FASS or AirDog? - Duramax Lift Pump Install

[@NobbiesGnomeRescue]

Ive got an Air Dog sat on my dinning table, I’m starring at it and the the wife and kid are starring at me. None of us were happy, until we watched your video… wife said “well, I suppose you can do it and we will get our @#^%ing dinning table back then”. My daughter said “daddy can I help”..? So thanks for making a video that makes it look fun for my kid…… she’s probably just going to bring me some snacks and ask me to play Mario Cart, but she’s 9, so I’m flattered 😊

[@freedomworx]

She can help you find the 10mm when you lose it 😂

[@ondago2]

Man take that love and that experience If a kid wants to help and especially a daughter I had one and she ended up going to engineering school following in my footsteps but if she wants to be there and said she if she's going to get snacks and ass to pay Mario kart or get a wrench or get you a drink or whatever dude enjoy it cherish it man.

You didn't make this video until a few months after I had installed my first ever lift pump I ever seen even first diesel truck but I got to say in retrospect I think yours is the best of the videos that I've seen. First off besides being thorough about what to do and why you injected some humor and fun and it made it actually cool to watch through even though I've now, done it.

great video! i ordered a FASS pump today and plan on following your procedures! your video is the best procedure ive seen on youtube! my 2008 w/160k is having fuel issues possibly due to vacuum loss from worn seals hoses etc. i agree completely with the need for a lift pump for the high pressure pump feed. makes perfect sense as many diesels have! not sure why duramax didnt use lift pumps on some systems! thanks for this great install video and helpful and interesting information.

[@adangonzalez9622]

Air dog also doesn’t have a bypass circuit if the motor or the pump itself fails and leaves you stranded. Fass does, therefore if the pump fails, you can still pump fuel with the CP3 and limp to town, home, or shop.

That's interesting. I have someone tell me that their FASS failed but they were able to keep driving 👍

I have driven my truck with fuse removed, on accident, for a few days till notice the truck fell on its face under hard acceleration. U can drive under normal conditions with the air dog 165 with no power. Have done it more than once.

[@CaptK-py8rq]

Good video, thanks. I bought the FASS for my 2004 Chevy 6.6 Duramax, I liked the 5/8" long sweep tube in the pump opposed to the smaller 1/2" 90-degree tight bend on the Air Dog. Bought the filter delete from FASS but it would not stop leaking, had to take it off, put a new filter and housing on instead, now I have a nice aluminum filter delete paperweight I can't do squat with. Anyone else have that problem with the filter delete not working? I increased my highway mileage about 1.5 -2 mpg. I typically get around 27-28 mpg on the highway empty and hauling around 22 mpg, depends on the ambient temp. I'm all stock on my 2004 dually crew cab so I installed the 100 series, just turned over 112,120 miles when I got the safety inspection the other day. I highly recommend everyone do this for your diesels. It's $700 well spent. I always buy new trucks and take care of what I have. Still have a 1992 Ford F-350 dually crew with the 7.3 and 5 speed manual.

I guess you could buy that fitting that Fass uses to go to the suction line and put it into the plumping of the AirDog setup and you could do the same bypass the lift pump scenario if you had the lift pump fail to take it out of the system loop.

[@freedomworx]

You could. 👍

[@fatboyrob95]

I ran the filter bowl delete from FASS pitch wasn’t the same as the housing had to use a strap wrench to tighten to stop leak. Had work in cold weather and started to leak till it warmed up. Ended up just running the housing delete. Tried two different filter bowl deletes same issue.

[@freedomworx]

I bought an XDP Filter delete. We’ll see how it goes.

[@stans5270]

Good call on the hard spiral wrap. At 17:34 it shows the hose going right against 3 layers of body sheet metal. I would add more protection in areas like that against chaffing by installing a stainless steel hose clamp over the wrap so that the sheet metal rubs against the hose clamp and not the wrap. At 650GPM, that pump would empty your tank before you could shut off the engine. At over $5 per gallon, better safe than sorry.

I've had the AirDog 165 II on my 96 GM 6.5L since 2013. The truck is happier with it than the OEM. Even the OEM 1994 LP which was supposedly a little better. Mine was gifted having been on two previous trucks since 2008. Customer service was great as I chose to go with new hoses vs. the already twice cobble up ones I recieved. Clear instructions and I'm not intuitive though I had to adapt because at the time, there wasn't a kit for the 6.5 motor equipped trucks (They do now). The pump motor failed after four years later (guess I'm part of another 1% group [Veteran) and, again, customer service was great. Sold me a new motor only and for a low price and I was able to repair the system in short order. The truck was off line until last year and I just reinstalled the AirDog. Again, the truck is much happier and I plan to leave it in.

curious why we don't have this stuff on gas engines, I get the fuel pressures are different but seems like it could still be beneficial to have the cleanest fuel possible.

