I just bought a 2001 3500, and it's in the shop having a fass lift installed this week. im excited it had set for a while, so the tank was full of water and allgie. It's getting r&r cleaning with fresh fuel, and hopefully, it will be ready to go.
Fleece makes an upgraded sending unit that allows you to connect the 1/2" hoses to the fass system. Wish I would have known this before I did the draw straw.
Very nice. I subbed after I watched the first vid I seen from you. I stumbled upon your vids while looking at vids of 3rd gen 6 speeds towing. Nice job, keep up the good work.
I put my Fass fuel system on my 99 2500 15 yrs ago and have not had a once of trouble out of it. I do like the new fuel fittings they put in the kit., The old ones were a bitch to push up all the way.
Hey I have a dumb question. I bought my 06.5’ 3500 with a 5.9er and it had a Titanium 150 on it but the harness got messed up so I’m in the middle of replacing but was just making sure I’m getting the electrical hook ups right and I noticed you said you spliced into factory wiring over top of tank so I’m wondering what you meant? I should t need to drop the tank just to replace the harness right? And thanks for the vids and love the music super cheerful lol!
I bought a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 w/ 5.9L cummins and it has the Fass system on it. I've never had the Fass system before it seems kinda loud! Is that normal? Thanks, great video.
I’m getting ready to install my FASS on my 96 5.9 12 valve Cummins diesel. My question is, what am I supposed to do about my manual lift pump, do I cover the hole where it came out or just leave it in? I’m sure you going to say take it out or it’ll fry the manual pump but the question remains. When I pull it does anybody make a cover plate or do I make one myself?
Is the Fass pump run all time I took both my ground cables off to weld on my exhaust pipe when I hook the battery cable up and turn the key on the pump wants to run out of time on the fast flow pump I just got to Truck had one of those fast flow system for so my question is does the pump supposed to run all of time when the key is on and not running
I know this is a year old but just wondering about leaving the stock in tank pump assembly installed, is it available in an emergency like if the FASS unit dies? Would it just require a couple fuel line swaps to use? I thought I saw an install vid where they gutted the stock fuel pump and installed the draw straw in that assembly? Mine is a 2004 so no in tank pump assembly and I think that was an option at one time to retain the stock lift pump along with the FASS system Just In Case....
Honestly I don't want to use my stock sump pump, and you'd have to change wire plug ins and fuel lines to reuse, plus reuse old main fuel line from fuel tank to the motor, not worth the time. Also, you shouldn't have any issues out of the FASS 165, iv got mine on my o6 cummins. It works great and could tell a difference after it was installed. A little more mpg, smoother idle, and a few other things
I have a 2006 5.9 Cummins with Smarty S on level 9. I am running out of fuel....with this lift pump be enough or do you think I need to get the bigger one? Thank you
I bought a fass pump probably 10 years ago. I thought that these were installed inline. I believe that mine is different it didn't come with a pickup tub
Kinda like the old way of hooking up the draw straw and return line. New style has ya drilling holes in the old pump housing. There is a bit of prep involved there.
ManInTheBigHat my dad has an 01 3500 with a fass installed. Truck sounds a lot healthy with the fass installed. No air bubbles and cleaner diesel. Idk about power but it’s very well worth the install. I recommend it. Especially for a 24v. Safety for if the stock pump drops. Protect your vp44. Dad only has a 95gpm. More than enough. Has a fuel pressure gauge instal to monitor it working. 👌🏻
ManInTheBigHat I have a Fass 150/150 on my 2003. Power is better because it has full supply of fuel pressure of about 14.5 psi. Stock pump will drop to about 2.5-3 psi at WOT. So less throttle to get the job done= for me about 2 miles per gallon better mileage. Is worth every penny. You want to protect your VP44 injection pump.
@@VBELTandSON awesome thanks. I was thinking of going on and running the wiring today then waiting and doing all the fueling another. That way I can break it up and not be down as long. Dont think the wiring will take 20 min though lol.
Jason Brinkmeyer yea wiring is simple. Take more time to zip tie it up safe. Hah just be sure when you cut the hoses that you only use just enough per section they don’t leave you much room for error
Pay Attention sump for highway trucks. No sump because he drive thru the woods and off road. No point in adding something that a stick could rip off and ruin your day
you need a fuel pressue gauge then I bet once you start getting below a half tank your lift pump pressure will start fluctating and once down to a quarter it will start eading zero. You wont feel your truck start cutting out unlesss your lift pump pressure gets real bad
you need to modify your fuel module and put your draw straw to suck out of the module... Our trucks have a ridiculously long skinny tank and sucking out of the module will keep the straw in fuel even when all the fuel sloshes away from the pickup. Trust me get a fuel pressure and rail pressure gauge your cp3 will thank you
Nicholas_ Hoaglan_215 have a fuel pressure gauge. Just ran down to the red on E no hip ups on fuel pressure. Why you thinking there should be an issue?
Also if you wanted todo it the way your doing it you should have left the tank mounted lifted the bed and left the tank full of fuel cus the bottom of the tank sags down a couple inches with fuel in it. So i bet your daw straw is litterally inches off the bottom all bad...
