You have reached a point where you get likes before the video is even watched. Well done sir. Well done.

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks Scott I appreciate it

[@romarazumovsky9002]

Sticking those quick disconnect fittings in the lines are quite the workout. Otherwise no complaints about airdog

[@35057]

I liked how AirDog allows flow through, or suck-through if the pump fails. It’s super quiet and I’m totally happy with mine. It’s been on for over a year now as my daily.

[@bradleyhodges451]

That’s why I watch your videos because you explain everything so good and you show how to do it you don’t just tell somebody you show them and I like that a lot and I like the way you mess Earl up all the time is very funny

[@chuck59j]

Just put one on my ‘05 Duramax. Have about 2500 miles on it now. Works great and was a easy install. I would also recommend a Ohio Diesel parts sump. I bought my air dog from Ohio Diesel parts and the sump. I worked with Riley Davis and I can’t say enough good about his customer service. Great guy! Great products!

I put a fleese in tank lift pump in my 2016 ram cummins. Only because the newer trucks have good filters already and really didn't need to change the set up. I know others may disagree. All lift pumps today seem to be pretty good. Nice choice.

Both are great . I have Fass in mine( LML ) installed A.D in my friends truck ( LML ) no complaints with either so far . The tuner actually recommends FASS...

[@Blue_Collar_Hunter]

WC Fab makes a bracket for the FASS Lift pumps, which raises the overall height, hides it in a more discrete location & uses 2 bolts to secure to the frame. I just recently installed my FASS. No issues. It was a hard decision between FASS & Air Dog.

[@classyjeremygaming]

Good job Josh going with a airdog system fass blew it with me

[@ericgilhart5951]

I've been trying to decide on what lift pump to get for my lmm you pointed out that adjustment screw I think that is very important can't wait to see the install

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks Eric

[@repairvehicle]

How do you know how much to adjust?

[@brandondaniel971]

The only issue I had installing mine was trying to get the quick connect off the tank. It took 3 guys, multiple types of fuel line tools and a few days. I lowered one end of the tank to get both hands on the connector. Then it popped off. I wear XXL gloves so it was tight. If the connectors would come right off it's easy just lying on the garage floor and about 4 hours. The most challenging part was trying to wire up the flow sensor and keeping it looking clean. I had a few small leaks after it pressurized but tightened them up.

[@onecleanplatinum8434]

I’ve got the same setup on my LB7 . You can tell the difference in throttle response. I kept my stock fuel filter housing under the hood. Figured it wouldn’t hurt with that much more filtration anyway.

[@TruckMaster]

That’s great to know thanks for sharing

[@joshmaynard8231]

Can't wait to watch the next video.

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks Josh

[@clarencehalfmann5323]

To prime leave the hose off going to the engine, slip a hose over the fitting on the air dog and put it in a drain pan or a gallon jug, prime and then hook up the hose to the engine, no mess, no bath in diesel

[@donaldlong9649]

awesome video!!

[@trent4959]

I put the same lift pump on my LB7 after new injectors for added protection. No issues at all.

[@TruckMaster]

Perfect 👌

[@trent4959]

Robert Ambrose wow, 500k! That’s awesome. I only have 173,000 on mine. I had new injectors put in, I added the air dog for extra filtration to help them last longer. And to help the CP3. Not sure if it will help the truck last longer or not. I just did it cause new injectors were expensive.

[@MrChochi01]

Damn ... and here I went with a Fass based on your previous install .... so far no problems so I’m happy, that set screw is nice to have down the line in case it needs it ..

I’ve installed both and worked with both customer service and would definitely recommend fass over air dog far better components no cheap plastic fittings or tiny aluminum fittings all 1/2 brass push locks and the L bracket to the bed bolt is much stronger than that sandwich plate air dog uses

I'm waiting on my BMP Lift Pump kit to come in. I got the water separation filter option with it. It was on sale too. The manufacturer says it is pass through design with an average pump life of 5 to 7 years. We'll see. Also said it can support up to 600HP and I'm running 520HP. Only cost me 300 bucks and mounts at the factory fuel filter location.

Truck Master good deal, looking forward to it! One thing I’ve never found good info on is where to drill the hole for the sump and not interfere with the factory basket or fuel level float. Hope you will be able to include that bit of information in your video. Thank you sir for the great videos and great content!

[@collinbirk9460]

I have been watching a bunch of your videos. I was wondering I seen where the FASS you installed on the lbz, you added a sump, but on the wifemax you installed the air dog but no sump, does air dog make a sump?

[@jabone3431]

i got this on my LML now. but when i take the cap off to fill it up it sucks a bunch of air in.

[@nofyfb123]

Here is my personal experience with airdog. Installation was somewhat painful (it's not clear on their site which model required tank removal and drilling so I ended up with the one that did even though I don't need any extreme tireburning performance) but doable. The first thing that happened upon start, check engine light came on with the P0089 dreadful rail pressure code. Quick search online revealed that it was a common problem because the pump comes from the factory poorly calibrated and line pressure is not desired 7-8 psi. You might wonder why the hell couldn't they set it. I sure did. Needless to say, you need a scanner to check code. I used to be in the automotive inspections field so I do. No instructions on how to deal with it were found in the installation manual or on their site so I called tech support. Apparently, I bothered busy people in the middle of something important - the guy was less than nice. Not even at walmart level nice. In any case, I learned that I needed to disconnect the line, unscrew the nipple and cut 1 or 2 coils from the valve spring. The above procedure is to be done more than once to get desired pressure. You might wonder why they did not provide a simple adjustment screw on the pump body. For that kind of money. I sure as hell did. There are two issues with this procedure. First, every time you remove the line, you get sprayed with fuel. Second, you need means to measure pressure at the filter. I do have fuel pressure gauge but threads in the bleeder plug happen to be metric while none of numerous adapters that came with the gauge were. To make your life even more miserable, standard-to-metric adapters are not readily available so I had to cut threads on a standard adapter and it worked but leaked. Not nice. 3-4 unplugging-unscrewing-cutting-measuring-plugging-screwing sequences and I got a little over 8 psi. Everything was fine and dandy for a few months. Probably because I am a Toyota man and rarely use this truck for firewood, and other heavy duty household chores, and only put about 500 miles on it since pump installation. Imagine my excitement when the CEL came on yesterday with the same lovely code. Now I have a lovely perspective of going through the same adjustment procedure but this time at freezing temperature. What could be more pleasurable than being soaked with diesel fuel? Being soaked while freezing. Now, have good luck with this pump. And if you don't have the equipment I mentioned, you need a LOT of luck.

[@Donnazbeenz303]

Hey bro just outta curiosity I have the 2011 lml stock. When putting a lift pump do you have to remove the CP4 and plug all the lines and unplug the electrical that goes to it if any goes to it. And would it said a check engine light. Cp3 is definitely a big consideration about financially is an ideal for me right now so I'm really considering a left pump.

[@doddgarger6806]

Seems to have cured my p0087 so far BUT I also have had the tank full lately wonder if I have a cracked pickup tube like the old ferds commonly had broken pickup foot

[@keithellingson1195]

What are your thoughts on the Venom lift pump?

[@Criticalthinkersonly]

So AirDog allows for flow or suck through if the pump fails. My question is does FASS allow for flow through on their systems. ? I have a 2004.5 Cummins and next week I’m getting my new lift pump installed. I’m still debating if it’s AirDog or FASS I’m going with.

Performance wise it is not needed for a stock truck. But for saving the life of your CP3 pump and injectors then it is definitely needed!
