I didn't really care for the module mod kit that came with my AD165 so I bought a Hellman Fuel sump. Now if it starves its my fault! Just my opinion.

Never had a problem with either of my trucks with the 165 straw setup and they both have been well past the low fuel light with no issues with losing pressure.

The Airdog II has a different setup than the Original Airdog. The Vulcan DS1 is like the Airdog II setup.... It returns the fuel back into the module instead if just back to the tank.
