So the edge fuel pressure sensor is mounted right at the vp inlet. I see no snubber. This is the way it was when i bought the truck. Can i just add a snubber or needle valve in front of the sensor ? Ideally the sensor should be mounted further back in the feed line correct ? 

On a side note. I plan to run the big line kit to the Vp when i move the DDRP  pump to the frame rail with 1/2 inch lines once winters over. Should I just wait and put a T and needle valve in the 1/2 inch feed line ?

I would get the big line kit from vulcan that includes the T and put the needle valve there.  http://www.vulcanperformance.com/category-s/182.htm

That is what i was thinking better to do it with the line kit.

Thanks

 

 

Also relocate the sensor away from the VP44. It's not the engine vibration that kills it but the close proximity of the VP44 is what kills sensors. I'm running both a needle valve and a ISSPro sintered snubber. The needle valve is a safety shutoff in case the tube is damaged its not used for snubbing.  Then relocated a total of 5 tubing feet from my tap point. I'm in my second year of zero issues.

Yup will get the line kit in the next month or so. Burned 1st tank of fuel threw the truck and ive noticed since under half tank the pressure reading on the edge has gone up. like often im seeing 15-17 psi cruising 18-20 idle. On a hill this am 12 psi boost in 6th was still 14-15psi.

Above 1/2 tank was like 13-14 cruise and 11-12 over 10psi boost and 17-18 idle.

 

So like a 2 psi increase across board and more stable. odd. 
temps been around -10C all week.

Sensor might be failing. Would be a good idea to test that against a mechanical gauge to verify. It could be a difference in fuel too how it was winterized. Still I would verify against a mechanical gauge to verify accuracy. 

Yup i have a new mechanical gauge and pod for column from a previous truck. Noway im paying $200 for a replacement edge sensor.
