    Another lift pump lets me down.

    You won't notice any difference, performance wise. But the idea behind volume flow in fuel return, is to keep the air out of the system, and to get the fuel temperature down. Less restriction better flow, so relocating the line to go back to the tee, cools the fuel out of the pump faster then...

    Another lift pump lets me down.

    Has anyone replaced the fuel line going to the pump? I'm using 3/8th and never have issues from my Carter lift pump.

    Having a winch means, you are popular, for those that don't. Those who don't, usually don't think, ahead, behind or to each side either.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    A lot of driving, a lot of fuel burned. Epic to say the least. New place, will take a while to set up . New shop, to build. Etc.

    You can see the cracking, right where the pivot for the fork attaches. These bellhousings are prone to crack here, the pivot came almost out off to one side, bent, not sure what happens first.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    The pivot bolt, had not been lubed often enough I think, my bad. Here's the replacement housing with a good pin. I was in a hurry and didn't snap enough pics . I'd also fixed a couple cracks in the y-pipe while it was apart. Here it is, back together with some grease on it. Before the fork was...

    I'd put a dual diaphragm booster in, and a bigger master cylinder, guts wise, ended up 1 3/4 inch longer so cut the old pipe off and made another one with better flow. Picked up some earlier boost, and a bit more responce. Brakes work better too.

    Loss of Power, Possible IP/Injector Issue

    Just a thought, but make sure your exhaust is not plugged. And no restrictions in your fuel line going to the motor. Mechanical fuel pump works properly

    Fuel Filter Mystery

    Your system integrity is week. All, connections, and any rubber lines needs a good going over. I start at the return line, and go forward. Tank, lines ,no looseness. Rubber lines can get a flip, inside that plugs fuel, one way. Return lines have to be tight. Then, filters, feed lines, I'm using...
