That's what we call: </span> </span> <span> Real Water Separation™ </span> <span> . </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> What Is "Real Water Separation"? <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> Many traditional water separators rely on a coalescing design. You know the type—they're usually the filters with a drain valve on the bottom. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> These filters allow water to collect at the bottom of the housing, where it's supposed to be drained periodically. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> The problem? <br/> <br/> For one, the water is still inside the filter housing. Secondly, a huge percentage of owners simply forget to drain their filters consistently. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> Our approach is different. The microglass element in the </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/details?id=20935" target="_blank"> XWS3002 </a> <span> <span>   </span> </span> <span> and </span> <span> <span>   </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/details?id=21090" target="_blank"> XWS3002XL </a> <span> <span> physically traps and retains the water within the filter itself. </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> That's why FASS water separators </span> <span> <span> </span> </span> <span> don't need a drain—t </span> <span> here's no pool of water sitting in the filter waiting to be drained. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The water is captured inside the element! <br/> </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> SGS Laboratories Verified It </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> Independent testing performed by </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/fass-fuel-filters-vs-the-competion-3rd-party-test-results" target="_blank"> SGS Laboratories </a> <span> <span> </span> </span> <span> verified that FASS Fuel Systems remove: Over 99% of the water found in diesel fuel. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> That's why you'll often hear us talk about </span> </span> <span> Real Water Separation </span> <span> .

If your truck is stock or mildly modified, our 100GPH, 140GPH, or 165GPH systems are exactly what you'll need—and nearly silent. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> High Flow = More Noise <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> Remember this: a truck that legitimately needs </span> </span> <strong> 220+ GPH of fuel flow </strong> <span> is rarely a quiet truck to begin with. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke trucks that need 220+ GPH of fuel flow almost always have: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Straight-piped exhausts, bed stacks, hood stacks, etc </span> </li> <li> <span> Large injectors/injection pumps </span> </li> <li> <span> Aggressive tuning </span> </li> <li> <span> Big single turbos or compound turbos <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> At that point, a little fuel pump noise is the least noticeable thing. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> Properly Sized Systems Stay Quiet <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> For stock and mildly modified trucks, the ideal FASS Fuel Systems will almost always be: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/drop-in-series" target="_blank"> Drop-In Fuel Systems </a> <span> <span> (utilizes stock in-tank pump, literally </span> </span> <span> zero </span> <span> <span> detectable noise) </span> </span> </li> <li> <span> 100GPH </span> </li> <li> <span> 140GPH </span> </li> <li> <span> 165GPH <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> When matched correctly to the application and </span> </span> <span> installed properly </span> <span> , these systems deliver industry-leading filtration while maintaining the quiet operation FASS is known for. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> In fact, many customers are surprised by just how quiet a properly installed FASS system really is. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> Watch the Video and Decide for Yourself <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> Rather than taking our word for it, watch the video. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> Brad and Josh demonstrate exactly what a </span> </span> <strong> 140GPH Titanium Signature Series No-Drop PLUS </strong> <span> sounds like on a daily-driven 2024 F-450 and explain the factors that influence fuel system noise. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> If you've been hesitant about upgrading because of something you heard online, this video should change your perspective. </span> </p> </div> Tue, 09 Jun 2026 20:40:52 GMT http://www.fassride.com/are-fass-fuel-systems-loud thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/we-dumped-water-into-the-fuel-tank-of-a-2024-f-450 Watch Brad Ekstam and Josh Thornton pour water into a 2024 F-450 fuel tank and see how FASS filters remove it! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> <span> Most diesel owners know that water is one of the </span> </span> <span> worst </span> <span> contaminants that can enter a fuel system.

Yes. Contact FASS to match the right GPH setup for your build, injectors, pump, and tuning upgrades. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> As your diesel build evolves, it’s a common question: </span> <span> “Can I upgrade my existing FASS Fuel System for more fuel flow?” <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The answer is yes—you absolutely can. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> If you’ve added performance upgrades like larger injectors, an upgraded injection pump, or more aggressive tuning, your fuel demand has likely increased. <br/> <br/> In those cases, stepping up to a higher GPH (gallons per hour) FASS system—or upgrading components within your current system—can help ensure your engine gets the fuel it needs. </span> </h3> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/d0fc1429/dms3rep/multi/Can+I+Upgrade+My+Existing+FASS+Fuel+System+for+More+Fuel+Flow+%285%29.png" alt="Can I Upgrade My Existing FASS Fuel System for More Fuel Flow?"/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> When Should You Consider Upgrading? <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> The vast majority of FASS Fuel System owners have </span> </span> <span> <span> plenty </span> </span> <span> of fuel flow but if you’ve made upgrades such as: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Larger injectors </span> </li> <li> <span> Upgraded CP3 or dual CP3 setups </span> </li> <li> <span> Bigger turbo(s) </span> </li> <li> <span> Aggressive custom tuning <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> Then your current FASS system might not be sized appropriately. To be clear, this </span> </span> <span> isn't </span> <span> <span> common—FASS Fuel Systems are overbuilt and conservatively rated. For example, a 165GPH FASS Fuel System for a 6.7 Cummins might be rated for 900hp, but will typically support 1,000-1,100+hp without skipping a beat. </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> However, if your fuel and tuning setup has managed to "outrun" your existing FASS setup, you might benefit from increasing your GPH. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Upgrading to a higher-flow system can help maintain: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Consistent fuel pressure </span> </li> <li> <span> Proper injector performance </span> </li> <li> <span> Reliable operation under load </span> </li> <li> <span> Ample fuel delivery at higher horsepower levels </span> </li> </ul> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/d0fc1429/dms3rep/multi/Can+I+Upgrade+My+Existing+FASS+Fuel+System+for+More+Fuel+Flow+%284%29.png" alt=" Upgrading GPH on a FASS Fuel System "/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> What Does an Upgrade Involve? <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> Upgrading a FASS Fuel System isn’t always as simple as swapping one part (though can might be).

Unlike vehicle-specific kits, this system is built to integrate seamlessly into a wide range of diesel applications. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> That means you get: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> <span> A </span> </span> <strong> compact, universal design </strong> <span> <span> for custom installs </span> </span> </li> <li> <span> Easy integration into existing fuel systems </span> </li> <li> <span> Proven FASS fuel air separation technology <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> It’s the perfect solution for diesel owners who need performance without being locked into a specific vehicle kit. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> Advanced Fuel Air Separation Technology <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> At the core of every FASS system is its patented ability to remove harmful elements from your fuel—and the Universal Drop-In Series is no exception. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> This system works to eliminate: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Air and vapor </strong> <span> <span> that reduce combustion efficiency </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Water </strong> <span> <span> that leads to corrosion and injector damage </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Particulates and debris </strong> <span> that wear down critical components <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> The result? Improved fuel lubricity by AT LEAST 10%, and triple the service life out of your injection system! </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> Built to Protect Your Injection System <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> Modern diesel injection systems operate under extremely high pressure with tight tolerances. Even minor contamination can lead to major repair bills. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The Universal Drop-In Series helps: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> <span> Extend </span> </span> <strong> injector life </strong> </li> <li> <span> <span> Protect </span> </span> <strong> high-pressure fuel pumps </strong> </li> <li> <span> Reduce the risk of costly fuel system failures <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Think of it as insurance for one of the most expensive systems on your truck. </span> </p> <h5> <br/> </h5> <h5> <span> Consistent Fuel Delivery You Can Count On <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> Performance isn’t just about horsepower—it’s about consistency. The Universal Drop-In Series ensures your engine receives a steady, reliable supply of clean fuel under all conditions. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> That means: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Improved throttle response </span> </li> <li> <span> More consistent power delivery </span> </li> <li> <span> Better overall engine efficiency <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Whether you’re towing, daily driving, or pushing your truck to the limit, consistent fuel flow makes all the difference. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> The FASS Difference <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> FASS Diesel Fuel Systems has built its reputation on one simple principle: </span> </span> <span> pure fuel equals better performance and longer engine life. </span> <strong> <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> The Universal Drop-In Series continues that legacy by combining: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Industry-leading filtration </span> </li> <li> <span> Patented air/vapor separation technology </span> </li> <li> <span> Durable, American-made components <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> It’s not just another fuel system—it’s a smarter way to protect and optimize your diesel engine. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h5> <span> Ready to Upgrade Your Fuel System? <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> If you’re looking to protect your injection system while optimizing MPG and power, the </span> </span> <strong> FASS Universal Drop-In Series Fuel/Air Separation System </strong> <span> is ready to deliver. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> Explore the full product here:  </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/details?id=21376" target="_blank"> https://www.fassride.com/details?id=21376 </a> </p> </div> Wed, 18 Mar 2026 16:56:33 GMT http://www.fassride.com/introducing-the-fass-universal-drop-in-series-fuel-air-separation-system thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/your-2017-l5p-duramaxs-stock-lift-pump-is-actually-pretty-great Jake Hopkins from FASS explains why the 2017+ L5P Duramax stock lift pump flows plenty of fuel—and why better filtration is the REAL upgrade. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Every once in a while someone expects me to say something different than what I’m about to say. But here’s the truth: <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> If you own a 2017+ L5P Duramax, your factory in-tank lift pump is actually pretty solid. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> I work at FASS Diesel Fuel Systems, and yes — we build aftermarket fuel systems for a living. But the reality is that the L5P Duramax came from the factory with one of the better fuel supply setups GM has ever used. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The stock lift pump on these trucks provides surprisingly strong fuel flow, even when the truck is tuned or lightly modified. And that leads to an important point. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> The Real Problem Isn’t Fuel Flow <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> When people start looking at aftermarket fuel systems, they often assume the biggest benefit is </span> </span> <span> increased fuel flow </span> <span> . On older trucks, that was often true. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> But with the 2017+ L5P Duramax, the factory pump already moves a healthy amount of fuel. Even many tuned trucks still aren’t pushing past the limits of that pump. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> So if the pump flows enough fuel… what’s the problem? The answer is fuel </span> </span> <span> quality </span> <span> . </span> <strong> <br/> </strong> <strong> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> <span> Modern high-pressure common rail injection systems are extremely sensitive to contamination. Tiny debris, water in fuel, and air intrusion can slowly damage injectors and pumps over time. That’s where the </span> </span> <span> real </span> <span> <span> improvement comes from. </span> </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> Why We Developed the L5P Drop-In Fuel System <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> At FASS, we looked at the L5P platform and asked a simple question: </span> </span> <span> “If the factory pump already flows enough fuel, what do these trucks actually need?” </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> The answer was better filtration and fuel conditioning, not necessarily more flow. That’s exactly why we developed the </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/drop-in-series" target="_blank"> FASS Drop-In Series Fuel System </a> <span> for the 2017+ L5P Duramax. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> Instead of replacing the factory lift pump, our </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/drop-in-series" target="_blank"> Drop-In System </a> <span> <span> works alongside it, dramatically improving the quality of fuel reaching the injection system. </span> </span> <span> <br/> </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> What the Drop-In System Actually Improves <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> With the </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/drop-in-series" target="_blank"> FASS Drop-In Fuel System </a> <span> <span> installed, L5P owners gain: </span> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> 2-micron absolute filtration </span> </li> <li> <span> Air and vapor separation </span> </li> <li> <span> Over 99% water removal </span> </li> <li> <span> <span> Improved fuel lubricity by </span> </span> <span> at least 10% </span> </li> <li> <span> TRIPLE the life out of your injection system <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> All while retaining the factory pump’s strong fuel flow. This makes it an ideal solution for stock trucks and many modified trucks as well. </span> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/d0fc1429/dms3rep/multi/Your+2017-+L5P+Duramax-s+Stock+Lift+Pump+Is+Actually+Pretty+Great_Image+1.png" alt="Your 2017+ L5P Duramax’s Stock Lift Pump Is Actually Pretty Great_Image 2"/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> When Do You Actually Need More Fuel Flow? </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> Now, if you’re building a high-horsepower L5P with large injectors, big turbo upgrades, or competition-level power, then yes — additional fuel flow can absolutely become necessary. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> But the majority of daily driven a </span> <span> nd tuned L5Ps simply don’t reach that point. For those trucks, improving fuel filtration and conditioning is the upgrade that makes the most sense. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> The Bottom Line </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> The 2017+ L5P Duramax factory lift pump deserves more credit than it gets. It flows plenty of fuel for most stock and moderately modified trucks. What these engines truly benefit from iscleaner, air-free fuel. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> That’s exactly why we designed the </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/drop-in-series" target="_blank"> FASS Drop-In Fuel System </a> <span> — to dramatically improve filtration while letting the factory pump continue doing what it already does well. Sometimes the best upgrade isn’t replacing something that works. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> It’s improving what matters most. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> </div> Fri, 06 Mar 2026 17:48:28 GMT http://www.fassride.com/your-2017-l5p-duramaxs-stock-lift-pump-is-actually-pretty-great thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/can-i-purchase-individual-fass-diesel-fuel-system-components Can you buy individual FASS Fuel System components?

Instead of hype, exaggeration, or unrealistic claims, the ROI Series focuses on the real-world return on investment of installing a FASS Diesel Fuel System. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Our latest ROI Series video takes a close look at the 2017+ 6.6L L5P Duramax and explores how a FASS Fuel System can help reduce long-term ownership costs through improved fuel filtration, air/vapor separation, and extended injection system life. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> What This ROI Video Covers <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> In this video, we discuss: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Why fuel contamination is one of the leading causes of injector and pump failures </span> </li> <li> <span> How FASS filtration improves fuel quality and lubricity </span> </li> <li> <span> The potential cost savings associated with preventing injector and fuel system repairs </span> </li> <li> <span> <span> Why a FASS Fuel System is better viewed as a </span> </span> <strong> reliability and protection upgrade </strong> <span> , not just a performance part </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> The focus is simple: </span> <strong> what a FASS Fuel System can realistically save an L5P Duramax owner over time </strong> <span> , based on component protection and reduced risk—not unrealistic horsepower gains or exaggerated fuel economy claims. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> Why ROI Matters for L5P Duramax Owners <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> The 6.6L L5P Duramax is a powerful, capable engine, but its high-pressure fuel system is also extremely sensitive to contamination. Injectors and pumps are expensive, and even one failure can quickly outweigh the cost of a quality fuel filtration upgrade. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> By removing air, water, and debris before fuel reaches the injection system, a FASS Fuel System helps: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Protect injectors and high-pressure pumps </span> </li> <li> <span> Improve fuel lubricity </span> </li> <li> <span> Reduce the likelihood of costly fuel-system-related repairs <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> That protection is where the real return on investment lives. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> Watch the Video <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> The </span> </span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8eOIystR8k" target="_blank"> full ROI Series video </a> <span> for the 2017+ L5P Duramax is embedded in this blog post.