[@chunkyharper9467]

I wonder if putting a shop vac into the fuel fill would create enough vacuum to keep that fuel cooler hose from leaking with a fill tank?

[@freedomworx]

Might be enough to implode the tank 😂😉

[@genecarr4568]

I understand the fuel return spool with angled pipe needs to pointed at the tank, makes sense. But what about the orientation of the angled fuel return pipe? Does it need to be at the top (12 oclock) position or can it be at a right angle (90 or 180 degree) positions. Also you mention they have the filter arranged with 2 micron first and 40 microns second. Are these interchangeable and can they be installed in reverse (40 microns first and 2 microns second)?

[@freedomworx]

I don’t think it matters how you clock the nipple on the return spool. Mine is pointed toward the rear of the truck. And for the filters, the thing that is unique about the FASS filters is that the water separator is incorporated into the fine filter (2 micron) instead of the primary filter (144 micro ). You can’t interchange them. The pump pushes through the 2 micron filter. If you put that filter before the pump, the pump would have to suck fuel through it. You’d end up with cavitation and not enough flow. The primary filter (144 micron) protects the pump from debris, but still flows enough to not cause cavitation or flow issues. The secondary filter (2 micron) protects everything else downstream like the CP3 and injectors.

[@genecarr4568]

@@freedomworx Ok I guess I missed that. So the fuel goes through the 144 micron filter first to protect the pump and then the 2 micron filter is second going to the engine?

@stevenm.hollis4429 there are pros and cons to each. The thing I like about the external units provide easier service to the pump and provide for more filter capacity. The main reason OEMs put them in the tank, is noise reduction.

Honestly never heard of them until you brought them up. 👍

[@Butch-x2x]

So I believe i heard you say the word BLEM . Do you know weather or not fass stocks several blems. Thanks

[@freedomworx]

I’m not sure. I just know that there were some available when I was shopping.

[@danieldilts7323]

Are you worried about the 1/4 tank and the pump runs dry? It happened to me - you can install a sump to eliminate that issue

[@freedomworx]

That’s certainly an option. But I plan to make more power, so I went ahead and got a lift pump.

[@solargarage]

Looking good.

[@freedomworx]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@karlvancour5309]

2011 had a cp4 suck from the tank no lift pump

[@freedomworx]

Did I say otherwise? I honestly can’t remember.

[@martyakers2509]

Ran across your video this morning. Great job! Where did you find a blem FASS?

[@freedomworx]

Thanks for watching. They had some blems for sale on the website when I was looking. 👍

[@Blackcloud_Garage]

What is that hose clamp at 8:21? Thanks.

[@freedomworx]

These: amzn.to/3TVUDCT

[@dandable]

Is that 25MM or 30MM round you’re using as a pointer? I used to manage the medium cal procurement team for the Air Force.

[@freedomworx]

30mm 😎

[@jaffasoft8976]

How do you know the psi it put up to the injection pump? If it needs ti be regulated can it regulate?

[@freedomworx]

There is a regulator incorporated into the FASS assembly. It’s designed to be 8-10PSI.

[@jaffasoft8976]

That be cool. Probably just enough to help push my waste veg oil as regular VE type pump struggling but I shouldn’t put it under too much pressure sucking either.

[@freedomworx]

It’s different depending on the application. A Duramax CP3 pump doesn’t like any more than that pressure. But the FASS system for a 12 Valve P-Pump motor is significantly higher than 10 PSI. Not sure about the VE systems though.

[@moegreen5941]

We don’t know yet but we are friends. Your version of infohumor is welcome here. A little lite on sailor vocab but that keeps it family friendly. I’ll be subbing. If we get enough likes and you wanted to buy an lml so you could teach me other things, well that would be great too. Until next time, adiós

[@freedomworx]

I'm glad you enjoy my conetent. But yeah, If talked like I did in the Marine Corps, I'd get cancelled 😂

[@xtremeboost7]

The fuse unkownly blew on my air dog, and my cummins continued to run for months.

