Used to be a way to blow some major smoke , anyone ever tried it on a cummins?

 

On what year truck? It returns for a reason DM

 

yeah, if it dont return or regulate pressure/fuel stuff starts to break

 

Oh now i know for a "fact" that a Dime will fit right in there then you hook the line back up and now your getting 100% fuel

This was on an old toyota diesel pickup

Tore the clutch out but it smoked like a freight train and ran like a bat outta hell

 

Do they have After market Overflow Valves for the P7100 ?

Doesnt the Over Flow valve regulate the fuel into the return manifold and back to the tank?

i think there may be a FREE mod that were not using to its full potential ?

Even if we dont block it 100% maybe we can restrict it ?

 

I was just being a smart *** ....after all it is you DM ...but that is pretty cool!

It really regulates right to the tank. And opens lower than the actual pump psi. The return manifold goes back to the fuel filter housing and enters with low pressure fuel.
But , the p7100 seems pretty happy with 25 and opening valve at 22. I know there's some aftermarket ones but not much fuss was made.....the pumps seem to do fine without. Seem's like some of the newer ones are higher than 22

 

I understand the VP44 is Fuel cooled so that wouldnt be a good idea , But with the P7100 why waste the fuel that the Liftpump is pumping Shove it into the cylinders ?

Just thinking out loud here , Whats your thoughts ?

 

Well....While the P7100 is oiled and oil cooled, the fuel also helps cool the pump , hence the reason it opens lower than pump pressure. Some folks push the pressure way up and modify the overflow to pulling trucks and such. I'm not very smart on this area....someone find hammer! He'll explain better!

 

Seems like a complete waste of resources to regulate the amount of fuel going into the cylinders with a return line , the technology is there for the lift pump to just send what fuel is needed . the pumps can be cooled by other means

 

Another thing, Whats not used by the injectors is sent back to the filter housing....At some point unused fuel has to go back
