FYI fuel disconnect line is 1/2 inch. Posted as 3/8 or 5/16 multiple places. Still waiting for UPS man to deliver pump so we can get to grandma's for christmas.

 

Sure hope this will be a MERRY Christmas for you!!! Good Luck. I'd ask Santa for a Scan Gauge II for Christmas tho.....

 

Thanks. Sadly the fuel pump didn't come in time ( even paid extra for shipping) so we won't get to spend Christmas with grandma.

I do have a $30 bluetooth OBD and a $6 app for the android which seems to do everything that the scangauge will do. Pretty cool device.

 

Sorry about that what a bummer. Maybe you were not supposed to be on the road you never know.

 

Thanks and I agree.

 

You dont have to pop any line to actually replace the fuel pump itself. No need to replace the entire HFCM.

 

Doc could you clarify. I thought it was necessary to pull the HFCM take it apart and put new pump into it?

 

Steve look on the forward end of your HFCM (opposite of the fuel filter cap) and there is a set of wires connected to a round head (thats actually the fuel pump) with i think 3 screws in it. The HFCM is just a housing really, you can replace the actual pump without buying a whole new HFCM. Search for a 6.0 fuel pump on ebay and you will see what it looks like. Its a black tube about 1 1/2 inch in dia with a flat dome head on it.

 

Was this pressure KOER or KOEO, I would start with filters, 1 bad tank of fuel can plug a filter. If KOEO pressure comes to 55+ & KOER is 40 then it could be filters or HFCM inlet restriction (tank pickup plugged) Hate to see ya change pump & still have same problem.

Doc, I have the pump by itself already coming. Just wondered if there was an easier way to put it in. Actually seems pretty easy to yank the whole hfcm.

[quote=Jimbob8;11198350]Was this pressure KOER or KOEO, /quote]

I really don't know the difference. Pressure was taken at fuel test port. Surprisingly the fuel pump is about the same cost as a premium set of fuel filters.

 

Gotta love google. Pressure is the same with engine off or on.

 

Fuel pump most likely, I would pull unit & do on bench, you can clean everything & no crap dripping in your face. Also cycle pump a few times before starting to clear air. Good luck

Here are links to the individual pump and to a diagram on the fuel pump and where it resides in the HFCM (this was in your other thread on the subject):

Thought I would add these to this thread since people may find it w/ the search feature.


Where did you get your fuel pump from? Did you pay less that $199? Any Ford part numbers (ie other than HFP964)?

 

Thanks Jim.

Got the pump from Walbro 255 Fuel Pump : Walbro 255LPH : Performance Fuel Pumps : Cheap Fuel Pump : Discount Fuel Pump : Ford : Chevy : Chevrolet : Range Rover : Dodge Ram Awesome prices on pumps. $80 for one that would handle up to 450hp.

Thanks for the documents bismic.

 

Their drop down menu did not show a pump for a 6.0L diesel. Did you call them to get the proper pump?
