fuel pressure problems with aftermarket pump
fuel pressure problems with aftermarket pump
I have the Glacier 392 w/big line kit on my truck. My pressure has been reading funny lately, it will be a 0 at idle and go up to about 12 when I am in the throttle. At WOT it never falls below 9, but when I let off, the pressure drops back down to 0. The pump sounds different lately, like maybe a surging sound. Could my pump already be going out? I have only had it on for around 20k. I have changed the fuel filter and the small filter before the pump within the last 4k but the change has just happened recently. I am running the juice "hot" flashed, EZ stack, aftermarket intake, and Glacier with a quad r/p and f/p gauge. Any help would be great.
I just replaced mine a couple months ago and I think it was at about 25,000. I wasn't real happy, but I had already bought a spare walbro and had it ready to go. I have since bought yet anohter to keep in the truck. if I end up using it, I am done with that system.
You can get the pumps for close to 100.00 online.

I have the same lift pump setup as you, and I too thought I was having pump problems. It ended up being my fuel pressure sensor for my gauge. Once I got that squared away, my pressure is now a constant 21 psi no matter how hard I hammer on it.
its the fp sensor from quad more than likely, i'm having the same issues and i've been thru a 392 and i'm on a raptor 150 now. this is why quad switched to a transducer type sender. there are lots of threads on this for more info.
truck lost power yesterday, just barely could give it pedal or it would stall. I messed with the pump, tapping on it and loosened connections and retightened it. It started back up, but seems to be pulsing. All connections looked clean.

take your check/bypass valve off and poke inside it with a small screwdriver to make sure its not stuck. there is a little piston inside it that will move when you poke it.
I assume the pump is running the whole time, right? no loose connections, etc.?