Compare the Drop-In Series, Titanium Signature Series, PLUS, and No-Drop options in this quick article! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> The 6.7L Powerstroke is one of the most advanced diesel engines Ford has ever built, but like all modern high-pressure common-rail diesels, it’s extremely sensitive to fuel quality. Clean, air-free fuel is critical to injector life, fuel pump health, and long-term reliability—which is exactly why so many 6.7 Powerstroke owners upgrade to FASS Diesel Fuel Systems. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> With multiple flow rates, system styles, and installation options available, choosing the right FASS system may seem overwhelming at first. This guide breaks it down simply so you can find the best fit for your truck and how you use it. <br/> <br/> FASS Fuel Systems for the 6.7 Powerstroke include both our Titanium Signature Series variations (PLUS, No-Drop, etc); and the Drop-In Series. While the Titanium Signature Series Fuel Systems provide both fuel filtration </span> <strong> and </strong> <span> flow, the Drop-In Series Fuel System is a bolt-in filtration unit that relies on your stock in-tank pump to push fuel through it. <br/> <br/> Don't worry, we'll explain why you'd choose one system over the other below. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> Step 1: Choosing the Right Flow Rate (GPH) <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> Unless you're choosing our </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/details?id=47294" target="_blank"> Drop-In Series Fuel System </a> <span> that utilizes your factory tank for fuel flow (more on that below); you'll need to select the right flow rate. <br/> <br/> Flow rate—measured in gallons per hour (GPH)—is the most important starting point. The goal is to choose enough fuel flow for your setup, without oversizing. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Stock &amp; Lightly Modified Trucks </strong> <span> <br/> Most stock or lightly tuned 6.7 Powerstrokes do not require increased fuel volume. These trucks benefit most from improved </span> <strong> filtration, air/vapor separation, and fuel conditioning </strong> <span> , not raw flow. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Moderately Modified Trucks </strong> <span> <br/> Trucks with tuning, exhaust upgrades, or mild injector changes may benefit from higher flow to support increased fuel demand under load. </span> </li> <li> <strong> High-Horsepower / Competition Builds </strong> <span> <br/> Trucks with large injectors, aggressive tuning, or competition use require significantly more fuel volume and consistent pressure. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> FASS offers multiple flow rates to match each of these needs, ensuring your system is properly sized for performance </span> <strong> and </strong> <span> <span> quiet operation. </span> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> Step 2: Drop-In Series vs. Full FASS Fuel Systems <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <h5> <span> FASS Drop-In Series – Perfect for Stock &amp;

This guide will help you quickly understand the differences and choose the right setup for your truck. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> Choosing the Right Flow Rate (GPH) </span> </h5> <h5> <br/> </h5> <p> <span> <span> Choosing the right Gallon-Per-Hour (GPH) or flow rate for your 6.4 Powerstroke's fuel system is a crucial but </span> </span> <span> easy </span> <span> <span> step. The more power your truck makes, the higher GPH system (more fuel) you'll need. </span> </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> Here at FASS, GPH ratings for our </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/FORD/F250-POWERSTROKE/2008-2010-64l" target="_blank"> 6.4 Powerstroke Fuel Systems </a> <span> <span> break down like this: </span> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Stock to 600hp: </strong> <span> <span> 100GPH </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> 600hp to 1,000hp: </strong> <span> <span> 165GPH </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> 900hp to 1,200hp: </strong> <span> <span> 250GPH </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> 1,200hp to 1,500hp: </strong> <span> <span> 290GPH </span> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> <span> To select the right GPH FASS Fuel System, simply choose the GPH that's rated for the horsepower your truck makes. </span> <span> <br/> </span> <strong> <br/> </strong> <strong> Please note: </strong> <strong> </strong> <span> <span> If you have performance modifications planned, you can absolutely install a higher-flow (more GPH) FASS Fuel System than you currently need. It will </span> </span> <span> not </span> <span> hurt anything. However, you may notice increased fuel pump noise; due to the higher volume of fuel being moved. <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> Why a FASS Fuel System Makes Sense for the 6.4 Powerstroke <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> From the factory, the 6.4 Powerstroke fuel system does an acceptable job—but it still allows </span> </span> <strong> air, vapor, water, and fine debris </strong> <span> to pass through. Over time, those contaminants contribute to injector wear, inconsistent fuel pressure, and expensive failures. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> A FASS Fuel System improves reliability by: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> <span> Removing </span> </span> <strong> air and vapor </strong> <span> <span> from the fuel supply </span> </span> </li> <li> <span> <span> Filtering fuel down to </span> </span> <strong> 2 microns absolute </strong> </li> <li> <span> <span> Removing over </span> </span> <strong> 99% of free water </strong> </li> <li> <span> Delivering consistent, positive fuel pressure <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> The result is smoother operation, quieter injectors, and significantly improved fuel system longevity. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> Titanium Signature Series for the 6.4 Powerstroke <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> The FASS Titanium Signature Series is the foundation of the FASS lineup and an excellent upgrade for most 6.4 Powerstroke owners. </span> </p> <p> <span> Key features include: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Brass pipe thread fittings </span> </li> <li> <span> Industry-leading air/vapor separation </span> </li> <li> <span> 2-micron absolute filtration </span> </li> <li> <span> Proven durability for daily driving, towing, and work use </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> This option is ideal for stock or lightly modified trucks where reliability and injector protection are the top priorities. </span> </p> </div> <div> <img

Learn what to look for before you buy, including maintenance, transmission issues, and signs of hard use to avoid costly surprises. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> <span> Shopping for a used 6.7L Cummins Ram? </span> </span> <strong> Good choice </strong> <span> . The 6.7 Cummins has earned its reputation as one of the most capable and durable diesel engines on the road—but like any used diesel, the truck you’re looking at can be either a dream buy or a money pit depending on how it was treated. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> Here’s what to look for (and what to be cautious of) before you hand over your cash. </span> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/d0fc1429/dms3rep/multi/What+should+you+look+for+when+buying+a+used+6.7+Cummins_FASS+Diesel+Fuel+Systems.png" alt="What should you look for when buying a used 6.7 Cummins_FASS Diesel Fuel Systems"/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <span> 1. Maintenance History Matters More Than Mileage <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> <span> First things first: </span> </span> <strong> don’t panic over mileage </strong> <span> . A well-maintained 6.7 Cummins with 200k+ miles can be a far better buy than a neglected truck with 90k. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> What you do want to see: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Regular oil changes </span> </li> <li> <span> Fuel filter service intervals being followed </span> </li> <li> <span> Transmission services (especially on 68RFE trucks) </span> </li> <li> <span> Cooling system maintenance <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Service records are gold. If the seller can’t provide any history, ask detailed questions. How the owner talks about maintenance often tells you more than the odometer. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> 2. Pay Attention to the Fuel System <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> The fuel system is one of the most important—and expensive—areas on a 6.7 Cummins. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Things to ask or check: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Has the truck ever had injector issues? </span> </li> <li> <span> Has the high-pressure fuel pump been replaced? </span> </li> <li> <span> Is there an aftermarket fuel filtration or lift pump system installed? <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> Trucks equipped with </span> </span> <strong> upgraded fuel filtration or lift pumps </strong> <span> <span> are often a good sign. It usually means the owner cared about fuel quality and injector life. On the flip side, bone-stock fuel systems on higher-mileage trucks aren’t a deal breaker—but they’re something to budget for later. </span> </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> 3. Watch for Signs of Hard Use (or Abuse) <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> Many 6.7 Cummins trucks live hard lives towing, hauling, or being tuned aggressively—and that’s not always a bad thing if they were maintained properly. Still, keep an eye out for red flags: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Excessive smoke under light throttle </span> </li> <li> <span> Rough idle or knocking sounds </span> </li> <li> <span> Harsh or delayed transmission shifts </span> </li> <li> <span> Aftermarket tuning with no supporting upgrades <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> If a truck has been tuned, ask: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> What tuning was used? </span> </li> <li> <span> Was it run daily or occasionally? </span> </li> <li> <span> Were supporting mods added? </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> A responsibly modified truck can be a great buy—but poorly tuned trucks can hide expensive problems. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> 4. Check the Emissions System (or What’s Left of It) <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> Depending on where you live and the truck’s history, emissions equipment can be a big factor. </span> </p> <p> <span> Look for: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Warning lights or limp-mode history </span> </li> <li> <span> Signs of frequent regen issues </span> </li> <li> <span> DEF system problems on newer trucks <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Even if emissions equipment is intact and functioning, ask how often the truck regens and whether the owner ever had to address DPF or EGR issues. These systems can be costly if neglected. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> 5. Transmission Health Is Huge <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> A strong Cummins is only as good as the transmission behind it. </span> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> 68RFE </strong> <span> : Ask about fluid changes, upgrades, or rebuilds </span> </li> <li> <strong> Aisin </strong> <span> : Generally stout, but still check service history <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> On a test drive, pay attention to: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Slipping or flare shifts </span> </li> <li> <span> Harsh downshifts </span> </li> <li> <span> Shudder under load <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Transmission repairs add up fast—this is one area you don’t want surprises. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> 6. Stock vs. Modified: Neither Is Automatically Better <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> Some buyers only want stock trucks. Others want modified ones. The truth? Condition matters more than configuration. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Stock trucks: </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Usually easier to inspect </span> </li> <li> <span> Fewer unknowns </span> </li> <li> <span> Often great long-term platforms <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <strong> Modified trucks: </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Can save you money on parts you’d add anyway </span> </li> <li> <span> May already have upgraded suspension, fueling, or driveline </span> </li> <li> <span> Require more careful inspection <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Neither is “right” or “wrong”— </span> <strong> just know what you’re buying </strong> <span> . </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <span> 7. Think Long-Term, Not Just the Test Drive <br/> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <strong> Ask yourself: </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Am I buying this to keep for years or flip later? </span> </li> <li> <span> Will I tow, daily drive, or build it? </span> </li> <li> <span> Do I want reliability or performance first? <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> A used 6.7 Cummins can last a very long time—but only if you start with a solid foundation and plan ahead. </span> </p> <h3> <span> <br/> Final Thoughts <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> Buying a used 6.7 Cummins doesn’t have to be intimidating. Focus on </span> </span> <strong> maintenance history, fuel system health, transmission behavior, and signs of responsible ownership </strong> <span> . Take your time, ask questions, and don’t be afraid to walk away if something feels off. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> A good 6.7 Cummins will reward you with years of torque, reliability, and smiles per gallon—and when you find the right one, you’ll know it. </span> </p> </div> Fri, 02 Jan 2026 19:57:00 GMT http://www.fassride.com/what-should-you-look-for-when-buying-a-used-6-7-cummins thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/what-fass-fuel-system-do-i-need-for-my-6-0-powerstroke Which FASS Fuel System do you need for your 6.0 Powerstroke?

Check out this short article to learn how proper GPH sizing and correct installation ensure silent, reliable operation. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> <span> A question we hear more often than we'd like is: </span> </span> <strong> “Are FASS fuel systems loud?” <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> <span> The short, honest answer is no — in fact, FASS Diesel Fuel Systems are the quietest diesel fuel systems on the market. </span> </span> <strong> Period. <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> For years, FASS has set the industry standard for low-noise operation with what we call Whisper Quiet Technology. No competitor consistently matches FASS when it comes to minimizing pump noise while still delivering superior filtration and fuel flow. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> So why do rumors about “loud FASS systems” still circulate? Let’s break down where those stories come from — and why they’re almost always avoidable. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> FASS Whisper Quiet Technology: Built to Be the Quietest <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> FASS fuel systems are engineered from the ground up to reduce noise. From internal pump design to vibration isolation and fuel flow control, every component is optimized to keep operation smooth and quiet. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> When installed correctly and sized properly, a FASS system is often quieter than the factory lift pump — to the point where many drivers forget it’s even there. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> The #1 Cause of “Loud” Fuel Systems: Oversizing GPH <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> The most common reason someone experiences extra noise is choosing a fuel system that’s too large for their truck. Fuel system flow rate (measured in GPH – gallons per hour) matters. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> For example: </span> </span> <span> A stock LBZ Duramax typically only needs a 100GPH FASS system. If that same truck is equipped with a 290GPH FASS, the owner has essentially installed a race-ready fuel system. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> That larger pump is designed to support extreme horsepower, drag racing, sled pulling, and competition use. On a stock or lightly modified truck, that excess capacity can result in more audible pump noise — not because the system is poorly designed, but because it’s </span> </span> <span> far </span> <span> <span> more fuel flow than the truck requires. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> <span> Simply put </span> <span> <span> &#55357;&#56393;:  Bigger is not always better when it comes to fuel systems. Choosing the correct GPH for your setup is key to maintaining whisper-quiet operation. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Installation Issues Can Also Cause Unnecessary Noise <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> Beyond oversizing, installation-related issues are the second most common cause of unwanted noise. Common examples include: <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Air entering the fuel lines due to loose fittings or improper sealing </span> </li> <li> <span> Restrictions on the suction line, such as kinks, tight bends, or undersized hose </span> </li> <li> <span> Improper routing that causes vibration or resonance </span> </li> <li> <span> Incorrect mounting that transmits sound into the frame or cab </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> These issues can create a whining or buzzing sound that some people mistakenly blame on the fuel system itself. <br/> <br/> </span> <span> The good news? </span> <span> <span> &#55357;&#56393; 99% of the time, these problems are quick and easy to fix. A simple inspection or phone call with the FASS customer service team can usually identify and correct the issue fast. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Why FASS Still Leads the Industry in Noise Reduction <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> When properly sized and installed, FASS systems deliver: <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Industry-leading quiet operation </span> </li> <li> <span> Smooth, consistent fuel flow </span> </li> <li> <span> Minimal vibration </span> </li> <li> <span> Long-term reliability and durability <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> That’s why FASS fuel systems are trusted not only by racers, but also by daily drivers, tow rigs, work trucks, fleets, and agricultural equipment owners who demand quiet, dependable performance. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> The Bottom Line </strong> </p> <p> <span> So — are FASS fuel systems loud? No. FASS Diesel Fuel Systems are proven to be the quietest diesel fuel systems available, thanks to Whisper Quiet Technology and precision engineering. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> When noise does occur, it’s almost always due to: <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Choosing a system with more GPH than the truck actually needs </span> </li> <li> <span> Minor installation issues that can be quickly resolved <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> If you ever have questions about system sizing, installation, or noise, </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/contact-information" target="_blank"> the FASS service team </a> <span> <span> is always ready to help.

Learn about the different options available for stock and modified Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke trucks! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Choosing the right FASS Diesel Fuel System doesn’t have to be complicated. <br/> <br/> While FASS offers several product lines and flow rates, selecting the correct system usually comes down to a few simple factors: your truck’s age and mileage, current and future performance modifications, and how long you plan to keep the truck. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> This guide breaks it all down so you can confidently choose the FASS system that best fits your diesel-powered truck and your long-term goals. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> Start with Your Truck’s Age and Mileage <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> One of the first things to consider is how old your truck is and how many miles are on it. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Newer, lower-mileage trucks often still have a healthy factory in-tank fuel pump. </span> </li> <li> <span> Older or higher-mileage trucks may have fuel pumps that are already worn or nearing the end of their service life. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> If your truck is newer and the factory pump is still strong, you may not need a full replacement lift pump system right away. Instead, focusing on fuel filtration and air/vapor separation can provide tremendous protection. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Consider Your Performance Modifications (and Future Plans) <br/> </strong> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Your current setup—and what you plan to do in the future—plays a major role in selecting the right FASS system. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Answer these questions: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Is the truck completely stock? </span> </li> <li> <span> Is it lightly modified with tuning or intake/exhaust upgrades? </span> </li> <li> <span> Do you plan to add larger injectors, turbos, or more aggressive tuning later? <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> If your truck is stock or lightly modified, you may not need additional fuel flow beyond what the factory pump provides. However, if you’re planning significant performance upgrades, choosing a higher-capacity FASS system now can save time and money later. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> How Long Do You Plan to Keep the Truck? <br/> </strong> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> This is one of the most overlooked—but most important—questions. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> If you plan to: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Keep the truck long term </span> </li> <li> <span> Rely on it for towing, work, or daily driving </span> </li> <li> <span> Avoid costly injector or injection pump failures <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Then investing in proper fuel filtration early makes a lot of sense. Clean, air-free fuel can extend injection system life by up to three times, making a FASS system one of the smartest long-term reliability upgrades you can make. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> When the FASS Drop-In Series Is the Right Choice <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> <span> For many diesel owners, the </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/drop-in-series" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS Drop-In Series Fuel System </strong> </a> <span> <span> is the perfect solution.

