vp44 pump?
 
What is the reason for switching from oil lubrication to fuel lubrication? In the injection pump?:humm:

Perhaps that hot engine oil would cook the electronics in the VP44. Then why would one design a system that uses fuel for cooling, and oil for lubrication. These pumps came out before ULSD was introduced. In my opinion, it had better lubricating properties. Many people run a conditioner with these truck, and some 2-stroke oil, just for added lubrication.

would adding lubrication like amsoil help the pumps life and keep better fuel pressure?
