8.3 ISC lift pump

Just thought I would see if anyone knows anything about this pump. Curious to know the volume output and at what psi.

The one on our 8.3 Cummins powered fire truck just went out the other day. Truck is 2 years old and less than 50k miles.

It mounts on the block in a similar location as our truck ones do.

In doing some research, I don't think the lift pump on the 8.3 runs continuious. I think it pumps fuel to the CAPPS?? pump only on start up and then the injector pump takes over from there.

Anyone have more info on the 8.3?

8.3L Cummins engines

We have a bunch of used 8.3L Cummins diesel engines that are good runners- do they need a replacement??