FASS Fuel Systems remove air, water, and debris, improve fuel lubricity by at least 10%, and triple injection system life! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> If you’ve been researching diesel upgrades, you’ve probably heard about FASS Diesel Fuel Systems—but you may still be wondering what a FASS system actually does, and why so many diesel owners consider it one of the smartest upgrades they can make. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> The simple answer is this: </strong> <br/> </p> <p> <span> A FASS Fuel System cleans, conditions, and delivers diesel fuel the way your engine actually needs it. While FASS systems are widely known in the performance world, their true purpose goes far beyond horsepower. <br/> <br/> At their core, FASS systems are designed to dramatically improve fuel quality, fuel lubricity, and injection system longevity—benefits that apply to every diesel engine. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> The Real Problem with Diesel Fuel <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel is not as clean or consistent as many people assume. Even fresh fuel from the pump can contain: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Entrained air and vapor </span> </li> <li> <span> Water contamination </span> </li> <li> <span> Microscopic debris and particulates <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Modern diesel engines rely on extremely high fuel pressures, tight tolerances, and fuel lubrication to survive. When contaminated or aerated fuel enters the system, it leads to cavitation, heat, metal-to-metal contact, and premature wear—especially in injectors and high-pressure pumps. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> What a FASS Fuel System Does Differently <br/> </strong> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> A FASS Diesel Fuel System addresses these issues before they ever reach your engine by performing three critical functions: <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 1. Removes Air and Vapor from Diesel Fuel </strong> </p> <p> <span> Air in fuel is one of the most destructive contaminants in any diesel system. It causes pressure fluctuations, cavitation, injector noise, hard starts, and accelerated component wear. FASS systems use advanced fuel air separation technology to remove entrained air and vapor before the fuel reaches the injection pump—ensuring a solid, consistent fuel column at all times. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 2. Provides Advanced Filtration and Water Separation </strong> </p> <p> <span> FASS fuel systems filter diesel fuel down to 2 microns absolute and remove over 99% of free water. This level of filtration far exceeds most factory fuel systems. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Cleaner fuel means: </span> </p> <p> <span> Better combustion </span> </p> <p> <span> Reduced injector wear </span> </p> <p> <span> Fewer costly fuel system failures <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 3. Improves Fuel Lubricity by at Least 10% </strong> </p> <p> <span> <span> One of the most overlooked benefits of a FASS Fuel System is its effect on fuel lubricity. By removing air, water, and contaminants—and stabilizing fuel pressure—FASS filtration improves diesel fuel lubricity by </span> </span> <strong> at least </strong> <span> <span> 10%. <br/> <br/> Improved lubricity reduces friction and heat inside injectors and pumps, helping them operate more smoothly and efficiently. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <p> <strong> How This Translates to Longer Component Life <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> When fuel is cleaner, air-free, and more lubricative, the entire injection system benefits. With proper filtration and conditioning, FASS Diesel Fuel Systems can TRIPLE the life of injection system components, including: <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Injectors </span> </li> <li> <span> Injection pumps (CP3, CP4, etc.) </span> </li> <li> <span> Seals and internal wear surfaces <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> That kind of longevity isn’t just about performance—it’s about protecting some of the most expensive parts on your diesel engine. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Not Just for Performance Trucks <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> Although FASS systems are trusted by high-horsepower race trucks, they’re equally valuable on: <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Bone-stock daily drivers </span> </li> <li> <span> Tow rigs and work trucks </span> </li> <li> <span> Fleet vehicles </span> </li> <li> <span> Farm and construction equipment <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Anything that runs on diesel fuel benefits from cleaner fuel, improved lubricity, and reduced wear. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> The Bottom Line <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> <span> So what does a FASS fuel system actually do? It cleans diesel fuel, removes air/vapor and water, improves fuel lubricity by at least 10%, and </span> </span> <strong> triples </strong> <span> <span> the life of your injection system. Performance gains are a bonus—but protection and reliability are the real foundation. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Whether your truck is stock or heavily modified, a FASS Diesel Fuel System is one of the most effective upgrades you can make to ensure your diesel runs smoother, lasts longer, and performs the way it should. </span> </p> </div> Mon, 22 Dec 2025 16:57:12 GMT http://www.fassride.com/what-does-a-fass-fuel-system-actually-do thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/what-is-a-fass-no-drop-kit What is a FASS No-Drop Kit? It’s a FASS Diesel Fuel System that includes a Fuel Sump for quick installation and consistent fuel delivery—no tank drop required. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> If you’ve been researching FASS Diesel Fuel Systems, you’ve probably seen the term “ </span> <strong> No-Drop Kit </strong> <span> ” and wondered what it means. Simply put, a FASS No-Drop Kit is an installation option that makes adding a FASS Fuel System faster, easier, and cleaner — because you don’t have to remove or “drop” your fuel tank to install it. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Instead, every FASS No-Drop Kit includes the FASS Single-Bolt Fuel Sump, which allows fuel to be drawn directly from the bottom of the tank — saving hours of installation time and providing a consistent, reliable fuel supply. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span> Why FASS Developed the No-Drop Kit <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Dropping a fuel tank can be one of the most time-consuming steps in a traditional fuel system installation. It often requires multiple people, specialized equipment, and plenty of patience — especially on trucks with large aftermarket tanks or corrosion. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> FASS developed the </span> </span> <strong> No-Drop Kit </strong> <span> <span> to simplify that process.

It’s the ideal solution for diesel owners who want premium fuel filtration and performance—without the extra hassle. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Whether you drive a Cummins, Powerstroke, or Duramax, the No-Drop Kit makes upgrading your fuel system cleaner, quicker, and smarter. </span> </p> </div> Mon, 08 Dec 2025 20:18:04 GMT http://www.fassride.com/what-is-a-fass-no-drop-kit thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/why-your-stock-diesel-truck-benefits-from-a-fass-fuel-system Upgrade to FASS and enjoy 3× injector life, smoother performance, and unmatched 2-micron filtration for your class 8 truck, pickup, or diesel-powered equipment! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> <span> When some people hear “FASS Diesel Fuel Systems,” they think of drag racing, sled pulls, dyno competitions, and high-horsepower diesel builds. And while it’s true that FASS (Fuel Air Separation Systems) is trusted by top performance trucks across the country, the real story runs deeper — because FASS is </span> </span> <strong> not </strong> <span> just for performance-oriented trucks. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> At their core, FASS Diesel Fuel Systems are built to protect your investment by providing the cleanest fuel possible and extending the life of your injection components — and backed by 3rd party testing. </span> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/d0fc1429/dms3rep/multi/Why+FASS+Diesel+Fuel+Systems+Are+an+Awesome+Upgrade+for+Stock+Diesel+Trucks+%281%29.png" alt="Why FASS Diesel Fuel Systems Are an Awesome Upgrade for Stock Diesel Trucks_Blog Image "/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span> FASS: Fuel Filtration First, Performance Second <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> The truth is simple: </span> </span> <strong> FASS systems are fuel filtration upgrades before they’re performance upgrades. </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> Every diesel engine — from a daily-driven pickup to a 1,000-horsepower competition truck — depends on clean, air-free fuel. Unfortunately, factory systems often allow air, vapor, water, and microscopic debris to circulate through the fuel system. <br/> <br/> Over time, that contamination leads to premature wear on injectors, injection pumps, and other high-pressure components. That’s where FASS comes in. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> FASS Diesel Fuel Systems: </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <span> <span> Remove </span> </span> <strong> air and vapor </strong> <span> <span> from the fuel supply </span> </span> </li> <li> <span> <span> Eliminate </span> </span> <strong> over 99% of water </strong> </li> <li> <span> <span> Filter down to </span> </span> <strong> 2 microns absolute </strong> <span> <span> (far beyond OEM filtration) </span> </span> </li> <li> <span> Deliver steady, positive fuel pressure to the injection pump <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> The result? </span> </span> <strong> 3× (or more) the lifespan </strong> <span> <span> for injectors and injection pumps — even on completely stock trucks; along with optimized MPG, restored power, a sharper throttle response, and so much more. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Why Stock Trucks Benefit So Much from a FASS System <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Even if your truck is bone-stock, the factory fuel system setup leaves room for improvement. Simply removing the air and vapor from your fuel delivers a serious ROI. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Everyday benefits for stock diesel owners who install a FASS Fuel System include: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Easier cold starts and smoother idle </span> </li> <li> <span> Better throttle response </span> </li> <li> <span> Quieter, more consistent operation </span> </li> <li> <span> Reduced maintenance and fewer injector-related issues </span> </li> <li> <span> Peace of mind knowing your fuel system is protected </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> On top of air and vapor removal, FASS Fuel Systems eliminate over 99% of the water from fuel, as well as debris down to 2 Microns absolute. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Protect Your Truck — Stock or Modified <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> Whether your truck is a </span> </span> <strong> daily driver </strong> <span> <span> , a </span> </span> <strong> tow rig </strong> <span> <span> , or a </span> </span> <strong> workhorse </strong> <span> , a FASS system helps you get more life out of every mile. Clean fuel means cleaner combustion, more reliable performance, and fewer costly repairs down the road. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> It’s not about how much horsepower you’re making — it’s about how long your truck lasts. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> So, if you’ve ever wondered whether a FASS system makes sense for a stock truck, the answer is simple: </span> </span> <strong> absolutely. </strong> <span> <span> FASS was built to perform — but engineered to protect. </span> </span> </p> </div> Fri, 05 Dec 2025 21:42:46 GMT http://www.fassride.com/why-your-stock-diesel-truck-benefits-from-a-fass-fuel-system thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/fass-titanium-signature-series-vs-titanium-signature-series-plus-whats-the-difference Learn the difference between the FASS Titanium Signature Series and Titanium Signature Series PLUS Fuel Systems!

From bone-stock Rams to 900+hp monsters, the 165 is definitely worth a look. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> <span> When it comes to upgrading the fuel system on a 6.7L Cummins-powered Ram, few products are as popular as the </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/product-filter?searchSpec=PICKUP%7C2010%7CDODGE%2FRAM+-+3500%7C600HP+to+900HP" target="_blank"> FASS 165GPH Fuel System </a> <span> . <br/> <br/> Known for its balance of flow, filtration, and dependability, the 165GPH system has become extremely common among diesel Ram owners—whether their builds are bone stock, towing daily, or tuned for high performance. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span> The Perfect Balance of Flow and Protection <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> At </span> </span> <strong> 165 gallons per hour </strong> <span> <span> , this FASS system delivers more than enough fuel flow for </span> </span> <strong> stock, mildly modified, or heavily modified 6.7 Cummins trucks </strong> <span> <span> , while still maintaining exceptional filtration and air separation performance. <br/> <br/> In fact, a 165GPH FASS Fuel System can support 900-1,000 </span> </span> <strong> wheel </strong> <span> horsepower on the 6.7 Cummins. But, even if your truck is bone-stock; a 165GPH is an awesome upgrade; especially if you have performance upgrades planned down the road. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> FASS systems aren’t just about fueling power—they’re about </span> </span> <strong> fueling clean </strong> <span> <span> . Each 165GPH System filters fuel down to </span> </span> <strong> 2 microns absolute </strong> <span> <span> , removes over </span> </span> <strong> 99% of water </strong> <span> <span> , and separates harmful </span> </span> <strong> air and vapor </strong> <span> <span> before fuel ever reaches the injectors or high-pressure pump. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> The result? </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Longer injector and CP3/CP4 pump life (3x life is expected) </span> </li> <li> <span> Restored horsepower </span> </li> <li> <span> Optimized MPG (results will vary) </span> </li> <li> <span> Smoother throttle response </span> </li> <li> <span> Consistent fuel delivery under the most demanding conditions <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> It’s the perfect upgrade for drivers who want both </span> </span> <strong> power and peace of mind </strong> <span> . <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Designed Specifically for 6.7L Cummins Applications <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> The 6.7 Cummins is one of the most capable diesel engines on the market—but it also relies heavily on fuel quality. Air, water, and poor filtration are the leading causes of premature injector and pump failure in these trucks. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> That’s where the FASS 165GPH system shines. By </span> </span> <strong> removing air from the fuel supply and maintaining positive fuel pressure </strong> <span> , it prevents cavitation and starvation—two common issues in stock systems. This means better starts, cleaner combustion, and protection from expensive failures down the road. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Available in Multiple Versions: A FASS for Every Setup <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Not every Cummins owner uses their truck the same way, which is why FASS offers several versions of the 165GPH system to fit virtually any 6.7L setup. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> • </strong> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/details?id=155725" target="_blank"> <strong> No-Drop Series </strong> </a> <span> <span> – The original design that lets you install the system without dropping the fuel tank.

Modern diesel injection systems are powerful—but also sensitive to air, water, and debris in fuel. That’s where the </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/drop-in-series" target="_blank"> FASS Drop-In Series Fuel System </a> <span> <span> comes in. </span> </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> This system is a direct-fit, high-efficiency upgrade designed to improve performance, filtration, and long-term reliability—that </span> </span> <strong> drastically </strong> <span> <span> reduces the cost of fuel filter changes. And in the how-to installation video linked below, Albert from FASS R&amp;D walks through exactly how easy it is to install one on your truck. </span> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> The FASS Drop-In Advantage <br/> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <span> <span> Unlike traditional fuel systems that require drilling, wiring, or dropping the tank, the </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/drop-in-series" target="_blank"> FASS Drop-In Series </a> <span> <span> is engineered to install in just a couple of hours; while keeping the OEM in-tank fuel pump intact. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Key Benefits: </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Simple Plug-and-Play Installation – Can easily be installed in your driveway! </span> </li> <li> <span> Superior Filtration – Removes air, vapor, and over 99% of water while filtering down to 2 microns absolute. </span> </li> <li> <span> Increased Injector &amp; Pump Life – 3x the life of expensive injection system components. </span> </li> <li> <span> Improved Performance – Provides smoother throttle response, restored HP, and optimized MPG*. </span> </li> <li> <span> OEM-Compatible Design – Works perfectly with your truck’s factory in-tank fuel pump. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Whether your Ram is stock or tuned, the Drop-In Series ensures your fuel stays clean and stable for optimal combustion and maximum efficiency. </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> In the video, Albert explains the process from start to finish, showing proper mounting, connections, and tips for a clean installation.

Easy, no-tank-drop installation, superior fuel flow, and durable design. Click for the YouTube video! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> If you’re installing a new FASS Diesel Fuel System or upgrading your existing setup, the FASS Single Bolt Sump Kit (SK5501) is one of the simplest and most effective ways to improve fuel delivery. <br/> <br/> Designed for quick installation and maximum reliability, this innovative sump eliminates the need to drop the fuel tank—saving time, labor, and frustration. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span> What the FASS SK5501 Fuel Sump Kit Does <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> The FASS Single Bolt Sump Kit draws fuel directly from the lowest point of the fuel tank, ensuring a consistent supply of clean diesel to your FASS system—even when fuel levels are low. By reducing the strain on the lift pump and eliminating suction issues caused by factory pickups, the sump helps maintain steady pressure and fuel flow under all conditions. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Key Features and Benefits <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <strong> Single-Bolt Design </strong> <span> <span> – The SK5501 uses one central bolt and an internal o-ring seal for a fast, secure, leak-free installation. No need for multiple fasteners or complex hardware. </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> No Tank Drop Required </strong> <span> <span> – Drill one hole in the tank bottom and install from the outside—no need to remove or lower the tank. </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Increased Fuel Flow </strong> <span> <span> – Provides a high-volume feed to your FASS lift pump for smoother starts, consistent pressure, and reduced aeration. </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Heavy-Duty Construction </strong> <span> <span> – CNC-machined from premium billet aluminum and anodized for corrosion resistance and long life. </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Universal Fit </strong> <span> <span> – Works with most aftermarket and OEM fuel tanks and is compatible with all FASS Titanium and Titanium Signature Series Systems. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> Why Upgrade to a FASS Sump Kit? <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Many diesel owners experience power loss, cavitation, or hard starts when the factory fuel pickup can’t keep up—especially under towing or performance conditions. The SK5501 Sump Kit solves these issues by letting gravity do the work. <br/> <br/> It feeds fuel directly from the tank bottom to your FASS system, ensuring steady flow even when the tank is nearly empty. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> This upgrade not only protects your injection components from starvation but also simplifies future maintenance by making the fuel supply line easier to access. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Watch the Installation Video <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> Want to see how simple the installation really is? <br/> <br/> Check out our </span> </span> <a href="https://youtu.be/vMPb1OifeK0?si=JuLSYhDh2mID9d9L" target="_blank"> <strong> official YouTube tutorial </strong> </a> <span> <span> where Josh Thornton walks through the complete step-by-step installation process. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> &#55356;&#57253; </span> </span> <strong> Watch the video here: </strong> <span> <br/> </span> <span> <span> </span> </span> <a href="https://youtu.be/vMPb1OifeK0?si=JuLSYhDh2mID9d9L" target="_blank"> How to Install the FASS Single Bolt Sump Kit (SK5501) </a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOURVIDEOID" target="_blank"> <br/> <br/> </a> </p> <p> <span> The video covers everything from tools required and drilling placement to proper sealing techniques—so you can complete the job with confidence and professional results. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Final Thoughts <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> The </span> </span> <strong> FASS Diesel Fuel Systems SK5501 Single Bolt Sump Kit </strong> <span> <span> is one of the most convenient and performance-boosting accessories you can add to your diesel fuel system.

