Fuel Pump?
Anyone have a idea? 2002 6 speed Engine will sometimes cut out to no power and sometimes white smoke. If I shift down and hammer on it she'll take off again. I have instlled a new frame rail lift pumpand have a constant 9lbs at the filter. I have a edge comp box and it makes no diff if it is on or off. Thanks Don

There is only 52000 on truck. I have edge comp, 4 inch turbo back stainless, k&n filter, Piller gauges EGT fuel pressure & boost. Many times at start up it will blow a whitiss blue smoke then clear up. Usually cuts out when I ease off pedal. Is 9lbs at filter enough pressure? Thanks Don

That depends. What is the pressure at the VP?
There can be a huge restriction in the filter that you may or may not be seeing. Depends on what side of the filter you are checking.
It may simply need a new filter. Double check lift pump pressures at idle, cruise and WOT. All measurements should be taken as close the VP as possible and after all restrictions (fittings).

Yeah. I take the FP reading on the outlet of the fuel filter so I know what the VP is seeing. Works like a champ (finally). See at least 12 - 13 @ WOT. About 16 -17 at idle.
