Fuel pressure
I have a 96 12v (details in sig), my problem is when I'm towing my enclosed trailer and I start up a incline on the interstate, I apply a little more pedal to maintain the speed but it doesn't want to pick up anymore...
It acts like there is no more pedal after half throttle or less... I carried it to Swamps Diesel Performance in Nashville TN (they done the mods to it) and they said its low on fuel pressure... Said it has around 7-9psi at idle and 16-18.5psi at WOT... I know this is low... They recommended replacing the lift pump with a Air Dog electric pump... My main question is, is this what I need to do and what size pump? They offer a 100, 150, 165, and 200 I think... Open to any suggestions... I want it fixed right, this truck is used for towing only... Will be doing other upgrades eventually... Thanks for the help... |
