Yeah. Pull the cam out and check the lobe with a dial indicator and v block. Or with a caliper. If its within profile spec you're good.

So have you touched you return OFV or have you thought about replacing the Lift pump ?

Dont touch the Ip until you get through the basics first .... :argh:..

pullin the Ip apart on a whim lilke that is a waste of time .... the cams dont just suddenly go out .. :nope:

i pulled the lift pump apart the other day and the screen was totally clogged to shit. I just bought some airdog 2's cause i rather not put the stock lift pump and filter setup back in and i had some extra cash.

Well that was lilkley the issue .. no need to go all out .. it is nice to have a possible electric back up ... if the airdog goes out your screwed ..

Manny guys run a dual feed system ..

Run a stock Lift pump and an electric fuel pump, Put a Y in the feed side of the IP feed line and have a dual feed system .. ( typically they place a Check valve in the out going side of each pump so if the pump fails the other pump wont just push fuel backwards through the bad pump ) ..

Quite Effective, and always have a back up .. can use the electric to prime system and such also .. :tu:

I think I'm gonna do that. Not sure why it's taken four years to decide to, but. It is what it is.