Learn how FASS works, why it’s different, maintenance tips, installation info, and more. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Whether you’re new to FASS Diesel Fuel Systems or a long-time diesel enthusiast looking to upgrade, you probably have questions about how FASS works, what makes it different, and how to choose the right system. <br/> <br/> In this guide, we’ll answer some of the most commonly searched and asked questions about FASS to help you make informed decisions. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> What Does a FASS Diesel Fuel System Do? <br/> <br/> </strong> </h3> <p> <span> A FASS Diesel Fuel System is designed to separate air and vapor, remove over 99% of water, and debris down to 2 Microns—resulting in clean, pressurized fuel delivered to your engine. This protects critical components like injectors and injection pumps while improving throttle response, fuel economy, and reliability. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Originally engineered for commercial trucks, FASS Diesel Fuel Systems have become the #1 fuel filtration upgrade for Class 8 and pickup trucks alike—as well as diesel-powered equipment such as tractors, generators, and more. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> What Makes FASS Different from Other Fuel Systems? <br/> <br/> </strong> </h3> <p> <span> FASS systems combine three major functions in one unit: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <span> Air &amp; Vapor Separation – Removes entrained air that can cause pressure drops, cavitation, hard starts, and injector wear. </span> </li> <li> <span> <span> Simply installing a FASS Diesel Fuel System can </span> </span> <span> TRIPLE </span> <span> <span> the life of an injection system. </span> </span> </li> <li> <span> Advanced Filtration – Filters down to 2 microns absolute while removing over 99% of the water from your fuel, which is far more effective than stock filters. </span> </li> <li> <span> The FASS Extreme Water Separator also serves as a fail-safe against extreme water contamination. Should you ever fill up with a tank of fuel that's full of water, a FASS Diesel Fuel System would prevent the contaminated fuel from reaching your engine. </span> </li> <li> <span> Consistent Lift Pump Pressure – Reduces strain on the injection system and ensures stable fuel delivery even under load. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> FASS also designs and manufactures its systems in the USA, ensuring tight quality control and innovation that’s trusted across the diesel industry. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> Do I Still Need to Use My Factory Fuel Filter? <br/> <br/> </strong> </h3> <p> <span> In many applications, no—FASS filtration will render your factory fuel filter obsolete. Your FASS system will handle the filtration and air separation before the fuel reaches the OEM filter, which means it can be removed or "deleted" in many cases. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> For some applications, a separate </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/fuel-filter-delete-kits" target="_blank"> Fuel Filter Delete Kit </a> <span> <span> can be purchased to remove the factory fuel filter and/or housing. </span> </span> <strong> <br/> </strong> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> How Often Should I Change My FASS Filters? <br/> <br/> </strong> </h3> <p> <span> FASS filters should typically be changed every 20,000 to 30,000 miles, depending on driving conditions and fuel quality. If you operate in dirty or variable fuel environments, consider shorter intervals. If you drive less than 20,000 to 30,000 miles per year, we recommend changing them annually. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Regular filter changes ensure your system continues to deliver clean, air-free fuel—and help prevent power loss, hard starts, or injector wear. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> Does Installing a FASS System Void My Warranty? <br/> </strong> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> No. Simply installing a FASS Diesel Fuel System does not void your factory warranty. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act prevents manufacturers from voiding your warranty just because you’ve added aftermarket parts—unless they can prove that the part directly caused a failure. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Some dealerships and performance shops actually recommend FASS systems they exceed OEM filtration requirements and improve the life of expensive injection system components. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> How Do I Choose the Right Size FASS System? <br/> <br/> </strong> </h3> <p> <span> Choosing the right system depends on: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Engine &amp; Model Year (Cummins, Duramax, Powerstroke, CAT, Paccar, Detroit, etc) </span> </li> <li> <span> Horsepower / Performance Level </span> </li> <li> <span> Intended Use (towing, daily driving, performance, competition) <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> For example, stock or lightly modified trucks may only need a </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/drop-in-series" target="_blank"> Drop-In Fuel Series System </a> <span> , while heavily modified or high-horsepower builds often use 220+ GPH systems. We offer Drop-In, Titanium Signature Series, and Industrial Series Fuel Systems to suit every need. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> How Hard Is It to Install a FASS System? <br/> <br/> </strong> </h3> <p> <span> Installation difficulty varies by model: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Drop-In Series: Usually installs in 1–3 hours using factory locations and OEM fuel lines. No cutting or drilling required. </span> </li> <li> <span> No-Drop Systems (with sump): Typically more involved but still manageable for experienced DIYers or performance shops. Requires drilling a single hole for the sump. </span> </li> <li> <span> Full Titanium Signature Series: Ideal for performance builds or as a long-term upgrade. Professional installation is recommended for best results. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> We provide detailed installation instructions with every kit, and our Missouri-based service team is available for step-by-step guidance. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> What Kind of Maintenance Does a FASS System Require? <br/> <br/> </strong> </h3> <p> <span> Aside from routine filter changes, maintenance is minimal. When installing, check fittings and lines for leaks, and inspect the wiring and mounting hardware to ensure everything remains secure. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> FASS Fuel Systems are designed to outlast the vehicle or equipment they're installed on—running for hundreds of thousands of miles with minimal attention. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> Can a FASS System Improve Fuel Economy? <br/> <br/> </strong> </h3> <p> <span> <span> Yes, in many cases. By eliminating air and vapor and improving filtration, a diesel engine will operate as efficiently as possible. Customers often report modest MPG gains, especially when towing or under load—but we cannot guarantee a measurable MPG gain. </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> This is due to variations in driving habits, MPG tracking methods, and fuel quality—among other factors. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> Where Can I Buy Replacement Filters and Parts? <br/> <br/> </strong> </h3> <p> <span> Genuine FASS filters, accessories, and replacement parts are available through the official FASS website, authorized dealers, and many diesel performance shops across the country. Always use genuine parts to maintain system performance and warranty. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Final Thoughts </strong> </h2> <p> <span> A FASS Diesel Fuel System is more than just a lift pump—it’s a complete fuel conditioning and protection solution designed for modern diesel engines. <br/> <br/> Whether you drive a daily Cummins-powered pickup, a tuned Duramax, or a Powerstroke towing rig, FASS delivers cleaner fuel, consistent pressure, and longer injection system life. <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> By understanding how the system works and following basic maintenance, you’ll get the most out of your investment and keep your diesel running strong for years to come!

Follow this step-by-step guide to ensure maximum filtration and fuel quality for your truck! <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span> Routine filter changes are one of the most important maintenance steps you can take to keep your FASS Diesel Fuel System performing at its best. <br/> <br/> Whether you’re running a Titanium Signature Series, Drop-In Series, or Industrial Series system, replacing your filters on schedule ensures clean, pure fuel is delivered to your engine every time you start it. </span> </h3> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span> Why Filter Changes Matter <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> FASS Diesel Fuel Systems are designed to remove water, air/vapor, and debris down to </span> </span> <strong> 2 microns absolute </strong> <span> —protecting your injectors and injection pump from harmful contamination. Over time, the filters collect dirt, water, and other impurities, which can restrict flow if not changed regularly. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> Changing the filters on time helps: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Maintain consistent fuel pressure </span> </li> <li> <span> Protect expensive injectors and injection pumps </span> </li> <li> <span> Prevent hard starts and air intrusion </span> </li> <li> <span> Extend the lifespan of your FASS system and fuel system components <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> For most applications, filters should be changed </span> </span> <strong> every 15,000–30,000 miles </strong> <span> , or sooner if you’re running in dirty fuel conditions or experiencing power loss. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> What You’ll Need <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <span> FASS replacement fuel filters (fuel and water separator) </span> </li> <li> <span> Filter wrench or strap wrench (optional but helpful) </span> </li> <li> <span> Clean rags or towels </span> </li> <li> <span> Diesel-safe container (to catch any fuel) </span> </li> <li> <span> Diesel fuel (for pre-filling filters, optional on some models) </span> </li> <li> <span> Safety glasses and gloves <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> Step 1: Turn Off the Truck and Relieve Pressure <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Make sure the engine is off and the key is in the OFF position. Allow the system to sit for a minute to relieve any residual fuel pressure. For added safety, disconnect the negative battery cable before starting the filter change. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Step 2: Remove the Old Filters <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> Place a container or rags under the filters to catch any dripping fuel. Using your hand or a strap wrench, </span> </span> <strong> unscrew the water separator </strong> <span> <span> (the filter with the drain) first, followed by the </span> </span> <strong> fuel filter </strong> <span> . Dispose of the old filters properly. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Step 3: Prep the New Filters <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> For Titanium Signature Series and Industrial systems, it’s recommended to </span> </span> <strong> pre-fill the new filters with clean diesel fuel </strong> <span> <span> before installing. This helps reduce priming time and prevents air pockets. Avoid overfilling or letting dirt get inside the filter. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> For Drop-In Series systems, follow the product instructions — some applications may require dry installation, letting the system do the priming electronically. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Step 4: Install the New Filters <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> Lightly coat the new filter gaskets with clean diesel. Thread the filters onto their respective heads until the gasket contacts the base, then tighten another </span> </span> <strong> ¾ turn by hand </strong> <span> . Do not overtighten. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> Install the </span> </span> <strong> water separator first </strong> <span> <span> , then the </span> </span> <strong> fuel filter </strong> <span> . <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Step 5: Prime the FASS System <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Proper priming is essential to avoid air in the fuel lines. Depending on your system, the process may vary slightly, but generally follows these steps: </span> </p> <ol> <li> <strong> Turn the ignition key to the ON position </strong> <span> <span> without starting the engine. </span> </span> </li> <li> <span> <span> Allow the </span> </span> <strong> FASS system to run for 30 seconds </strong> <span> . You should hear the lift pump cycling. </span> </li> <li> <span> Turn the key OFF for 5 seconds. </span> </li> <li> <span> <span> Repeat this ON/OFF cycle </span> </span> <strong> 3–4 times </strong> <span> <span> to purge air from the filters and lines. </span> </span> </li> <li> <span> If equipped, you can use the manual priming feature (button or Schrader valve) to assist. </span> </li> <li> <span> On some older systems, cracking the fuel filter bleeder slightly during priming can help push out trapped air. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> After cycling, check the filters for leaks and tighten if needed. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Step 6: Start the Engine and Inspect <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Start the truck and let it idle for a minute. Watch for any leaks around the filter base or fittings. Fuel pressure should stabilize quickly, and the engine should idle smoothly without sputtering or hard starting. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Pro Tips for Best Results <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <span> Always keep a spare set of filters in your truck, especially for long trips. </span> </li> <li> <span> If your truck sits for extended periods, change filters before the season starts. </span> </li> <li> <span> Write the date and mileage on the filter canister for easy tracking. </span> </li> <li> <span> Use only genuine FASS filters for correct fitment and filtration performance. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> Keep Your System Running Strong <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> Regular filter changes and proper priming are the simplest ways to protect your </span> </span> <strong> FASS Diesel Fuel System </strong> <span> <span> and your engine’s injection components. With clean, air-free fuel, your truck will perform more consistently, last longer, and stay ready for whatever work or play you throw at it. </span> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 15 Oct 2025 19:01:25 GMT http://www.fassride.com/how-to-change-filters-and-prime-your-fass-diesel-fuel-system thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/behind-the-scenes-the-fass-solutions-family Take a behind-the-scenes tour of FASS with owner Brad Ekstam!

Learn about flow rates (GPH), horsepower matchups, fuel system options, and more! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <a href="/"> One of the most common questions we get here at FASS is: </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h4> <a href="/"> “ </a> <a href="/"> <strong> What size fuel system do I need for my truck?” </strong> </a> </h4> <h4> <span> <br/> </span> </h4> <p> <a href="/"> If you’re not familiar with </a> <span> <span> </span> </span> <a href="/"> <strong> diesel fuel systems </strong> </a> <a href="/"> , don’t worry—we’ll explain sizing right now. By “size”, we’re referring to a fuel system’s flow rate—which is measured in Gallons Per Hour (GPH).  </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> Flow rate or GPH simply refers to how much fuel a System can deliver to the engine. Most stock or lightly modified diesel pickup trucks won’t require more than a 100GPH or 140GPH Fuel System to keep their injection system and engine properly fed.  </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> For commercial diesel trucks with PACCAR, Cummins, or CAT engines (among others) 165GPH or even 290GPH </a> <span> <span> </span> </span> <a href="/"> <strong> Fuel Systems </strong> </a> <span> <span> </span> </span> <a href="/"> are regularly used.

These pumps are efficient and effective — until they run dry or ingest air. That’s when damage, cavitation, and accelerated wear begin. <br/> <br/> FASS Diesel Fuel Systems prevent these issues by ensuring gear pumps stay healthy and supplied with clean, consistent fuel. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Why Gear Pumps Fail: <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <strong> Running Dry </strong> <span> : Without sufficient fuel flow, gear pumps can spin dry, leading to overheating and internal damage. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Vapor Lock / Air Ingestion </strong> <span> : Air in the fuel causes cavitation — the formation and collapse of vapor bubbles that pit metal surfaces and erode internals. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Dirty or Contaminated Fuel </strong> <span> : Particles and water cause corrosion, scoring, and increased internal stress. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Irregular Pressure </strong> <span> : Fluctuations in pressure or interruptions in supply cause strain and reduce overall lifespan. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> How FASS Protects Your Gear Pump: <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <ol> <li> <strong> Pre-Filtering at 2 Microns </strong> <span> <br/> FASS units remove tiny contaminants that would otherwise wear pump gears and housing, preserving surface finish and reducing friction. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Air &amp; Vapor Removal </strong> <span> <br/> By separating air and vapor before fuel reaches the pump, FASS systems prevent cavitation and stabilize the fuel column for consistent flow. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Consistent Fuel Pressure from Lift Pump </strong> <span> <br/> FASS systems provide a dedicated lift pump to give consistent, positive pressure, reducing strain on the gear pump and avoiding starvation. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Water Separation </strong> <span> <br/> Removing free water protects internal pump surfaces from corrosion and rust damage that can weaken gear pump integrity. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Leak Detection &amp; Maintenance </strong> <span> <br/> Regular checks on sealing surfaces, connections, and lines help prevent air entry and minimize the risk of failure. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ol> <h3> <span> Results You Can Expect: <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <span> Longer gear pump life </span> </li> <li> <span> Fewer failures and lower maintenance costs </span> </li> <li> <span> Smoother fuel delivery under load </span> </li> <li> <span> Better overall reliability for your diesel fuel system </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Fri, 03 Oct 2025 16:50:38 GMT http://www.fassride.com/how-to-save-your-gear-pump-with-a-fass-diesel-fuel-system thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/how-to-prevent-diesel-fuel-from-gelling-this-winter Avoid gelled diesel fuel this winter with FASS! Protect your truck using electric fuel heaters and proper filtration for reliable cold-weather performance. <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <span> FASS Electric Fuel Heater Kits </span> </h3> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Winter conditions can be brutal on diesel fuel, especially when temperatures dip below freezing. Gelled fuel clogs lines, starves injectors, and leaves you stranded. Luckily, you can take proactive steps to protect your diesel fuel system. <br/> <br/> Here’s how: </span> </p> <h3> <span> <br/> Why Diesel Gels in Cold Weather: <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> As temperatures drop, the paraffin wax in diesel begins to crystallize. These wax crystals first form when the fuel reaches its </span> </span> <strong> cloud point </strong> <span> , creating a hazy mixture. If temperatures continue to fall, the crystals grow and clump together, turning the fuel into a gel that no longer flows freely through filters, lines, and the injection system.

Change Filters Before the Cold Hits </span> </h4> <p> <span> <span> Install </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/accessories/fass-fuel-filter-selector" target="_blank"> fresh fuel filters </a> <span> <span> before freezing weather sets in. Dirty filters can trap moisture and accelerate gelling. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <h4> <span> 2. Install Electric Fuel Heaters </span> </h4> <p> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/heater-kits" target="_blank"> Electric Fuel Heater Kits </a> <span> <span> are a seriously powerful, but often overlooked upgrade for diesel trucks operating in sub-freezing temps. Thanks to thermostatic control, these Fuel Heaters automatically turn on when your fuel reaches 32°, and turn off then it reaches operating temperature. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <h4> <span> 3. Use Winter Diesel Blends </span> </h4> <p> <span> <span> Use a winterized fuel blend (often #1 or mixed with #2) that has a lower gel point. These blends are created to resist gelling at colder temperatures. </span> </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h4> <span> 4. Avoid Biodiesel in Deep Freeze </span> </h4> <p> <span> Biodiesel and biodiesel blends tend to gel at higher temperatures than petroleum diesel. Whenever possible, switch to straight diesel or a winter blend in freezing conditions.

Keep the Fuel Tank as Full as Possible </span> </h4> <p> <span> A fuller tank reduces the amount of air in the tank that can allow condensation and moisture to form—moisture can freeze and contribute to gelling. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h4> <span> 6. Insulate &amp; Heat Lines &amp; Fuel Components </span> </h4> <p> <span> Wrapping or insulating fuel lines and using heaters (fuel filter heaters, tank heaters) can prevent the fuel from cooling too quickly. <br/> Also, parking in a garage or sheltered area helps protect the fuel from ambient freezing temperatures.

