I PM'd you my number. I'll text you later today after my morning Doctor's appt... I am in South Anchorage too. As I said in my PM, I have Forscan and an OBDII reader so we can look at fuel pressures if you want to as well... Assuming you haven't done so already.

Even if mine was making a noise when running, I doubt I could hear it over the motor. My truck even idling is pretty loud for some reason and it's 100% stock.

To close this thread up. I went over and met with JS. FWIW, our trucks are identical... 2015 Platinum trim, Tuxedo black, long bed....

Our trucks sound the same KOEO (although he said his was louder earlier) and I ran Forscan on it. I made a fuel table that tracked low pressure fuel events, commanded fuel pressure, actual fuel pressure, and low pressure KPA... All were perfect or at least what I was getting on my truck. We both had no low pressure events stored which is great news.

I'm sure JS will chime in with how his drive to work goes tomorrow in it.

It was great meeting another FTEr...

Thanks to Dak for the assistance. Truck is running great and no issues. No noises either other than the standard sound. The sound went away on it's own. So I guess in hind sight, make sure the o-rings on the lower fuel filter (both the main and yellow drain O-rings), make sure the lower unit is tightened to the stopping point, and make sure your hoses under the hood are fully connected and if you still get a humming noise after the purge procedure, don't freak out and worry about it. As Dak noted, the truck takes a long time to purge the air out of the system and the noise will eventually go away on it's own.

Thanks again for all of the assistance. I love the FTE support.
