High Mileage Alumiduty

Buddy that works at a diesel shop sent me a pic of this. Came in for a LPFP replacement. 261k miles already.

I assume that is a '17 made in '16. Wonder why the fuel pump went out so quickly.......

Id like to know if that person has had any other issues. Most miles I’ve seen so far.

Zero issues till that point. Bone stock. Hauls high end sports/exotic cars with it.

I dunno, maybe because it had to stay running for 261,000 miles!

The LPFP isn't too expensive though, is it? Just a normal in tank pump?

Yep, just a normal in tank pump. Might not be "cheap" but it surely isn't the cost of a HPFP.

That's probably the case because that truck is doing what it's designed to do, stay out in front of a load.

I imagine running constantly for 2 years straight will do that to a fuel pump.

Let's call this 24 months old. 730 days. 261000/730=357 (that's 357 miles a day, every day for 730 days straight). Divide 357 miles by an average of say 60 mph and this vehicle was driving roughly 6 hours a day at 60 mph for 730 days straight. Can you say preparation H?

From the pic that paint still looks brand new. That’s a ridiculous amount of miles in that time period. Hard working SD for sure.
