see that one thing that pisses me off there are 6 pumps recorded on my VIN for being replaced and they still told me today that they are not entitled to change it over since i have a F.A.S.S 2 he told me that it voids all warranty with the fuel system ......plus i think they should give us a credit or something for having to switch to a aftermarket fuel system to continue driving the 2nd gen's

Yes, the warranty goes with the truck, but I believe there is a 5 year limit also.

Interesting how many cuss Dodge about the lift pump woes, when it was mother Cummins who provided the fuel system with the engine package. That very same lift pump is on alot of different types of vehicles. Motorhomes, big Ford trucks (650 I believe), local Snap On mans tool rig, my city's street sweepers......and they all have the same prob.

Well, with the only feedback as to the performance of the new in-tank LP is that it only pumps out 8 psi at idle, I think I'll pass on that set up. Since all pressure is is the measured resistance to flow, and if the factory 5/16" fuel ines remain the same size with the new in-tank LP, fuel flow cannot be increased without a pressure increase.....and if the pressure has dropped, so too, has the flow......not good....it means the new in-tank LP is flowing less fuel than the stock Carter.

Volume is important, but so is psi AT the same time.
A couple of us over on TDR are gathering data on the VP operating temp and cooling. I had a stock lp and 140*+ VP temps (DC just replaced my VP 0216 codes generated by excessive heat). Went to a RASP (or whatever other flavor you want, FASS etc) that does 15psi (VP bypass cracked open for flow) and the VP operating temps dropped 20* - 30*.
There is something to be said for volume BUT ALSO psi AT the same time.
Someone here should measure the VP temps (fuel temp in, electronics bay, body, return flow, mileage, OAT, tank level, unloaded / loaded and what #, flat / mtns) , get the in tank pump, measure the VP temps again.
GREAT if the in tank feeds the VP properly!, but low psi is a VP killer for sure.
