Airtex LP Installed

Figured being as my flat bed is off my truck right now, it would be a good time to install my new LP. Took me about 2 hours to R&R everything so that isn't too bad. Only thing left is to zip tie the harness and fuel lines into place and double check everything. Found a fuel leak on the return line metal elbow that goes into the tank, so I'll be fixing that as well.

My Master Cylinder is suppose to be in today, hoping to get that installed tomorrow morning. Re-installed my Hydrobooster this morning as well since Napa told me this morning that the Hydrobooster is unavailable Truck should be movable tomorrow, hopefully






Don't have any PSI readings yet due to the fuel leak. Once I get that fixed, I will post up what I'm reading, should be better than the stock engine block LP Also, don't mind the jimmy-rig on my fuel filter canister, I have that there because the canister is cracked, and my fitting is stopping it from leaking (until I get an aftermarket filter system)

I hope you have better luck than I did with mine. Went through 2 within 7 mths and wound up putting the old Carter back on that they replaced. I think my next pump will be a Rapture.

hamilton71801, sorry to hear about your luck This is the first after market LP I've purchased for the truck so It'll be nice to see how long this one lasts.

dodge_24, I do not have the intake pump. I only had the little LP on the engine block, ran it for 2 years and it is starting to die. So I decided I'll try this pump and see what kind of numbers I get. Hopefully I'll have my leak and brakes repaired tomorrow and I'll let you know what pressures I'm seeing.

blake2500, those pressures sound pretty good! I'm hoping for at least 14+ PSI at idle, so we'll see how it runs

Well I got the old girl up and running today and was able to drive it to work again, yay! Idling my PSI us around 19-19.5, cruising around 90kmh my PSI is 16-17 if I remember correctly, and WOT I haven't had a chance to test yet. Hopefully get a chance to get on some pavement tomorrow and test my WOT run.