[@freedomworx]

Well that’s good to know 👍

[@victorsidingguy4371]

Hello how much pressure should I put to the pump for lb7 2003?

[@freedomworx]

I wouldn’t know. I’ve got an LBZ 😉. I take it on faith that FASS and AirDog set the pump pressure appropriate for the application.

[@amandalabate2049]

I'm super unhappy with my fast fuel lift pump I purchased it for my 7.3 Shortly after purchasing it, they made an update and discontinued the fuel filters. So I can no longer replace them. And I've been running the same filters for nearly 10 years. They say they have a cross filter that will work. I've purchased that 1 and It will not prime. So yeah f fast fuel

[@freedomworx]

There are plenty of filters out there that cross-reference and should work fine. If the primary won’t prime, just fill it with diesel before you screw it on.

[@tedshantz6193]

in -20 u should b useing conditionet especaily in a cp4

[@freedomworx]

I always run fuel supplement. But I’ll never go anywhere that’s -20 unless I’m kidnapped and taken there 😉

[@FORGETYOU8]

Does it come with the hoses as a kit

[@freedomworx]

Yep. The only thing that didnt come with the kit was the hose wrap and magnetic zip tie holders I used.

[@JT-qf4it]

I heard you say that your fuel additive disperses water in the fuel. That is not good. Water should be separated from the fuel so it can be removed by the filters. Water mixed into the fuel will, with time cause rust or corrosion in the fuel system and injectors.

[@freedomworx]

The dispersed fuel is simply burned alongside the fuel. Fuel dispersants are pretty universal in diesel fuel treatments.

[@JT-qf4it]

@@freedomworx That's true but water mixed with fuel is an emulsion and should not be burned. Water should be divided from the fuel so it can be removed by the water separator. A dispersant works against a water separator by breaking down water so it mixes with the fuel. I would not use any additive that uses a dispersant. You want the water to fall out of the fuel so it can be removed from the system.

[@kumaragurusaravanan2248]

Which pump did you use for the truck?

[@freedomworx]

FASS 165

[@kumaragurusaravanan2248]

@@freedomworx would both the fass and airdog work with gasoline (petrol) engines as well?

[@freedomworx]

@@kumaragurusaravanan2248 I’m not certain. I know,in general, gasoline pumps aren’t rated for diesel.

[@JorgeMorales-ve4zi]

Did it improve fuel economy?

[@freedomworx]

Nope 😂

[@thebaycuddy]

What is a lift pump for??

[@thebaycuddy]

To make sure no air goes into the fuel system?

[@freedomworx]

A lift pump pushes fuel from the tank to the injection pump. Without a lift pump, the injection pump has to suck fuel from the tank. As the vehicle ages, it’s not uncommon to get air ingress (leakage) into the fuel lines, and the pump loses its prime. Then the truck won’t start or it takes a while to start.

[@thebaycuddy]

@ can I use cat filters on those?

[@DutchKC9UOD]

No you don’t leave a lift pump but it does help with leaking fuel lines

[@freedomworx]

I needed a lift pump.

[@randyolson415]

By the way mine is on a dodge 6.7.i have 125k on the pump.180k on the truck.

[@freedomworx]

Very nice 👍

[@t.l.robinson2162]

Either but I will NOT use Fass branded filters.

[@freedomworx]

Not sure how I feel about their water removal technology. I prefer a standard primary filter with water separator in it myself.

[@Djdjxhxjxj]

Fass or air dog?

[@freedomworx]

FASS is doing good so far 👍

[@DutchKC9UOD]

For more HP you need more air not fuel! If you blow black smoke full throttle you need more air that is more unburned fuel and is nasty

[@freedomworx]

The highest horsepower diesel blow tons of black smoke, unless they are running nitrous. If you aren't blowing black smoke, and you aren't running nitrous, you are leaving power on the table. You can't put enough turbo on a Diesel engine to clean up all the smoke, regardless of what Gale Banks tells you. The only way to get maximum power out of a diesel, and burn clean at the same time, is nitrous. If you don't understand that, I will be happy to explain the EGT, Smoke, Boost life cycle too you.

[@truckerron]

WHERE is the comparison to the AirDog??

[@freedomworx]

It’s in there, you just have to listen 🤷🏻‍♂️. Filters and plumbing are the only real difference.

[@smokeydexter6481]

Cat filters are way superior to Baldwin. and pretty close to FASS

[@freedomworx]

Well Cat actually makes their own filters, unlike most folks. They are good filters.
