lift pump?
 
Will Very LOW fuel pressure while gettin on it all the time take a toll on the lift pump? Its not out of fuel just very low. thanks for any info

Starving the injection pump will hurt it

My lift pump was @ 2-3 PSI for the better part of 6-8 months until I replaced it with the Walbro ove rthe weekend.

Now, if you starve the INJECTION pump (CP3) you can and will hurt it which is a no no. The Walbro (or similar will set you back $350-$500). I paid $400 for my Walbro (the entire kit, fittings, hose, clamps, etc...)

So does that mean since my fuel pressure has gone all the way to zero a couple times then my cp3's not gonna be in very good shape. would gettin a modded one be a good idea now.

Under boost, mine would hit "0" as well (lift pump). My CP3 is putting out 20-21K PSI on stock setting. When I bump up my Rail Pressure on Level 1 on my TST, it will hit 26.5K PSI.

I have the Bd Lift Pump kit a Vulcan Big line kit. This is a great set up. I see 22-23 psi at idle and rarely ever see my pressure drop below 18 psi. This is a great kit, the oil pressure switch allows for easy starts. Easy install as well. As for noise, I here people comment on pumps being too loud. I can hear mine when standing out side next to the pump, (only cause I know its there basically). Other than that, it is not an issue. Paid $254 at Oregon Fuel Injection which is pretty much the going rate for this kit. Everything is included except a tubing cutter for stock lines if you still have them. The cost is less than $5 for this at Home Depot or Lowes.

You are going to love it. Knowing that I do not have to worry about starving the CP3 makes me sleep good at night[coffee]

Chet, go with the Glacier Diesel Pump, I may even buy one for myself, just as a backup.
