So I'm curious as to how the fuel delivery works on our IDI's I have bypassed the lift pump and am running a green MR. Gasket fuel pump. (Its a piece of garbage like everything else nowdays) Anyways the electric pump has been sounding like its not running right lately. Then on a 190 mile tow the truck started to seem like it had lost power and was shaking a bit. Driving slower made it better so I did that. My fuel mileage was lower than normal as well. Realized the electric pump was intermittently running when I got home. So does the injector pump draw its own fuel in if the electric pump fails? Also is there any possible damage to anything from running with the electric pump not working all the time. Im not driving it until i fix it but wondered if i should check anything for damage?
