You should get this mod done ASAP for long term reliability.

There is no pump in the tank only a sending unit and the sock is attached to it. good sending units are on rockauto.com for a good price..i dont remember if rockauto carries ac delco in sending units. But i havent been on dieselbombers website that long but ive noticed youve posted alot of threads about your 6.5 giving you problems.i just wanna give my hats off to you man fer keepin her they really are a good truck!

Sometimes the original sock can be used on the new sending unit.

Click search this forum on tehe 56.5 section and search for fuel screen-I have posted some examples.

A simple 3/8" screen like a lawnmower would have would be good pre LP.
The LP on a 95 does not activate with the key,it activates through the LP relay when the key is turned to start and then once the engine runs it gets its power from the OPS-hearing the LP run while oil pressure bleeds off after shutdown is normal.

Google OPS relay mod and get that installed DIY for long term durability or buy the harness from Kennedy Diesel and install it.
