99 confused

Ok here is the most recent news on our dodge. We received and placed the draw straw, it fixed some of the issues. The most recent fix was the injection pump, it took us a while to save up, but it is now on the truck. It still has some front end work and brakes to be fixed, but it is running better then it ever has. It needs fine tuning but it starts and runs good. Thanks for everybody's help, if more questions come up I will post them. Thanks again especially, driply and mopar1973man, you guys were the most important part in this fix.

Ok the draw straw is on it's way.

Thank you

Ok we are having some real bad weather here, we will call them tomorrow and get a price and what needs to be done.

Ok thank you. No major modifications needed then.

Ok this is all good info. We will look into both Air Dog and Vulcan and decide which one will work the best for our application.

Ok we will look into the draw straw. Thank you What one should we get on vulcan, this s a stock truck it will be used as a truck and to pull a fifth wheel and maybe gooseneck trailer. It also has a airtex lift pump.

So the draw straw will bypass the screwed up sliding mechanism?

Ok I will try that. The book shows the same module for gas as diesel and with no pump on it all it has to do is read the fuel level and allow the lift pump access to the fuel.

We can find one for a gas engine would that work. Does any one know why it has to slide up and down cause we can fix it in position, but not sure if that will work. And no it does not it moves everwhere, when we took it out it wasn't even connected to the bottom it was just moving around the screws were in the plastic part and the metal part was just there not attached.

This truck is all stock it doesn't have the retrofit pump it still has the stock sending unit with no pump.

So where do we find a fuel module aka sending unit for our truck. I can't find any on line and it is so screwed up that we think it is causing all the fuel issues. It is not the pump, it is the pick up unit with the float.

We have an airtex on the block, just didn't know if a gas one would work or if you can run both of them together, or how you would get the power to the pump, if that's the only one we can get.

Ok we have probably a stupid question. He got the tank out and the fuel module out and the module looks horrible, the screws on the sides that work the slide movement will not work, the metal has no support where it is suppose to be together, and it has been sitting on the tank bottom. We were wondering if a gas sending unit is the same as the diesel one, I have looked for one on line and can only find the gas one or one with the pump, we don't need the one with the pump, it is oem (carter). Any help will be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.

Ok here is the latest, as soon as the rain stops he is going to check voltage on the wires coming into the lift pump then he is going to check the tank and see if there is any of the diesel crap in it, from there he is going to do the stuff you talked to him about. Hopefully that will get us some relief for now and allow us to start thinking about the VP and how we are going to fix such an expensive item.
