How much fuel is in your tank right now? I have the 1/4 tank issue and I have the airdog 100 hooked to stock fuel tank draw. I just keep it above 1/4 tank... Put some fuel in it and try it again

Hey Brad you could install a Draw Straw to fix that 1/4 tank issue.


8 psi is low if your running an Airdog

Yeah Luke I've been planning on doing it for some time... It seems I work on other peoples trucks more than mine haha. I'll get to it one of these days... I'm sure it would up my 12 psi at wide open a few points also. With my upgrades it wouldn't be a bad idea to go with a draw straw...

Here's a fuel pickup I put together for about $20 worth a parts and no more fighting gravity to pull fuel straight up. I've had it on the truck for some years now with no issues.
