Sound like you need to add a boost elbow and a bit more fuel.

how often should i change my filters on the airdog?
When the fuel pressure drops. Like I've got a bit over 30K on my AirDog 150 filter and barely lost about 1-2 PSI. Not enough to worry yet because my WOT pressure is still 16 PSI I'm not even worried.

what are the filter size?
I'm running 2-3 micron filters for the best protection of the VP44. (Fleetgaurd or Donaldson)

Remember Quadzilla is out of business and there is no support for it.

It was either quadzilla or banks. I'm trading for a EZ off a common rail.

Alright. I have aftermarket filters currently. So I guess just go get those same filters?

Just check on the micron rating of the filter before buying them. Brand name isn't as important as the micron rating. I tend to so far like Fleetguard or Donaldson filters...

It is good to see that I am not the only one that preaches the use of these filters on Diesels. I also like Baldwin filters. Mopar filters for Cummins diesel are manufactured by Fleetguard so you wont go wrong with those either.

If the fuel filter set up is manufactured by Air Dog then I would check with them on what size and style of filter they use. Unfortunately I do not have an Air Dog filter set up. Most of my experience is with mostly stock trucks. I recommend changing the fuel filter on a stock truck every 10 to 15000 miles.