Here’s why air is so destructive, how to spot it, and how a FASS Diesel Fuel System prevents it. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Why Air in Fuel Is So Hazardous <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <strong> Disrupts fuel delivery and pressure </strong> <span> <span> — Diesel injectors and pumps depend on a consistent stream of liquid fuel. When air enters the lines, fuel can’t flow smoothly, which causes pressure drops, delays, or erratic delivery. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Cavitation damage </strong> <span> <span> — Air bubbles collapse under high pressure inside the injection pump (especially CP3/CP4 style), causing microscopic pitting and damage that quickly wears down internals. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Poor combustion and performance loss </strong> <span> <span> — Air causes uneven injection patterns, worse atomization, incomplete fuel burn, reduced power, slower throttle response, and higher emissions. ( </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/" target="_blank"> fassride.com </a> <span> ) <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Reduced fuel economy </strong> <span> <span> — Because combustion is less efficient with air/vapor mixed in, you often burn more fuel to get the same output. Even a small amount of air in fuel can cause noticeable MPG loss. ( </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/" target="_blank"> fassride.com </a> <span> ) <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Increased wear on injectors and pumps </strong> <span> <span> — Injectors are designed to work with clean, liquid fuel. When air is present, you get irregular pressure spikes, uneven flow, and mechanical stress that shorten the lifespan of high-dollar components. ( </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/" target="_blank"> fassride.com </a> <span> ) <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> How to Spot Air Problems Early <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <span> Engine coughs, stalls, or misfires under load <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Delayed starting, especially after the truck has sat or when warm <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Throttle feels soft or sluggish <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Visible bubbles in the fuel lines or fuel filter bowl <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Unexpected smoke or difficulty maintaining idle <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> How FASS Diesel Fuel Systems Stop Air Problems Before They Cost You <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <strong> Advanced Air &amp; Vapor Separation </strong> <span> <span> — FASS systems are built to remove air and vapor before fuel reaches the injector pump, so the fuel is fully liquid and pressurized properly. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Superior Filtration Down to 2 Microns </strong> <span> <span> — Filters that capture water, dirt, and debris protect your injectors and pump from abrasive contaminants that combine with air issues to accelerate wear. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Consistent Fuel Pressure with Lift Pump Design </strong> <span> <span> — By supplying fuel under the right pressure, FASS systems reduce strain on the injection pump, helping avoid cavitation. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Leak Prevention &amp; Maintenance </strong> <span> <span> — Regular inspections of fuel lines, seals, and fittings for leaks are essential. FASS systems make it easier to monitor and maintain these points. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> The Bottom Line: Longer Life, Better Performance <br/> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Installing a FASS Diesel Fuel System isn’t just about solving air problems—it’s about preventing them. Clean, air-free fuel means: <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Longer life for pumps and injectors <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Restored horsepower and stronger performance <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Better fuel economy and fewer visits to the shop <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span> For any diesel truck owner serious about reliability and value, keeping air out of your fuel system isn’t optional—it’s essential.

Learn 3 must-knows: towing/payload, maintenance costs, and resale value to avoid costly mistakes! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke-powered trucks are known for their torque, fuel efficiency, and durability. But buying a diesel truck is a big investment. <br/> <br/> Knowing what to look for up front can save you time, money, and headaches down the road. Here are three key things to evaluate before you commit. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> 1. Intended Use and Towing / Payload Needs </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <span> Define whether the truck will be used more for daily driving or for heavy work (hauling trailers, equipment, etc.). The way you plan to use it determines what kind of engine and chassis you need. </span> </li> <li> <span> Pay attention to towing capacity and torque ratings—not just horsepower. Look at the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) to ensure the truck can handle what you plan to pull. </span> </li> <li> <span> Don’t forget payload (cargo, tools, passengers). A truck that’s badged for strong towing but can’t safely haul what you need in the bed won’t meet your expectations. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> 2. Maintenance Costs &amp; Longevity Expectations </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <span> Diesel engines are built tough. With proper care, they can last hundreds of thousands of miles. But they also come with higher maintenance costs for things like oil, filters, fluids, and fuel-system components. </span> </li> <li> <span> Modern diesel trucks (especially those built after 2007) have emissions-related systems like Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF), Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR), and Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) with Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF). These systems are helpful for emissions, but they introduce additional complexity and potential repair costs. </span> </li> <li> <span> For used trucks, a good maintenance history is extremely important. Regular oil changes, filter changes, and documentation of any major repairs can indicate a better long-term investment. A professional pre-purchase inspection is strongly recommended. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> 3. Resale Value &amp; Market Demand </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <span> Diesel trucks tend to hold their value well—if they’re well maintained. Their durability, performance, and towing capabilities often keep demand high in the resale market. </span> </li> <li> <span> Certain engines and model years are more sought after. “Pre-emissions” diesels often have strong reputations, which can translate to higher resale value. </span> </li> <li> <span> Modifications, especially those that are poorly done or use low-quality parts, can reduce resale value.

The factory design forces the CP3/CP4 injection pump to pull fuel all the way from the tank — increasing strain, raising the risk of cavitation, and accelerating wear on expensive components. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> A </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS Diesel Fuel System </strong> </a> <span> <span> solves this by including a high-quality lift pump to maintain steady pressure, reduce injector-pump stress, drastically improve fuel quality, and extend the life of your injection components. <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </p> <h3> <span> What Makes FASS Fuel Filters Superior </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <strong> Advanced Water Separation </strong> <span> : FASS filters remove over 99% of free water from diesel fuel and use an Extreme Water Separator as protection against heavily contaminated fuel batches. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Ultra Fine Filtration </strong> <span> <span> : Debris filtration down to </span> </span> <strong> 2 microns absolute </strong> <span> <span> keeps rust, dirt, and particulates from damaging injectors. </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Air &amp; Vapor Removal </strong> <span> : Air or vapor in fuel causes poor combustion, injector damage, reduced power, and lower fuel economy; our design minimizes these issues and ensures only clean, vapor-free fuel reaches CP3/CP4 pumps. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> Performance &amp; Efficiency Gains </span> </h3> <p> <span> When your fuel delivery system is optimized, you’ll typically see: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Restored horsepower and torque </span> </li> <li> <span> Sharper throttle response </span> </li> <li> <span> Smoother idle and operation </span> </li> <li> <span> Increased fuel economy, especially under load or towing, because cleaner combustion and correct injection timing reduce waste </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> These gains are especially pronounced in older LB7 or LLY setups, where injector failures and performance drags are common. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Critical for Modified &amp; Tuned Trucks </span> </h3> <p> <span> If you’ve upgraded your truck — tuning, larger injectors, bigger turbo, for example — the stock fuel system often becomes the bottleneck. A FASS system ensures your fuel delivery keeps up with demand, protecting investments and allowing your Duramax to perform at its full potential. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <span> Long-Term Value &amp; Reliability </span> </h3> <p> <span> Duramax engines are built to last. Many owners drive theirs well past 300,000 or even 400,000 miles. Investing in a FASS Diesel Fuel System provides: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Protection for your CP3/CP4 pump and injectors </span> </li> <li> <span> Reduced risk of costly failures </span> </li> <li> <span> Better resale value for performance-savvy buyers who recognize the difference an upgraded fuel system makes <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <span> Final Thoughts </span> </h3> <p> <span> If you’re driving a 2001-2016 6.6L Duramax and want to maximize performance, reliability, and fuel economy, upgrading your fuel filter system with FASS is one of the smartest moves you can make. <br/> <br/> It addresses factory design limitations, offers superior filtration, supports additional power modifications, and ensures cleaner, more efficient operation. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Pro Tip: </strong> <span> <span> Pair your FASS system with the </span> </span> <a href="https://www.fassride.com/details?id=47603" target="_blank"> Single-Bolt Fuel Sump </a> <span> <span> to simplify installation and reduce hass </span> </span> </p> </div> Thu, 18 Sep 2025 14:57:55 GMT http://www.fassride.com/the-best-fuel-filter-for-your-2001-2016-6-6-duramax thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/why-a-fass-diesel-fuel-system-is-a-must-have-for-your-2017--gmc-chevy-l5p-duramax Discover why the FASS Diesel Fuel System is essential for 2017+ L5P Duramax trucks: superior filtration, water & air removal, and maximum reliability—made in U.S.A! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> Protect Your L5P’s Injection System with Cleaner, Safer Fuel </strong> <span> <br/> Your 2017 and newer GMC Sierra or Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500 with the 6.6L L5P Duramax was built to haul, tow, and work hard.

Use our guide to choose by make, model, HP & Series so you get the ideal FASS Fuel System for your diesel truck! <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> For diesel truck owners who want better performance, improved fuel economy, and protection for their injection systems, a FASS (Fuel Air Separation System) Diesel Fuel System is one of the best upgrades you can make. <br/> <br/> With several models and flow rates available, picking the right system can feel overwhelming. This guide walks you through what matters most and how to choose the right FASS system for your truck. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <h3> <strong> Why Upgrade to a FASS System? </strong> </h3> <p> <span> Stock diesel fuel systems often fall short in critical ways: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> They can allow air and vapor into the fuel, which reduces power, hurts fuel efficiency, and stresses engine components. </span> </li> <li> <span> Stock filtration often doesn’t clean fuel as thoroughly as it should — dirt, water, and debris can reach injectors and pumps. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> A FASS system includes a high-volume fuel pump and a top-tier filtration setup that removes air/vapor, water, and debris (down to 2 microns) before the fuel reaches your engine. The result? Cleaner, steadier fuel delivery that leads to: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Increased horsepower and torque </span> </li> <li> <span> Better fuel economy in many cases </span> </li> <li> <span> Longer life for injectors and the injection pump </span> </li> <li> <span> Smoother, quieter engine operation <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <h3> <strong> Key Steps to Choosing the Right FASS System </strong> </h3> <p> <strong> Here’s what to consider when selecting your FASS: </strong> </p> <ol> <li> <span> Identify Your Engine (Make, Model &amp; Year) <br/> FASS has dedicated solutions for most popular diesels: </span> </li> </ol> <ul> <li> <span> Ford Powerstroke (classic 7.3L up to modern 6.7L) </span> </li> <li> <span> Ram Cummins (5.9L 12-valve, 24-valve, 6.7L, etc.) </span> </li> <li> <span> Chevy/GMC Duramax (from LB7 through L5P) </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong>    2. Determine Your Horsepower / Flow Requirements </strong> <span> <br/> The flow rate (in gallons per hour, GPH) is a critical factor: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Stock to ~600 HP: ~100 GPH </span> </li> <li> <span> ~600-900 HP: ~140-165 GPH </span> </li> <li> <span> ~900-1,200 HP: ~220-250 GPH </span> </li> <li> <span> Above 1,200 HP: 260-540 GPH <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> Even if you’re not running high horsepower now, if you plan future upgrades, it’s okay to choose a FASS system with a higher GPH than your current setup requires. The system delivers only what your engine demands. <br/> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong>   3. Choose the Right Series / Kit Type </strong> <span> <br/> FASS offers multiple product lines depending on your needs, budget, and use case: </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Titanium Signature Series / Titanium Signature Series PLUS – The flagship line. Best for those who want top performance, whether daily use, towing, or competition. </span> </li> <li> <span> Drop-In Series – Uses the factory in-tank fuel pump; provides full filtration. Easier install, more budget-friendly.

Unlike an engine dynamometer, which measures power at the engine crankshaft, a chassis dyno more accurately assesses the real-world performance of a vehicle by simulating driving conditions.  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> This allows for a more accurate representation of how much power actually reaches the road. </span> </p> <p> <span> In this article, we’ll break down how a chassis dynamometer works, its key components, and why it’s so important for tuning, performance evaluation, and troubleshooting. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <font> <span> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> <span> <b> </b> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> <span> <b> <span> How a Chassis Dyno Works: Understanding the Numbers </span> </b> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> <span> <b> <span> <br/> </span> </b> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> A <b> chassis dynamometer </b> is a device that measures a vehicle’s power (horsepower and torque) by assessing how much force the vehicle’s wheels produce while rotating on rollers. </font> </p> <p> <font> <br/> </font> </p> <p> <font> A dyno simulates real driving conditions by applying resistance and measuring the power output transmitted through the drivetrain to the wheels. </font> </p> <p> <font> <br/> </font> </p> <p> <font> Chassis dynos are often used in <b> performance tuning </b> , <b> performance part installations </b> , <b> emissions testing </b> , and <b> diagnostics </b> . They can evaluate a variety of vehicles, including cars, trucks, motorcycles, and even electric vehicles.  </font> </p> <p> <font> <span> <b> <span> </span> </b> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> </font> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <strong> Key Components of a Chassis Dyno </strong> </h5> <h5> <br/> </h5> <ol> <li> <strong> Rollers </strong> <span> : The vehicle’s wheels sit on rollers, which simulate the rolling resistance of the road. These rollers are designed to spin in response to the vehicle’s wheels turning, mimicking actual driving conditions. <br/>   </span> </li> <li> <strong> Load Cell or Eddy Current Brake: </strong> <span> <span> A load cell or eddy current brake applies resistance to the rollers to simulate road conditions. <br/> <br/> The more resistance applied, the more force the engine has to exert, which allows the dyno to measure how much power the engine is generating.  <br/> </span> </span> <strong> <br/> </strong> </li> <li> <strong> Sensors and Data Acquisition System: </strong> <span> <span> The chassis dyno has sensors that measure various parameters like wheel speed, torque, RPM, and sometimes temperature. This data is collected and transmitted to a computer system that processes the information and calculates the vehicle’s horsepower and torque at the wheels. <br/> </span> </span> <strong>   </strong> </li> <li> <strong> Speed and RPM Measurement: </strong> <span> <span> As the vehicle accelerates on the rollers, the dyno measures both the rotational speed of the wheels and the engine’s RPM. <br/> <br/> The relationship between these two values, combined with the resistance applied to the rollers, is used to determine power output.  <br/> <br/> </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Computer and Software: </strong> <span> <span> The heart of the dyno system is its </span> </span> <strong> data acquisition software. </strong> <span> <span> It analyzes the sensor data, compiles it, and then presents the results in terms of horsepower and torque curves. <br/> <br/> Some dynos also provide additional diagnostic information, like air-fuel ratios or boost levels in forced induction engines.  </span> </span> <span> <br/> </span> </li> </ol> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <strong> How Does a Chassis Dyno Work? </strong> </h5> <h5> <br/> </h5> <ol> <li> <strong> Preparation: </strong> <span> The vehicle is driven onto the dyno rollers, and the wheels are secured in place. The dyno operator may need to adjust settings based on the vehicle’s weight and type to ensure accurate readings. <br/>   </span> </li> <li> <strong> Acceleration: </strong> <span> <span> Once the vehicle is secured, the operator begins the test by gradually accelerating the car or truck. The rollers spin as the vehicle moves, mimicking road conditions. <br/> <br/> The dyno measures how much power the engine produces by assessing how quickly the rollers turn.  </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Resistance Application: </strong> <span> <span> To simulate load, the chassis dyno applies resistance to the rollers. This can be achieved using a hydraulic brake or eddy current brake that generates a counter-force to the vehicle’s acceleration. <br/> <br/> This allows the system to simulate real-world driving conditions, such as climbing a hill or towing a heavy load, putting the engine under load.  </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Data Collection: </strong> <span> <span> As the vehicle accelerates, the dyno’s sensors record important metrics such as wheel speed, torque, and RPM. These values are constantly sent to the computer, which compares them and calculates the vehicle’s power output. <br/>   </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Power Calculation: </strong> <span> <span> The dynamometer uses complex algorithms to convert the torque and RPM data into horsepower and torque figures. These are the values displayed on the computer screen. <br/> <br/> The results are typically shown in wheel horsepower (whp) or wheel torque rather than crankshaft values because the power loss through the drivetrain (including the transmission, differential, and axle) is accounted for.  </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Data Interpretation: </strong> <span> <span> After the test is complete, the dyno produces a graph showing horsepower and torque over the engine’s RPM range. The graph provides a visual representation of the vehicle’s performance. <br/> <br/> This helps tuners and technicians understand the engine’s behavior at various RPM levels and evaluate its overall performance.  </span> </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <strong> Why is a Chassis Dyno Useful? </strong> </h5> <h5> <br/> </h5> <ol> <li> <strong> Performance Tuning: </strong> <span> Professional tuners rely on chassis dynos to adjust vehicle settings like fuel maps, ignition timing, and air-fuel ratios. <br/> <br/> By running the vehicle on the dyno before and after making changes, tuners can observe the effect of those modifications on power and torque output.  </span> </li> <li> <strong> Before and After Modifications: </strong> <span> <span> A chassis dyno is an excellent tool to measure the impact of performance upgrades, such as turbochargers, superchargers, exhaust systems, intake systems, or custom tuning. <br/> <br/> It can give vehicle owners a concrete before-and-after comparison of their modifications.  </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Diagnostics and Troubleshooting: </strong> <span> <span> If a vehicle isn’t performing as expected, a chassis dyno can help pinpoint problems like poor throttle response, loss of power, or issues with the drivetrain. <br/> <br/> It can also reveal subtle issues that might be difficult to detect during regular road driving.  </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Emissions Testing: </strong> <span> <span> Chassis dynos are sometimes used in emissions testing, particularly for ensuring that vehicles comply with local government standards. <br/> <br/> The dynamometer can simulate real-world driving and measure emissions during testing, offering an accurate reflection of the vehicle’s on-road emissions.  </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Evaluating Towing Performance: </strong> <span> For trucks and other heavy-duty vehicles, a chassis dyno can be used to test towing capacity and performance. <br/> <br/> It simulates the additional load from towing, providing real-world data on how the vehicle performs when under stress.  </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <strong> Types of Chassis Dynos </strong> </h5> <h5> <br/> </h5> <ol> <li> <strong> Two-Wheel Drive (2WD) Dyno: </strong> <span> <span> This type of chassis dyno is designed for vehicles with power going to only two wheels (either front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive). Only the driven wheels are placed on the rollers, and the unpowered wheels are left to turn freely. <br/>   </span> </span> </li> <li> <strong> All-Wheel Drive (AWD) Dyno: </strong> <span> <span> For vehicles with all-wheel drive, a specialized AWD chassis dyno is used. These systems have rollers for all four wheels and can measure the power at all four corners of the vehicle, taking into account the additional drivetrain complexity and losses that occur in AWD systems.  </span> </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <strong> Chassis Dyno vs. Engine Dyno </strong> </h5> <h5> <br/> </h5> <p> <span> <span> While both chassis and engine dynamometers measure power, the key difference is that </span> </span> <strong> chassis dynos </strong> <span> <span> assess power at the wheels, which accounts for drivetrain losses, while </span> </span> <strong> engine dynos </strong> <span> <span> measure power directly at the engine’s crankshaft. </span> </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h5> <strong> The Science of Measuring Power </strong> </h5> <h5> <br/> </h5> <p> <span> Chassis dynos are indispensable tools in automotive performance testing, tuning, and diagnostics. By simulating real-world driving conditions, they provide valuable insights into how much power a vehicle is actually delivering to the road. <br/> <br/> Whether you’re tuning your streetcar, racing vehicle, or troubleshooting power loss, a chassis dyno is a powerful tool for getting a true measurement of your vehicle’s performance. </span> </p> <p> <span> With advances in technology, dynos continue to improve in terms of accuracy, ease of use, and data collection, making them an even more essential part of the performance and automotive tuning industry. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Thu, 30 Jan 2025 20:27:49 GMT http://www.fassride.com/how-does-a-chassis-dyno-work thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/what-is-the-ultimate-callout-challenge What is UCC?

