It had 65k I’ll do them sooner than later. Do you have any recommendations?

Regrettably I have gotten ride of the ole’ second gen and finally went out and bought myself a 4th gen. IMG_2525.MP4

Very interesting.... I will have to look into doing this, they have had more than enough time and chances to get this taken care of.

I was never much a fan of the air dog systems. A couple of my buddies had the same issues with the same pump. They both in turn trashed their vp's. Yeah that is a cigar box

Not too sure of the year it was on the truck when I bought it but it’s the block replacement one. These are the photos of the destruction of that bearing. It sounds like you have the whole system with the dual filters, if I’m not mistaken those were fine. I think the one I had was the second generation.

Alright, for anyone still following this thread heres an update. Took the truck to a local shop and had them do all the work i needed ( started a job working third shift makes it hard to work on things when its decent out) They threw on a new pump and sent me on my way. paid an arm and a leg ( i had them take care of some other issues as well). so thats the good side of things. its now close to the end of feburary and xdp still has yet to get me a refund on my bad pump i bought through them. they now have the pump i bought and my old pump. highly irritating knowing i have a $1500 set of pumps

Just a heads up depending on which gen of the raptor pump you have they only have a single sealed bearing. In short the seal on mine went and caused me a lot of headaches because diesel was able to leak into the motor windings and trashed it. I have since upgraded to the fass titanium signature series 125 gph with the extended filters. I was able to get rid of the stock filter but do make sure you replace the bolts if you choose to go this route you’ll blow your intake gasket. I push 19-20 psi all day with no problems.

I don’t consider any thing as non productive. You ask me something that I should have put in my original post. I do appreciate all the help you guys have given me on this. As far as xdp goes when I approached them about the pump as far as who rebuilt it and where it was tested was inconclusive they didn’t want to give me an answer. I’m just going to send it back for warranty, wait for my money back and buy another from somewhere else. Do you guys have any reputable sources I tried looking for the list @moparman1973 had posted awhile ago but I can’t seem to find it.

Pretty sure about the wiring John I do appreciate the advice though. The wiring is good I cleaned the terminals and put some dielectric grease just to be sure.

Is the p0252 another vp death code? I haven’t been able to find out much info on it. They all say the same thing fuel metering control valve. Yeah I did pay with a cc I’m just kinda upset that they want to play games like the pump wasn’t even a week old and xdp is blaming a “REMAN” injection failure on me. I understand I don’t know much about these trucks but I’ll be dammed if I get ripped off.

What’s going on guys? So as per my last topic the vp44 was my issue for whatever reason my edge wasn’t allowing my ecu to throw any dtc after figuring that out I found the p1628 or whatever the vp death code is can’t remember off the top of my head. Alright, replaced the pump with a reman vp44 from xdp and new fuel filters. Got the truck primed and she took off. Ran for about a day or so and then boom no fuel to the injectors again. Even though I do not like doing it I tried anyways I gave it a breath of ether and cracked the injector lines and still no fuel. Okay fine play hard. Towed the tr

Actually now that I think about it the white smoke burned my eyes. And it would dump a lot like I couldn’t see the road from my house which is about 30~ away from where I was revving it up

I’m not too certain on the white smoke anymore as it’s been too long I can’t remember. the scan tool is from autozone I believe. It allows me to check pid’s dtc’s and some other stuff as well, the edge cts2 monitor also has a code reader feature as it plugs right into the obd2 port. as per the holifex sensor or what I assume that is. It has two wires that go from the back center of the pump in between all the injector ports and they are the top set of wires that go into the control box. The two wires directly below them looking at the control box are the ones that dry rotte

@Mopar1973Man Hello , my name is Eric I’m new to this whole diesel thing so go easy on me I’ll try to giv as much info as I can. I bought this truck beginning of February and it needed some much needed tlc the kid that had it before me left it it kinda rough shape. I replaced a lot and a new coat of paint and some body work to fix the rust, new lift pump and a new tuner with a monitor to top it off. (Edge juice with attitude cts2 monitor). Recently I’ve had some issues I can’t quite explain , a couple of weeks ago the truck would act like it was in limp mode it was almost like
