I ordered the pump on the 24th (8 days ago). Had to wait for the Pensacola refund, which in all fairness did return not all, but more than I expected, of my money. I spoke Conestoga this afternoon, said they are almost done with the build and it should likely ship on Monday. I guess that's...

Yeah, I'm a liittle leery about putting retreads up front. But the price of four across the rear would save enough to go good quality for the front end. Thinking Yokohama at/s up there. My extension fenders have been patched up, and glued back together enough times if one got trashed I could put...

Anybody have opinions, good or bad? Thinking about "Treadwright" retreads. With the "Kedge Grip" additives for the truck in my sig. Also was thinking about trying to find someone that can do retreads onto a load range G carcass. Those are typically "ST" (special trailer) tires with the stouter...

I've recently learned the hard way about dealing with "rebuild" pumps, especially from Pensacola. However I tend to look at all of them with a somewhat jaundiced eye now. The labor time, and aggravation of screwing with questionable IP's just isn't worth it. OTOH, budget is a strong...

FFM fuel heater kit............Stanadyne # 31341 12 vdc 100 watt or #32364 12vdc 150 watt. WIX (NAPA) # 24922 ( I believe is the 150 watt Stan part) is $68 and change at Rock Auto.

The pump with hot start issues ran beautiful. Timing was on the mark to begin with, and I advanced a few degrees. Plenty of power, and smooth running. Cold start with just a few spins of the starter. But I didn't pay that much to still have driveability issues. Having to make certain I carry...

The first pump I had was from a good running J code 6.2. It did sit for about four years , and I went into it(from the side) and turned up the fuel screw about 1/3 turn. At static timing it smoked white and bucked. Advanced all the way it smoothed out and smoked at startup, but cleared up fast...

Thank You. I just spoke with Mel at Conestoga. Very impressed with him, and the reviews from around the web. As soon as I get the other pumps back to Pensacola, I'll have a "junior Moose" pump on it's way.

Well, I get to pay the freight, and a 10% "restocking" fee for junk. Aint I just thrilled with their "service"....... Now, the obvious question. What vendor do I deal with to greatly curtail any chance of a repeat performance? Who builds a good pump these days, or is direct from Stanadyne the...

Give me couple days to dig it out of the pile and get some good pics, and I'll PM, or email them to you.

I ended up swapping out the IP for a "rebuilt" 4911 from Pensacola. Getting rid of the cummins lift and installing an FRB 5 from Leroy in parallel with a stock lift, that allowed me to get rid of the FASS pressure regulator as well. The truck ran great, no timing problems, but had hot start...

It would be kinda difficult to install the lines in the wrong order, with the way they are bent. Nonetheless, I am very conscious of what I'm doing when I transfer them one set of two at a time from one pump to the other. Pretty certain that isn't the problem. I thought that perhaps I had...

Obtained db2 4911 "rebuilt", from Pensacola. Installed, truck ran beautiful, with one exception.......no hot start. About a pint of cold water over the IP would get it fired up again. They were very good about getting another pump to me right away. Installed, truck barely idles. Stumbles badly...

I can probably help with some pics and dimensions to help you fabricate one, if nobody can scrounge one up for you.

I got the new bushings from the dealer. Price not to bad at $18.00 per. problem is, like the control arm bushings, they need to be pressed out, and new one pressed in, complete with the shells. Easy enough on the control arms where they can be removed from the vehicle. Removing the entire...

AFAIK, the only FASS regulator they make. FPR1001 FASS tech support says deadheading the return will give the effect of eliminating the regulator from the system, but also reminded me not to tee into the existing return system. Their typical install is on vehicles that are utilizing...

I appreciate any and all help and thoughts

Lift pumps constantly. It's loud enough to hear it over the engine at idle. Never had a problem with this lift pump when it was coupled to the DS4. The lift is bypassed from the vehicle's system completely. Wired to a switch at the dash. I turn it on before turning the key for the glow cycle...

The facts....... DS4 replaced with DB2829 4646 J code from '88 vintage 6.2. Only mods to IP are inlet replaced with 3/8" fitting to go with the FFM FTB mod. And the delivery screw turned up 1/3 of a turn. Cummins hfp953 lift pump. Verified will push 17-18 psi with glow shift electric, and a...

Yeah, mine too. Maybe a PO replaced the original tank in DC's rig with a tank from a shortbed truck?