Here’s a breakdown of the major events: </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h4> <span> <span> 1. </span> </span> <strong> Sled Pulling </strong> </h4> <h4> <span> <br/> </span> </h4> <h4> <span> <br/> </span> </h4> <p> <span> Sled pulling is one of the most iconic events in all of diesel motorsports. At UCC, some of the baddest diesel trucks in the country go head-to-head on the pulling track.  </span> </p> <p> <span> Whether they win, break, or both, the sled pull event is a serious mechanical challenge for competitors. The stress applied to these trucks is far beyond what they were originally built for.  </span> </p> <p> <span> Even with the best parts and builders available, you’re guaranteed to see some carnage.  </span> <span> <br/> <br/> </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h4> <strong> 2. DRAG RACING </strong> </h4> <h4> <span> <br/> </span> </h4> <p> <span> The drag racing portion of UCC is a major crowd pleaser. From purpose-built race trucks to nearly-stock daily drivers, you’ll see a massive variety of trucks hit the track.  </span> </p> <p> <span> Pass after pass, dozens and dozens of modified diesels lay it on the line for pride, points, or both. There’s a reason so many UCC attendees spend the whole weekend at the drag strip!  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h4> <strong> 3. DYNO COMPETITION </strong> </h4> <h4> <span> <br/> </span> </h4> <p> <span> A key component of the UCC is the dyno competition, where competitors test the horsepower and torque output of their rigs. It’s not uncommon for UCC competitors to break 2,500+ horsepower or more—though it can come at a cost.  </span> </p> <p> <span> If you hear an explosion at UCC, it’s most likely a truck coming apart in catastrophic fashion on the dyno. A quick Google search for “UCC dyno explosion” will tell you all you need to know </span> <span> .  </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> 5 Events in 1 </strong> </h3> <h3> <br/> </h3> <p> <span> As mentioned above, UCC is much, much more than a competition. From the massive truck show to the burnout competition, to the crowd-favorite Poor Diesel Challenge, there’s something for everyone.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> You don’t need a 1,000+ horsepower truck to have a great time at UCC—it’s truly an event for any diesel enthusiast.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> UCC has become a celebration of diesel culture, where enthusiasts can connect, share knowledge, and appreciate some of the best-built diesel trucks on the planet. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> UCC’s Impact on Diesel Performance </strong> </h3> <h3> <br/> </h3> <p> <span> The Ultimate Callout Challenge has had a significant impact on the diesel performance industry.

Unrealistic timelines for EV production, a lack of infrastructure, and loss of consumer freedom are chief among the complaints. These are all problems that President Trump is swiftly addressing in his 2nd term.  </a> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <br/> <div> <p> <font> <span> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> <span> <b> <span> </span> </b> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> </font> </p> </div> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <strong> Executive Orders: The First Strike Against EV Mandates </strong> </h4> <h4> <strong> <span>  </span> </strong> </h4> <p> <span> President Trump struck an immediate blow to government-forced EV production with an executive order titled  </span> <a href="https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/2025/01/22/trump-revoked-biden-ev-mandate-impact-mostly-symbolic/77847515007/" target="_blank"> “Unleashing American Energy” </a> <span> . </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Simply put, President Trump is rolling back Biden’s promise to make at least 50% of new vehicle sales electric by 2030. Though it does not seem that Biden’s administration had the power to enforce this in the first place—it speaks directly to President Trump’s position. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <strong> A Limited Focus on Electric Vehicles </strong> </h4> <h4> <strong> <span>  </span> </strong> </h4> <p> <span> Trump’s administration does not explicitly prioritize electric vehicles or green technology. Instead, his policies are rooted in consumer freedom, bolstering the American energy industry, and reducing regulatory burdens on traditional automakers.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Unlike his predecessor, Joe Biden, who introduced significant incentives and standards to encourage EV adoption, President Trump’s approach is more hands-off regarding the industry’s electrification efforts. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> In addition to the executive order mentioned above, President Trump intends to remove EV tax credits, while also halting billions of dollars in federal spending on EV infrastructure. He believes (as do we) that the United States is massively underutilizing readily available energy resources—something he intends to change.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <strong> Rolling Back Fuel Economy Standards </strong> </h4> <h4> <strong> <span>  </span> </strong> </h4> <p> <span> One of the clearest indicators of President Trump’s stance on EVs is his administration’s plan to rollback of fuel economy and emissions standards. The Biden-era fuel efficiency standards were designed to push automakers toward more fuel-efficient and zero-emission vehicles—regardless of what consumers wanted. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> President Trump aims to replace these with more open-ended emissions policies, which may significantly reduce the rate of annual fuel efficiency improvements required for new vehicles. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> This rollback will effectively slow the urgency for automakers to transition to EVs, as they could meet the new standards using improved internal combustion engines rather than investing heavily in electrification.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> It’s worth noting that many automakers have already invested billions into EV development, so it’s unlikely we’ll see them abandon EVs completely.  </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <strong> Opposition to Renewable Energy and “Green” Incentives </strong> </h4> <h4> <strong> <span>  </span> </strong> </h4> <p> <span> Trump frequently expresses skepticism about renewable energy initiatives, which indirectly impact the EV market. His administration’s support for fossil fuels and criticism of wind and solar energy signal a more realistic look at the future of energy production.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span>  This skepticism extended to infrastructure investments for EVs, such as charging stations, which received little to no federal support during his presidency. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Additionally, President Trump eliminating the federal EV tax credit would create uncertainty for automakers and consumers, potentially discouraging some from investing in electric vehicles. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <strong> Trade Policy and Supply Chain Challenges </strong> </h4> <h4> <strong> <span>  </span> </strong> </h4> <p> <span> Trump’s trade policies, particularly his tariffs on Chinese imports, will have a mixed impact on the EV industry. On one hand, the tariffs raised costs for automakers importing components such as lithium-ion batteries, a key component of EV production.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> On the other hand, Trump’s focus on reshoring manufacturing aligned with longer-term goals of creating domestic EV supply chains. While there were no major federal initiatives to support EV manufacturing, the trade policies indirectly emphasized the need for U.S.-based production. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong>   </strong> <strong> Automaker Responses to Trump’s Policies </strong> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> While Trump’s administration did not actively promote EVs, many automakers continued to invest heavily in electrification during his presidency. Companies like Tesla, Ford, General Motors, and startups such as Rivian maintained their commitment to EVs, driven by global demand and the need to remain competitive in international markets. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Interestingly, some automakers took a stand against Trump’s policies. For example, Ford and Honda sided with California when the state resisted the SAFE Vehicles Rule and maintained stricter emissions standards. This rift highlighted the divide between federal policies and industry trends during the Trump era. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h4> <strong> The Growing Resistance to Electric Vehicles </strong> </h4> <h4> <br/> </h4> <p> <span> Critics argue that Trump’s limited engagement with the EV sector represented a missed opportunity to position the U.S. as a global leader in electrification. As other countries, such as China and members of the European Union, invested heavily in EV infrastructure, manufacturing, and incentives, they argue that the U.S. risks falling behind in the global EV race. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> However, Trump’s policies also fueled support from states, private companies, and individual consumers who are skeptical or even opposed to forced EV adoption. This highlighted the growing resistance to EV mandates despite pressure from Democratic politicians. </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span>   </span> <strong> Conclusion: The Electric Future Under President Trump </strong> </p> <p> <strong> <span>  </span> </strong> </p> <p> <span> President Trump’s plans for electric vehicles are, at best, minimal. His administration is focused on supporting traditional energy sources and encouraging a free market rather than directly mandating EV adoption.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> While these policies will create challenges for the EV industry, the long-term growth of the EV segment is still likely. However, any growth in the EV market will more accurately reflect the needs of the American people, as opposed to government mandates. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> As concerns over unrealistic EV mandates grow, Trump’s second term as President will almost certainly serve as a beacon of rational expectations.  </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Thu, 23 Jan 2025 17:26:31 GMT http://www.fassride.com/what-are-president-trumps-plans-for-electric-vehicles-january-23-2025-chevy-dodge-fleets-ford-news-pickup-truck-owner-operator-president-trump-electric-vehicle-policy-president-trumps thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/roi-series-2011-2016-chevrolet-gmc-with-6-6-duramax For ’11-’16 Chevrolet/GMC 6.6 Duramax owners—watch how FASS filtration upgrades reduce wear, restores horsepower, and offer long-term return on investment. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <a href="/"> If you’ve ever wondered about the return on investment (ROI) of a  </a> <a href="/"> <strong> FASS Fuel System </strong> </a> <a href="/"> , this is the video series for you!

See what happens and how FASS Fuel Systems protect your diesel from the silent killer. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <a href="/"> In this article, we’ll highlight why air in diesel fuel can be an </a> <a href="/"> <strong> expensive </strong> </a> <a href="/"> nuisance. </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="/"> According to the Milwaukee School of Engineering, the #1 cause of hydraulic system failures is contaminants in the fluid—such as air. Why is this relevant? </a> </p> <blockquote> <a href="/"> Because the injection system in your diesel truck is essentially a hydraulic system—only instead of hydraulic fluid, you have diesel fuel. </a> <span> <br/> </span> </blockquote> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <br/> <div> <p> <font> <span> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> <span> <b> <span> </span> </b> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> </font> </p> </div> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> And, according to CAT, diesel fuel is at least 10% air when stationary. As fuel gets sloshed around in the tank and heated up during normal driving, that 10% figure goes up significantly. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> When air is trapped in fuel, it can cause significant problems in the fuel system and engine performance due to the sensitivity and precision of diesel engines. Here’s what happens: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> <span> 1. </span> </span> <strong> Disruption of Fuel Flow </strong> <span> <br/> Diesel fuel systems rely on a continuous flow of liquid fuel under high pressure. Air trapped in the fuel lines interrupts this flow, leading to inconsistent fuel delivery to the injectors. </span> </p> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> 2. </span> </span> <strong> Reduced MPG </strong> <span> <br/> Air in your fuel system can alter injection timing, impairing combustion and reducing fuel efficiency. Because less of the fuel is properly atomized and burned, more fuel is used to achieve the same output. </span> </p> <p> <span> At FASS, it’s common for our customers to notice a 1-3 MPG increase after installing one of our Fuel Systems. However, because so many factors play a role in MPG, we do not guarantee a measurable increase in MPG. </span> </p> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> 3. </span> </span> <strong> Loss of Power </strong> <span> <br/> When air is trapped, the engine may experience uneven fuel delivery, causing misfires or reduced power output. The engine might feel sluggish or struggle to maintain consistent performance. </span> </p> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> 4. </span> </span> <strong> Engine Stalling </strong> <span> <br/> Air pockets can cause intermittent fuel delivery, leading to engine stalls, particularly under load or during acceleration when consistent fuel delivery is critical. </span> </p> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> 5. </span> </span> <strong> Cavitation in the Injection Pump </strong> <span> <br/> If air enters the injection pump, it can cause cavitation. This occurs when air bubbles collapse under pressure, potentially damaging the pump’s internal components, reducing its efficiency, and shortening its lifespan. </span> </p> <p> <span> Certain injection pumps, such as the CP4, are particularly prone to failure as a result of cavitation. When a CP4 fails, the entire repair can run north of $10,000 or more, depending on the severity of the damage. </span> </p> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <p> <span> 6. </span> <strong> Injector Damage </strong> <span> <br/> Diesel injectors are designed to operate with liquid fuel. Air in the system can cause erratic injection patterns, leading to poor atomization, incomplete combustion, and long-term wear on the injectors. </span> </p> <p> <span> In our long-term fleet testing, we have found that a FASS Diesel Fuel System can increase injector life by 3x or more—simply by eliminating the air/vapor, water, and debris from the fuel. </span> </p> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> 7. </span> </span> <strong> Poor Combustion and Increased Emissions </strong> <span> <br/> Air in the fuel system disrupts the precise air-to-fuel ratio required for efficient combustion, resulting in incomplete burning of the fuel. This can lead to increased smoke, higher emissions, and soot buildup. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> How to Address Air in Diesel Fuel Systems: </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Install an Air Separation System: While all modern diesel trucks come factory-equipped with a fuel filter of some kind, the utter lack of air separation in factory fuel systems leaves a LOT to be desired. Installing an aftermarket air filtration system such as one from us here at FASS ( </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> Fuel Air Separation Systems </strong> </a> <span> ) eliminates the air and vapor from your fuel—preventing countless avoidable headaches. </span> </li> <li> <span> Inspect for Leaks: Whether your fuel system is stock or aftermarket, check for loose fittings, cracked fuel lines, or damaged seals that might allow air ingress. </span> </li> <li> <span> Maintain the System: Regular maintenance of the fuel filter, pump, and lines can prevent air from entering the system. </span> </li> <li> <span> Prime the System: After servicing your fuel system, follow the priming procedure recommended by the OEM or manufacturer (if aftermarket). </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> By ensuring the fuel system is free of air, you will maximize the performance, reliability, and efficiency of your diesel truck. </span> </p> <p> <span> If you have questions about a  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS Diesel Fuel System </strong> </a> <span>  for your truck, give us a call at (636) 433-5410, or email us to techsupport@fassride.com. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Thanks for reading! </span> </p> </div> Mon, 13 Jan 2025 17:39:45 GMT http://www.fassride.com/air-in-diesel-fuel-the-silent-killer thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/will-trump-make-deleting-your-diesel-truck-legal Curious whether deletes might become legal under Trump’s presidency? Explore what laws, the Clean Air Act, and federal enforcement say about emissions deletes. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <a href="/"> If you think like many diesel truck owners, Trump’s election victory is a step in the right direction for this country (we agree!). But as soon as the final ballot was counted, enthusiasts started wondering what might change regarding diesel performance under Trump’s second presidency. </a> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> And without a doubt, the #1 question is: </a> </p> <blockquote> <a href="/"> Will Trump make deleting (removing emissions equipment) diesel trucks legal? </a> </blockquote> <p> <a href="/"> So, let’s look at the evidence. </a> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <br/> <div> <p> <font> <span> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> <span> <b> <span> </span> </b> </span> </font> </p> <p> <font> </font> </p> </div> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> The Clean Air Act and the EPA </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> As of January 2025, the Clean Air Act (CAA) and the power granted by congress, which allows the EPA to enforce the CAA, is very much intact. If you reside in the United States, anywhere in the United States, </span> <strong> manufacturing, selling, or installing parts that disable or remove emissions equipment is federally illegal </strong> <span> —period. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> Despite what some guy said in a Facebook group, or what your buddy told you, deleting a diesel truck is a federal crime. There are </span> </span> <strong> no </strong> <span> exceptions for “race use”, “off-road only”, or any other workaround you might hear of. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> While many states, counties, and cities do not have specific laws regarding emissions equipment, that simply does not change federal law—which is what the Trump Administration would have to do to legalize deletes. </span> </p> <p> <span> For anyone thinking “I don’t care, I’ll do what I want”—we totally understand, and you can probably skip the rest of this article. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/d0fc1429/dms3rep/multi/3-10-1030x579.png" alt="for diesel truck on a dirt road"/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> EPA Enforcement is Alive and Well </strong> </h3> <h3> <br/> </h3> <p> <span> As of the writing of this article, the EPA and Department of Justice (DOJ) are still very active in their pursuit of CAA violators. If you pay attention to diesel industry news, you’ll notice that shops and manufacturers are still getting busted regularly for manufacturing, selling, and/or installing delete parts. </span> </p> <blockquote> <span> And, the DOJ is not playing games when it comes to penalties. </span> </blockquote> <p> <span> Just a few short years ago, getting caught with delete parts probably meant a big fine, some lawyer fees, and a slap on the wrist, legal consequences have only intensified. Today, diesel deletes can mean a federal prison sentence. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> This is partly due to the DOJ taking over enforcement duties from the EPA. While the EPA seemed more likely to create a civil case against violators and settle for a check—the DOJ seeks criminal charges and jail time. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/d0fc1429/dms3rep/multi/2-10-1030x579.png" alt="ford diesel truck on a dirt road"/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> What can President Trump do? </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> In order to make deleting diesel trucks legal, Trump would have to coordinate some major, major changes. Hypothetically speaking, the actual language in the CAA regarding emissions systems would actually have to be changed. While not an impossible feat, that certainly would not happen overnight. </span> </p> <p> <span> Reme </span> <span> <span> mber, simply removing or reducing the EPA’s power to enforce the CAA does </span> </span> <strong> not </strong> <span> legalize deleting. If that were to happen, removing emissions parts would still be federally illegal—it just wouldn’t be EPA agents knocking on your door. </span> </p> <blockquote> <span> In theory, CAA enforcement could simply be passed off to the DOJ. </span> </blockquote> <p> <span> Alternatively, there are  </span> <a href="https://clayhiggins.house.gov/2024/12/27/higgins-introduces-legislation-to-abolish-epa-return-authority-to-the-states/" target="_blank"> <strong> efforts in place </strong> </a> <span> <span>  to simply eliminate the EPA altogether and put CAA enforcement in the hands of individual states. Whether or not this legislation has even the </span> </span> <strong> slightest </strong> <span> chance of passing remains to be seen, but it’s certainly an interesting thought exercise. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Last but certainly not least, Trump’s  </span> <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/lee-zeldin-tapped-lead-environmental-protection-agency-trump/story?id=115748664" target="_blank"> <strong> appointments </strong> </a> <strong>   </strong> <span> <span> to various positions within his cabinet </span> </span> <strong> could </strong> <span> affect the EPA’s ability to pursue CAA violators. Most notably, Trumps choice to head the EPA—Rep. Lee Zeldin. </span> </p> <p> <span> Famously pro-business, Lee Zeldin is expected to shake up the EPA’s structure quite a bit—potentially making it FAR more challenging for EPA agents to pursue CAA violators. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> Again, this would </span> </span> <strong> not make deleting legal </strong> <span> <span> in any way. Though it could, in theory, make it a less ris </span> </span> <span> ky crime. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> So what’s next? </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Though it’s not what some people want to hear, deletes will likely remain federally illegal (and risky) for the foreseeable future. Especially if you’re in the diesel business, the smart move is to stay as far away from that part of the industry as you can </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Until there is new language in the CAA, massive change within the EPA/DOJ, or both, deleting will continue to be treated as a crime by the federal government. And for the unfortunate folks who get caught, punishment will range from six-figure fines to prison sentences and more. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Here at FASS, we are VERY excited to see President Trump take office.

