Pump orientation

95 f250 5.8 still having bad low fuel pressurte (20psi) with all new pump, fpr, filter.

There are two arrows on top of the fuel pump round "plate" which the ring holds down. Could I have the pump turned one way too much. What are the two arrows. Both point out in opposite directions.??


God Bless
John

I just did mine and i don't remember arrows, but i think that might just be for lining up the cut outs in the tank with the two small tabs on the pump so it doesn't spin around.

Have you checked the voltage at the pump as well? Making sure you are getting 12 volts?

Thanks

Did u use standard "butt conectors". Blows ( no pun) my mine to put electrical connectors inside a fuel tank. I bought an Airtex on line and it went bad in two days, hope this one is better.
