Added a second Dura-Lift today

[EMD_DRIVER]

I've been having lots of problems lately, with a fuel starvation issue. When I installed my Dura-Lift pump last year, I was running a high percentage WMO mix as fuel. I believe it weakened the pump, but didn't destroy it. I'm now running a much thinner WMO mix and a lot more diesel in it, but couldn't get much above 1800RPM's before the fuel filter light would come on.

I bought another Dura-Lift pump for my 87, but hadn't installed it yet. After reading Exekiel69's post (Here) I thought about adding it to my 93's system. I didn't want it under the truck like the other one and mounted it off my auxiliary fuel filter mount. It sits a little high there, but only touches the blanket a little. I wired it to the existing fuel filter relay, since the relay itself is rated for 30AMPS.

Took it for a test drive and the tach actually went over 3 grand! I haven't ever seen 3 grand on it, in this truck! I also climbed a 5% grade in 4th gear and accelerated! I also took it on the interstate and kept my foot to the floor for about a mile. No fuel filter light at all...

Here's a couple of pics of the install..

That's the one I wrote about, in THIS thread....

It's an over-sized 6.9 filter..

If I were only running one of these pumps, I would not have it mounted there. I have one after the FSV and this one at the filter head. Seems to work great!