Courts must now interpret ambiguous laws themselves rather than deferring to executive agency interpretations. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <a href="/"> <strong> Hope for the racing industry </strong> </a> <strong> . </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> Just a few short weeks ago, the Supreme Court </a> <a href="/"> <strong> struck down </strong> </a> <a href="/"> the Chevron Deference, and that’s a BIG deal. Why? We’ll explain below. </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> If you’re not sure what the Chevron Deference is, you’re not alone. Here’s the quick version: </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> The “Chevron deference” is a legal doctrine in the United States that comes from the 1984 Supreme Court case </a> <a href="/"> Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc </a> <a href="/"> . This doctrine involves judicial deference given to administrative actions. </a> </p> <p> <a href="/"> Under Chevron deference, courts must defer to a federal agency’s interpretation of an ambiguous or unclear statute that the agency administers. The doctrine is applied in two steps: </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Step One: Has Congress spoken directly to the precise question at issue? </strong> </a> <a href="/"> If the intent of Congress is clear, that is the end of the matter; courts and agencies must follow the clear intent of Congress. </a> </li> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Step Two: If the statute is silent or ambiguous, is the agency’s interpretation reasonable? </strong> </a> <a href="/"> If the statute is ambiguous, courts must defer to the agency’s interpretation as long as it is reasonable, even if the court would have interpreted the statute differently. </a> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="/"> Chevron deference is significant because it granted agencies considerable power in interpreting and implementing laws, recognizing their expertise in specific areas over generalist courts. </a> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> Reading between the lines. </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> If all that legal mumbo-jumbo doesn’t mean much to you, allow us to clarify. For the past 10+ years, 3-letter agencies have used the Chevron Deference to wield their power in legal battles. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> When a law wasn’t crystal clear, 3-letter agencies could simply enforce it </span> </span> <strong> as they understood it. </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Within the racing industry, the EPA has done exactly that—fining and arresting countless business owners, and using the Chevron Deference to win their cases in court. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> Because the language around “racing parts” (products that allow the removal of emissions equipment) is somewhat vague, the EPA has been able to </span> </span> <strong> interpret </strong> <span> the law in such a way that made them illegal. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> For professionals in the racing industry, it’s a no-win situation. Because courts would defer to the agency’s interpretation of the law, anyone charged with breaking the law (as interpreted by the EPA), was almost automatically guilty. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> Are “race parts” legal now? </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> <span> Let’s address the elephant in the room: removing emissions parts (deleting) is not, we repeat </span> </span> <strong> not </strong> <span> , legal simply because the Chevron Deference is gone. </span> </p> <p> <span> The Supreme Court’s decision simply removes one of the most powerful tools at the EPA’s disposal for arresting, fining, and suing racing industry professionals. That doesn’t mean the EPA won’t continue doing so, but it’s more complicated now. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> If you’re looking to </span> </span> <strong> legally </strong> <span> remove your DPF and roll coal on the street, keep dreaming. That’s not what this is about—and that type of bad behavior is a big reason why the EPA came after racing in the first place. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> A brighter, faster future. </strong> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Ok, so you won’t be able to buy EGR block-off plates at Autozone anytime soon (or ever).

Discover how clean fuel gives better performance. <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <a href="/"> Air in diesel fuel can have several detrimental effects on the performance and longevity of a diesel engine. Here are the primary issues caused by air in diesel fuel: </a> </p> <p> <a href="/">   </a> </p> <h3> <a href="/"> 1. </a> <a href="/"> <strong> Fuel Delivery Problems </strong> </a> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Cavitation: </strong> </a> <a href="/"> Air bubbles in the fuel can cause cavitation in the injection pump. This leads to a reduction in fuel pressure and irregular fuel delivery to the injectors. Cavitation can also cause physical damage to the fuel pump and other components due to the implosion of air bubbles. </a> </li> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Inconsistent Fuel Injection/Altered Timing </strong> </a> <a href="/"> : Air in the fuel lines can result in inconsistent or incomplete fuel injection and altered injection timing. This can cause rough engine operation, excessive heat generation, increased smoke output, and a noticeable loss of power. </a> </li> </ul> <p> <a href="/">   </a> </p> <h3> <a href="/"> 2. </a> <a href="/"> <strong> Engine Performance Issues </strong> </a> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Reduced Engine Power </strong> </a> <a href="/"> : Air in the fuel can reduce the amount of fuel being delivered to the engine, leading to a loss of power and poor acceleration. The engine may struggle to maintain speed, especially under load. </a> </li> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Stalling and Hard Starting </strong> </a> <a href="/"> : Air in the fuel system can make it difficult for a diesel engine to start and may cause it to stall unexpectedly. This is because the air disrupts the continuous flow of fuel needed for the engine to run smoothly. </a> </li> </ul> <p> <a href="/">   </a> </p> <h3> <a href="/"> 3. </a> <a href="/"> <strong> Fuel System Damage </strong> </a> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <ul> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Wear and Tear </strong> </a> <a href="/"> : Air can cause increased wear on fuel system components, such as the fuel pump and injectors. The presence of air leads to less lubrication, as diesel fuel itself acts as a lubricant for these components. Over time, this increased wear can lead to premature failure of these expensive parts. </a> </li> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Downstream Effects </strong> </a> <a href="/"> : Air can increase the amount of soot/smoke generated during the combustion cycle, which can cause premature clogging and ultimately failure of EGR and DPF systems. For more information on protecting your EGR system, click here. </a> </li> </ul> <p> <a href="/">   </a> </p> <h3> <a href="/"> 4. </a> <a href="/"> <strong> Combustion Issues </strong> </a> </h3> <h3> <br/> </h3> <ul> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Improper Combustion </strong> </a> <a href="/"> : Air in the fuel disrupts the precise fuel-air mixture needed for efficient combustion. This can result in incomplete combustion, leading to increased emissions, soot production, and carbon buildup in the engine. </a> </li> <li> <a href="/"> <strong> Increased Emissions </strong> </a> <a href="/"> : Poor combustion efficiency caused by air in the fuel can lead to higher emissions of pollutants such as unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. In modern emissions-equipped diesel trucks, this can lead to expensive, unnecessary repairs. </a> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> Mitigation and Maintenance: </strong> </h3> <ul> <li> <strong> Preventative Fuel System Upgrade </strong> <span> : Hands-down, the most effective method of preventing the issues caused by air/vapor in your fuel is to  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> upgrade your diesel truck’s filtration </strong> </a> <span> . By installing a  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> fuel/air separation system </strong> </a> <span> , you instantly restore horsepower, optimize MPG (results will vary), sharpen throttle response, and reduce soot/smoke output—among other benefits. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Proper Bleeding </strong> <span> : In stock or OEM applications, ensuring the fuel system is properly bled of air during maintenance and after any work on the fuel system can help prevent air from entering the fuel lines. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Regular Inspection </strong> <span> : Also in stock or OEM applications, regular inspection and maintenance of fuel lines, filters, and fuel pumps can help identify and rectify any issues that could lead to air ingress. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <p> <span> Air in diesel fuel can cause significant performance and reliability issues, including fuel delivery problems, reduced engine power, increased wear on fuel system components, and improper combustion.

It achieves this by removing air/vapor, water, and debris from fuel—ensuring a steady, clean supply to the engine. Here are the key functions and benefits of a FASS Fuel System: </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> Key Functions: </strong> </h3> <h3> <br/> </h3> <p> <strong> 1. Fuel Filtration </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Enhanced Filtration </strong> <span> : The FASS system includes industry-leading fuel filters that remove contaminants such as dirt, debris, and water from the fuel. This extreme level of filtration can TRIPLE the life of injection systems. </span> </li> <li> <span> Extended Filter Life: In most cases, FASS Fuel Filters only need to be serviced every 20,000-30,000 miles. While this alone can be a drastic cost savings over purchasing OEM filters, FASS Fuel Filters are significantly less expensive than many factory options. </span> </li> <li> <br/> </li> </ul> <p> <strong> 2. Air and Vapor Separation </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Air Removal </strong> <span> : One of the primary functions of a FASS system is to remove air and vapor from the fuel. Air in the fuel can cause cavitation, inconsistent fuel delivery, and poor engine performance. The FASS system separates and eliminates these air bubbles, ensuring a consistent and smooth flow of fuel. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Vapor Elimination </strong> <span> : The system also removes vapor, which can form in the fuel due to temperature changes. This ensures that only pure, liquid fuel reaches the engine, improving combustion efficiency and engine performance. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 3. Fuel Pump Enhancement </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Increased Fuel Pressure </strong> <span> : FASS Systems often include a high-performance fuel pump that flows FAR more than the stock setup, ensuring that the engine receives an adequate and steady supply of fuel. While most diesel trucks that utilize a FASS Fuel System are stock (or nearly stock) many diesel-powered competition vehicles also deploy them for this reason. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Reduced Pump Strain </strong> <span> : By supplying fuel more efficiently, FASS Systems can support any level of horsepower. From stock and mildly modified diesel trucks to 3,000+ horsepower dedicated racing machines—there is no amount of power we cannot support. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> Benefits: </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <strong> 1. Improved Engine Performance </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Smoother Operation </strong> <span> : The removal of air and contaminants leads to smoother engine operation, reducing issues like rough idling, stalling, and misfires. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Better Fuel Combustion </strong> <span> : Clean, air-free fuel ensures more efficient combustion, leading to increased power, better throttle response, and improved fuel economy. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 2. Enhanced Fuel Injector Life </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Protection from Contaminants </strong> <span> : By providing clean fuel, the FASS system helps protect fuel injectors from clogging and damage, extending their lifespan and maintaining optimal performance. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Consistent Fuel Delivery </strong> <span> : Steady fuel pressure and flow ensure that injectors operate efficiently and reliably. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 3.

Air/Vapor: </strong> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Symptoms </strong> <span> : Rough idle, loss of power, reduced MPG, increased smoke (soot) output, higher EGTS. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Effects </strong> <span> : The air/vapor trapped in diesel fuel (diesel is 10% air when stationary, per CAT) can damage expensive injection components, reduce MPG, rob horsepower, and dull throttle response, among other issues. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <strong> 3. Particulate Contamination: </strong> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Symptoms </strong> <span> : Clogged fuel filters, poor engine performance, and increased exhaust smoke. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Effects </strong> <span> : Particles such as dirt, dust, and rust can clog fuel filters and damage fuel injectors, reducing fuel efficiency and potentially causing engine wear. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <strong> 4. Gelling or Waxing (Cold Weather): </strong> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Symptoms </strong> <span> : Fuel flow issues, engine starting problems, and reduced power. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Effects: </strong> <span> <span> Diesel can gel or form wax crystals in cold temperatures, blocking fuel lines and filters. This restricts fuel flow to the engine and causes performance issues. </span> </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <strong> 5. Oxidation and Degradation: </strong> </p> <p> <strong> <span>  </span> </strong> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Symptoms </strong> <span> : Darkened fuel color, formation of gums and varnishes, and clogged filters. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Effects </strong> <span> : Over time, diesel fuel can oxidize and form gums and varnishes that clog fuel injectors and filters, leading to reduced engine efficiency and potential damage. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </li> </ul> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> Consequences of Using Contaminated Diesel Fuel: </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <strong> 1. Engine Damage: </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Contaminants can cause significant wear and tear on engine components, leading to costly repairs and potentially reducing the engine’s lifespan—particularly within the injection system. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <strong> 2. Reduced Fuel Efficiency: </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Contaminated fuel often leads to incomplete combustion and altered injection timing, which reduces fuel efficiency and increases fuel consumption. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 3. Increased Emissions: </strong> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Poor combustion due to contaminated fuel can produce higher emissions of pollutants such as unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter. This can also cause increased regens/DPF clogging on emissions-equipped trucks. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 4.

