First off, thanks to Pure Flow for offering to carry over the sale through January 2008.
I have an 07 Dodge 5.9L, Edge EZ, CAI, want new exhaust/stacks, intake, etc. Does the Air Dog 100 meet my needs? (Just a few bolt-on mods, nothing extreme.) To install the Air Dog, do you have to drop the fuel tank? (Or lift the bed?) Are there advantages and disadvantages to keep the fuel plumbed through the existing filter bowl? Our Dodge's have some kind of fuel heater and a water sensor in the filter bowl? If no problem to keep the filter bowl, is their a problem to keep a filter in it? Does fuel running through this added filter/cavity "cavitate" and stir up the fuel mixing air back in? Or someway other cause issues? Thanks - |

I wish I had experience with the Airdog but I dont
I will say that the OEM filter housing has a heater and a WIF sensor in it and IMHO you should try to keep it in service just for those features......myself I would run with a filter in there too even though the Airdog has its own filters and air/water seperator as far as how they hook up to the tank I dunno what the kit comes with..does it have a whole new pickup assembly I would love to do one so I could give a full blown tech article with pics.............................drive up here man so we can do it - |

I don't know what comes with the kit either. And as for a road trip to Wyoming... I'd figure 2500 miles r/t to San Antonio. Or $600 in fuel. Another $75 for a winter coat for me. I get about 19 mpg on the highway in the hill country. Nah, I'll pass, but thanks for the offer... maybe if the price of fuel comes down. (Or actually the value of the dollar goes back up) ---AutoMerged DoublePost---

Wasnt paying attention. You will have to remove the stock lift pump. - |

Its not real bad if you have two people and a lift. Its about a 4 hour job to do the tank mod and install the new LP. -

Put the truck up on blocks and get it off the ground. Use a floor jack with two boards bolted to it so that you can slide the jack back and forth while loosening the clamps. -

droppin a tank aint that bad
first of all get yer fuel level down to like 1/8th tank totally disconnect fuel lines and electrical connections use the floor jack and a couple boards ....I used just the floor jack and one leg for balance remove the 2 tank clamps lower it then scoot it off the jact to the ground .................................................. ....................... another option thats not bad is to lift the bed totallt remove the bed bolts on the drivers side loosen bots on passenger side remove fuel fill up hose lift bed by haqnd and jam a 2x4 in there to keep it propped up aint that bad really - |
