jvencius,

Do you have a fuel pressure guage? Do you monitor fuel pressure?

I cant say I know anything about Ford Diesels but most people put on an upgraded fuel system like the AirDog so they can get a supply of constant fuel pressure delivered to the injector pump. These are not inherently performance enhancing devices, and often the benefits are not easily seen. -

I don't have one that's visible from inside the cab. The ITP reg. return kit I have has a gauge that mounts to the regulator but since it's under the hood (and since I haven't yet warmed to the idea of dropping nearly $200 for an electric Optix fuel pressure gauge I don't have a way to monitor fuel pressure under WOT out on the road.

I realized that installing an AirDog on top of the fuel system mods I've already done might not be a night/day improvement, but I was hoping for at least SOME changes for the better. It's a fine product and if I had installed the AirDog before the RegRet system then the difference might have been more obvious but I can't help but think that my $500-ish might have been better spent elsewhere, given the mods that were on my truck previous to the AirDog install. -

I agree with what Dr. Evil said about some of the gains not being as apparent on some modded trucks. However, there is nothing negative that comes from removing the air from the fuel. One of the benefits that is not talked about near as much with removing air from the fuel is the protection it gives the injectors. Air in the injectors causes cavitation which damages the injectors, when that air is removed it prolongs injector life. I hope you will begin to see some of the benefits that you were expecting soon.

Thanks

We sell diesel performance products as well as install them. We used to sell FASS systems, but switched to Air Dog about 8 months ago. In our opinion it is a better product, being that you have adjustability and a lifetime warraty. That alone lets you know it has to be a better product. Go to youtube.com and watch the truck we built perform in the Las Vegas san dunes after the 2008 Sema show. We run Air Dog on our tucks, and sell many to our customers. I have not had one come back yet, with the customer unhappy. It has been our expierence that this product does more for your truck when you have multiple modifications, but if you install this as your only modifcation it works just as well. It is kind of like fuel additive, you know it is doing good for your engine, but you dont neccessairly feel the improvement. But you are insuring good long life for your engine and internal parts. We feel Air Dog acts sort of like this. It gives you good clean fuel with out air, so that you can maximize all the power adders you have done to your engine. You can not maximize the full potential of all those adders without good clean airless fuel, hence Air Dog. sendamechanic.com Chet Eastin San Antonio TX -

Chet,

Thanks for the testimonial, we appreciate your support.

I had the pleasure of meeting Chet while in Vegas for SEMA, and this is one stand-up guy, with a SICK truck. I think you may see this truck in some upcoming PureFlow ads. I was unaware of the dunes video, but if the pictures that I seen are an indication of the madness that occurred.....I cannot wait to check it out.

Do you mean this video?

Welcome to San Antonio

quick question for ya ron, should i have to bump the key to get my airdog 150 to start running. -

Hey Ed,

Your AirDog should start running just with the key in the forward position. You should not hane to bump the starter to get the pump to kick on. If you are having to bump the starter, then you need to plug your "Mini Fuse Tap Relay" lead into a spare fuse holder on your fuse panel that is "hot" when the starter key is turned to the on position.

I hope this helps.

Ron

Yes, Anthony and I work together. We are both account reps for PureFlow. -

My buddy just installed an AirDog 100 in his 2003 Dodge. It works great when the tank is full, but when it gets down into the 1/4 to 1/3 tank range, the engine starts missing and actually stalls. Fill it up, and it is fine again. We believe that the return stream is churning air into the fuel, and is being picked up by the pickup line. Are we on the right track, and has anyone else encountered this? If so, what is the fix? -

This is a common problem. It can usually be fixed by installing an upgraded Draw Straw. -

I have a couple questions for you. You said your buddy's truck is a 2003 Dodge. Does he have have an in-tank pump? The factory pump would be located up by the filter, but if he has had to replace his lift pump before then it may have had an in-tank pump put in. If he has an in-tank pump, and you put in a draw tube kit, then this would help to explain the 1/4 tank issue. We can eliminate this with our new High Flow Fuel Module Upgrade Kit. This kit allows you to pull fuel from the basket and it returns the unused fuel right back to the basket. The concern that you had about introducing air into the fuel from the return line is not a problrm. The AirDog will remove more air than could ever be introduced from your return line. With our test stand we can pull fuel from our tank that looks like foam and send a clean stream of fuel to the pump.

Normally, the 2003 Dodge kit would pull from the existing fitting at the top of the basket, and return to the fill neck. If this is the way it was installed then you should not be experiencing any 1/4 tank issues. If this is the way it was installed and you do not have an in-tank pump and you are still experiencing this, then I would have to assume there is an issue with your existing suction line.

We are working on a kit for Dodge trucks that do not have an in-tank pump. This kit should be available within the next couple of weeks.

Feel free to contact us here at PureFlow. We will be happy to help you find the root of the issue.

Thanks,

Ron

Does this pump replace the factory rail pump. How do they work with Bio. I have a 2001 ford F350 . Thanks patmeyer@embarqmail.com -

We do have a pump coming that is a replacement pump for the Fords, similar to what we have for the Dodge trucks. These pumps should be available within the next few weeks. We are starting to get a pretty good size per-order list, so if you want one quickly, I would say get a hold of your dealer and have him order one.

Thanks,

Ron -
