inlet banjo. I installed the holley 12-803bp regulator between the filter and the injection pump. I put a T in the return line near the back of the engine where the soft line connects to the frame rail, then hooked a line from the T to the return off the regulator. I hooked the wires from the factory lift pump to power the new pump. I fired it up and set the pressure at 20psi, no leaks first try, how the hell did that happen. I plan to biuld a shield to cover the pump from road debris later. I have a westach fuel gauge to install in the pillar to finish testing and monitoring the pressure, for now i set the pressures from the gauge i have under the hood. I am glad to have a pump that will last thousands of miles and has proven to be durable even if it is from a FERD.



Stay tuned for testing info





I set some codes by hooking directly to the lift pump wire, this needs to be run through a aux relay.

so you added a pump from a stroker as a pusher??? i have never heard of this. . i just installed a holley blue with a vulcan big line kit yesterday. . interesting

The 99+ Ford SuperDuty pumps are very reliable. I have only had to replace two in the last 6 years on customers' trucks. It's made by Bosch, and it pricey, but it works good. VERY quiet too. Available in two versions too.

lets get some pressures. I am toying with the idea of one too, but i am not too sure about the flow under WOT, if i couldn't pull it under ~10 i'd be a happy man, looks like with your setup though if you can't pull it under ~10 then i will probably go this way.

There is no pusher , this pump is the main pump. I have some stuff to do today like wire it in with a relay using the factory lift pump wire as a trigger wire to trip the relay. I also need to get my in cab fuel gauge mounted so i can monitor pressure. There should be no reason not to hold 10psi at wot, i hope. I got a used one at a salvage yard to try 35. 00 , these pumps have been known to run 200k at 65psi. The cost new is about the same as a factory lift pump maybe a hair more. I will keep you posted on the testing results.

Sea01cummer, I'm glad to see you got her done. I've been following the thread over on DTR and have been waiting for someone to do the install and iron out the kinks.



For those who are interested; the pump is a Walbro GSL392 and you can get it for around $120 on Ebay ... with the mounting kit!



There's a guy by the name of "Superduty" who has been promoting this system over on DTR. He has a 3rd gen Cummins engine installed in his Ford and uses this system. Here's a link to his thread on DTR:

Yep, a lot of talk over on DTR. And as asked above, you shouldn't have to worry about falling below 10psi at WOT, as mentioned in the first post, this thing requires a regulator to keep pressures down!

I did make a mistake on the name it is a bosch pump off a 99-2003 superduty ferd psd.

yeah it can run 60 psi, but at what flow does it run 60 psi, i doubt that the pressure even with out a regulator, could hold 60psi with a even slightly modified truck WOT. see where im going with this, and where my concerns come from?

Superduty has posted flow charts for the Walbro pump on DTR. It will flow all the fuel our ( 2nd & 3rd gens ) truck will ever need at the appropriate psi. Check out his threads with the flow charts, you`ll see.

hmmm, never thought of that. I use walbro pumps in most of my cars. right now there is a 255lph pump in my race car. which Im not sure if it is larger or not thatn the stock ford pump, I would beleive it to be. and they are redily available for under 100$
