Which Fass or Glacier would you recomed? I have an 04' and have been wodering the samething. Do you leave the old one or do you take it off? Sorry for the stupid questions I'm not very mechanically inclined.

How hard is is it to swap when it does fail? I just rolled over 100K and was thinking about getting a spare(i like the price of the one from Genos, a lot less then I was thinking), I know I could do it at the house when I have the time Im just wondering if its something that could be done on the side of the road if it does suddenly go out (granted I carry tools with me)

Just cracked 180,000 here on the original pump... But its showed signs of weakening for the last 3-4 months. Anything over 2,100 rpm is a joke now... doesn't really go anywhere and a stumble at idle occasionally. Ordered a Raptor 150 on Tuesday.

I went thru 3 in 98,000 miles. When it was off warranty, I installed 2 Holley black pumps on the frame rail and haven't had a single issue since then. I have 155000 on it today.

Pressure Issues
Yesterday, I was at the dealer, talking to their diesel mechanic, & he mentioned that the original pumps seem to last about 70,000 miles, on average. My truck is an '03, HO.
Last Oct., I installed a Glacier Diesel/Walbro system on my truck before I had fuel pump issues with the stock pump. I, also, bought a spare pump (Walbro) on Ebay in case of emergency. It was about $100.00.
I have about 66,000 miles on the truck.