As great as modern Super Duties are, there’s always room for improvement.  </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="/"> With modern diesel trucks like the 2017+ Super Duty, reliability and performance are two of the biggest reasons owners purchase upgrades.

But are CAT filters the best, most effective option for filtering fuel? </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> Before we go any further, let’s address something head-on: </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h5> <a href="/"> <strong>   </strong> </a> <a href="/"> <strong> Yes, we like selling </strong> </a> <a href="/"> FASS-brand Fuel Filters. </a> </h5> <h5> <span> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <a href="/"> But it’s not simply about sales. The FASS R&amp;D team spent countless hours designing the most effective, 3rd-party proven Fuel Filters on the market. As a result, we believe (and the </a> <a href="/"> <strong> data shows </strong> </a> <a href="/"> ) that FASS Filters provide the purest possible fuel of any brand on the market. </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> Years ago, we would openly recommend CAT, Baldwin, Fleetguard, and a handful of other brands to our customers. Back then, other fuel filters were just as effective as ours—and we were happy to say that. </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> However, things have changed. </a> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> Filtration technology evolved. </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> With the introduction of our Extreme Water Separator (XWS), FASS Filtration took a giant leap into the 21st century. While brands like CAT still utilize a coalescing-style filter, our  </strong> <a href="https://fassride.com/shop/product-category/replacement-parts/replacement-filters/" target="_blank"> <strong> Extreme Water Separator </strong> </a> <strong>  features a Microglass element with a special water-absorbing layer that eliminates over </strong> <strong> 99% of the water from your diesel fuel </strong> <strong> . </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> This microglass element enables the XWS to trap water within the filter itself. Should you get an extremely contaminated tank of fuel, our XWS acts as a fail-safe—shutting your engine down before any water reaches the injection system. </strong> </p> <blockquote> <strong> Why is shutting my engine down a good thing? </strong> </blockquote> <p> <strong> Believe it or not, </strong> <strong> you want your truck to shut down </strong> <strong> when your tank is full of heavily contaminated fuel. If water-infused fuel reaches your injection system, thousands of dollars in damage can occur in mere seconds. </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> This is why we designed the XWS to act as a blockade if needed. Sure, being on the side of the road and getting towed to a shop is a hassle—but FAR less of a hassle than spending $5,000-$10,000 (or more) on new injection parts. </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> With our XWS in place, a bad batch of fuel simply means you’ll need to install fresh filters, and potentially drain the tank to eliminate any remaining contaminated fuel. </strong> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <strong> With older coalescing-style filters, water can pass through once the filter reaches capacity—sending water straight to your injection system. So, while CAT filters (or similar brands) might let your truck run for a few minutes longer on bad fuel than our XWS, it can come with a hefty price tag. </strong> </p> <p> <strong>   </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Don’t forget about fuel flow. </strong> </p> <p> <strong> <span>  </span> </strong> </p> <p> <span> Beyond filtration, most fuel filters on the market simply weren’t designed for high-flow applications that a  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> FASS Syste </a> <span> m flows. Whether your truck is stock, or heavily modified the FASS System continuously flows fuel at the flow rate of the pump. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> For instance, on a 165 GPH FASS System, whatever the engine isn’t consuming or returning to the tank the FASS flows 165 GPH regardless. We call this fuel polishing, without a filter rated for these flow rates you’re limiting the fuel purification ability. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Coalescing filters (of this size) simply cannot effectively remove water at these flow rates, risking pumping harmful contaminates into your injection system. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> As you exceed the flow rate a filter was designed for, they become less and less efficient. Simply put—as fuel flow goes up, filtration gets worse. </span> </p> <h5> <strong> At FASS, we’re pretty much all addicted to horsepower. </strong> </h5> <h5> <span> <br/> </span> </h5> <p> <span> So when we designed the  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/shop/product-category/replacement-parts/replacement-filters/" target="_blank"> <strong> XWS </strong> </a> <span> , we made sure it could keep up with even the most extreme diesel engines. Rated at 25 gallons per minute (GPM), the XWS is seriously efficient—filtering out the most water possible at ANY horsepower level. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> So, are CAT Filters bad? </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> CAT, among other brands, actually produces a pretty darn good fuel filter. They have earned their reputation as a solid option, and we won’t tell you otherwise. </span> </p> <blockquote> <strong> But, are they the best? The data says otherwise. </strong> <span>  </span> </blockquote> <p> <span> And you don’t have to take our word on it. We published a </span> <strong>   </strong> <a href="https://fassride.com/fass-fuel-filters-versus-competition/" target="_blank"> <strong> 3rd party filter comparison </strong> </a> <span>  from SGS Laboratories, and are proud to say the  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/shop/product-category/replacement-parts/replacement-filters/" target="_blank"> <strong> XWS </strong> </a> <span>  finished exactly where we designed it to—number one. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> <span> In summary, FASS Filters are not, and will never be the </span> </span> <strong> only </strong> <span> good option for filtering your fuel. However, if you want the purest fuel possible, the best protection for your injection system, and the most insurance against contamination, our XWS is at the top of the heap. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> If you have questions about </span> <strong>   </strong> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS Fuel Systems </strong> </a> <span> , FASS Filters, or anything else diesel fuel system related, give us a shout!

And despite being $5.00+ a gallon in some places, diesel fuel is packed with contaminants.  </span> </p> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <h4> <strong> Contaminant #1: Air </strong> </h4> <h4> <span> <br/> </span> </h4> <p> <span> <span> According to CAT, diesel fuel contains at least 10% air </span> </span> <strong> when stationary </strong> <span> . Now, imagine the fuel in your tank sloshing back and forth, for hours on end, on a 95-degree summer day. How much air and vapor do you think is trapped in your fuel at that point (hint: it’s a LOT).  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Air in a fuel system is more than just a hassle—it’s expensive. When aerated fuel is sent through your 6.7 Cummins’ injection system, metal-on-metal contact (called cavitation) can occur, sending flakes of metal everywhere.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h6> <strong> This alone can cause thousands of dollars in damage to your CP3/CP4 and injectors.  </strong> </h6> <h6> <span> <br/> </span> </h6> <p> <span> As if that wasn’t enough, air can throw off your injection timing—resulting in lost horsepower, increased soot, poor throttle response, and higher EGTs. Simply removing the air from diesel fuel can instantly improve how a diesel truck drives! </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> FASS stands for Fuel Air Separation System. And since 2003, we’ve been engineering the most effective air/vapor filtration for Cummins diesel engines on the market. Our  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> Titanium Signature Series Fuel Systems </strong> </a> <span>  are the #1 solution for removing entrained air and vapor from diesel fuel—ensuring the absolute best performance, power, and injection component life.  </span> </p> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <h4> <strong> Contaminant #2: Water </strong> </h4> <h4> <span> <br/> </span> </h4> <p> <span> Diesel truck owners around the world have painful, expensive memories of the damage watery diesel fuel can do. While air can cause severe issues over time, water in your fuel can spell disaster in mere minutes.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> And all it takes is filling up at the wrong fuel station. Often, diesel owners who experience catastrophic injection system failure bought the fuel from some random station while driving long distances.  </span> </p> <p> <strong> <br/> </strong> </p> <h6> <strong> Other times, a water-logged tank of fuel can come from the same station you’ve filled up at hundreds of times.  </strong> </h6> <h6> <span> <br/> </span> </h6> <p> <span> This is where an  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> upgraded Fuel System </strong> </a> <span>  can save you thousands of dollars, and endless headaches. By removing over 99% of the water (3rd party verified) found in diesel fuel, the  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/shop/product/shop-category/2018-2021-3-0l-powerstroke/fass-xws3002-extreme-water-separator/" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS Extreme Water Separator (XWS) </strong> </a> <span>  ensures your 6.7 Cummins is fully protected at all times.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Better still, the FASS XWS, which comes standard with every  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS Fuel System </strong> </a> <span> , will act as a blockade if you happen to fill up with a bad batch of fuel. When extreme water contamination occurs, the  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/shop/product/shop-category/2018-2021-3-0l-powerstroke/fass-xws3002-extreme-water-separator/" target="_blank"> FASS XWS </a> <span>  will shut your Cummins down, preventing the water from reaching your injection system.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <span> While extreme contamination like this is </span> </span> <strong> very </strong> <span> rare, owners can typically just swap in fresh FASS Filters, and be on their way! In some cases, it’s a good idea to drain the fuel tank as well—which is still thousands less than buying new injection components! </span> </p> <p> <span>   </span> </p> <h4> <strong> Contaminant #3: Debris </strong> </h4> <h4> <span> <br/> </span> </h4> <p> <span> While air and water are often hard to spot with the naked eye, debris in your fuel can seem a bit more obvious. But, that’s not to say it can’t cause costly issues if left untreated.  </span> </p> <p> <strong> <br/> </strong> </p> <h6> <strong> To be fair, OEM 6.7 Cummins fuel filters do a decent job of removing larger debris—but there’s room for improvement </strong> <span> .  </span> </h6> <h6> <span> <br/> </span> </h6> <p> <span> By upgrading your 6.7 Cummins with a  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> Fuel Filtration System </strong> </a> <span>  with improved an Micron rating, you’re ensuring that nearly all debris will be removed—allowing only pure diesel fuel to reach your injection system.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> This is why  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS Titanium Signature Series Fuel Systems </strong> </a> <span>  remove debris as small as 2 Microns absolute. Why take fuel filtration to such an extreme degree? </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Simply put, the purer your diesel fuel, the more your truck (and wallet) benefit. As any unused diesel fuel circulates through a  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS Fuel System </strong> </a> <span>  and back to the tank, it’s becoming cleaner and cleaner with every pass.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> This is an effect we call “fuel polishing”, and it guarantees your 6.7 Cummins is as efficient, powe </span> <span> rful, and reliable as possible.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> Have questions about a fuel filter upgrade for your Cummins? </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Call our team at (636) 433-5410, or shoot us an email at  </span> <a href="mailto:techsupport@fassride.com" target="_blank"> <strong> techsupport@fassride.com </strong> </a> <span> , and we’ll be happy to help!

The most powerful Duramax diesel engine to date, it didn’t take long for owners to start modifying their L5P-equipped Silverados and Sierras to make them more fun, capable, and reliable.  </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="/"> But, with endless options for upgrades, where do you start? From cosmetic items like lift kits and custom headlights to performance upgrades like custom tuning and air intakes, there’s no shortage of options for your L5P Duramax.  </a> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="/"> With that in mind, we’ve put together a list of the top 5 most popular upgrades for the L5P Duramax (in no particular order). Keep reading below to learn more!  </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <strong> The Top 5 Upgrades for the L5P Duramax </strong> </h2> <h2> <br/> </h2> <h3> <strong> Custom Tuning </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Though the L5P makes nearly 450 horsepower and over 900 lb.-ft of torque from the factory, thousands of Duramax owners purchase custom tuning to push the power even further. But the benefits of aftermarket emissions-on tunes aren’t just about grunt.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> When purchased from a reputable company, custom tunes for your L5P Duramax can also improve efficiency—allowing your dollars to take you further.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Best of all, installing custom tuning on your L5P Duramax is easier than ever. Up until recently, tuning an L5P was a costly upgrade—often running $5,000 or more! Thanks to recent software advancements by several popular tuning companies, the cost (and complexity) has been reduced significantly.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h3> <strong> Fuel Systems </strong> </h3> <h3> <span> <br/> </span> </h3> <p> <span> Simply put, upgrading the fuel filtration on your L5P Duramax is “insurance for your injection system”. Though it ditched the notorious CP4 pump, the L5P’s injection components are still vulnerable to contaminated fuel.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Despite being $5.00 or more a gallon in some areas, diesel fuel contains air, water, and debris. If left untreated, these contaminants can (and often do) wreak havoc in modern diesel injection systems like the one found on the L5P.  </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> With injector replacements running $2,000+ and replacement HP4 pumps coming in at $600+ for parts alone, it’s easy to see how injection system failures on the L5P Duramax get expensive in a hurry.  </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> That’s where FASS comes in!

Entrained air impacts injection timing, which reduces power and efficiency while increasing emissions. In some cases, the timing changes caused by entrained air can cause damage and eventual failure of expensive engine components. By eliminating the air found in diesel, a FASS Fuel System restores injection timing, increases power output, optimizes fuel efficiency, and reduces emissions. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Call us:  </span> <a href="tel:6364335410" target="_blank"> <strong> 636-433-5410 </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> email us:  </span> <a href="mailto:techsupport@fassride.com" target="_blank"> <strong> techsupport@fassride.com </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHL9yZA1wX-LmdQD7-pRL9A" target="_blank"> Subscribe to our YouTube Channel Here. </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Shop now  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass/" target="_blank"> <strong> https://fassride.com/find-my-fass/ </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Be sure to follow us on social media! </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Facebook –  </span> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FASSFuelSystems" target="_blank"> <strong> https://www.facebook.com/FASSFuelSystems </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Instagram –  </span> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/fassfuelsystems" target="_blank"> <strong> https://www.instagram.com/fassfuelsystems </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Twitter –  </span> <a href="https://www.twitter.com/FassFuel" target="_blank"> <strong> https://www.twitter.com/FassFuel </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> TikTok –  </span> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@fassfuelsystems" target="_blank"> <strong> https://www.tiktok.com/@fassfuelsystems </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Want even more FASS Check out FASS Motorsports @ </span> <a href="https://fassmotorsports.com/" target="_blank">   </a> <a href="https://fassmotorsports.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> https://fassmotorsports.com/ </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Need Suspension Parts?

In real-world conditions, entrained air and air vapor can become so problematic that injection systems fail, leaving owners stranded. However, injection system failures are more than inconvenient—they’re expensive. It’s not uncommon for replacement parts and labor to cost thousands, in addition to the lost productivity from a truck being down for repair. That’s why FASS Diesel Fuel Systems are engineered from the ground up to eliminate air from your diesel fuel. By removing all the entrained air and vapor, our fuel systems improve efficiency, power, drivability, and reliability for a FRACTION of what most injection system failures would cost.

In 3rd party testing, our Extreme Water Separator has been shown to remove over 99% of the water found in diesel fuel. If left untreated, the water found in diesel fuel at the pump can cost you THOUSANDS in injection system repairs and downtime. Fortunately, with the recent release of our Industrial Series Fuel Systems, FASS now protects a wide variety of commercial trucks! Currently, we have complete fuel systems available for Detroit (DD13, DD15, and DD16), CAT, Paccar, Cummins, and more!

Fortune 500 companies in the diesel industry have known about water, debris, and air contamination for decades! Without upgraded filtration, diesel-powered trucks and equipment are at risk for costly repairs as a direct result of fuel contamination. To make matters worse, the current parts shortage means owners can be stranded for months without their trucks! That’s where we come in. As the industry leader in diesel fuel system technology, we provide 3rd-party proven filtration that prolongs injection component (including CP4) life. Our fuel systems eliminate over 99% of the water/moisture found in diesel fuel, along with the entrained air, and debris down to 2 Micron. Installing a FASS Fuel System ensures that you’re getting the purest fuel possible—and preventing premature injection system wear.

Unfortunately, this heavily contaminated fuel is typically being used by EXPENSIVE industrial and agricultural equipment!

In the highly unlikely event your FASS Diesel Fuel System comes in for service, our expert staff will have it checked, serviced, and shipped back to you in a matter of days. Compare this to current lead times for OEM warranty repairs—which can span weeks or months depending on make and model, parts availability, etc. At FASS, we understand that having your truck out of service is unacceptable—and strive to engineer the most reliable fuel systems on the market, period. This extreme focus on continuous testing and product improvement means our warranty department can remain small and extremely efficient. After all, we design each FASS Diesel Fuel System to outlast your truck! However, should the need arise, our warranty department is among the fastest in the industry—with a proven track record of timely, effective service. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Thanks for watching! </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO4O1qYFYFsFH80fVpjjPDw" target="_blank"> <strong> Subscribe to our YouTube channel Here! </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO4O1qYFYFsFH80fVpjjPDw" target="_blank"> Shop now </a> <span> <span> </span> </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass/" target="_blank"> <strong> https://fassride.com/find-my-fass/ </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO4O1qYFYFsFH80fVpjjPDw" target="_blank"> Be sure to follow us on social media! </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO4O1qYFYFsFH80fVpjjPDw" target="_blank"> Facebook </a> <span> <span> - </span> </span> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/FASSFuelSystems" target="_blank"> <strong> https://www.facebook.com/FASSFuelSystems </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO4O1qYFYFsFH80fVpjjPDw" target="_blank"> Instagram </a> <span> <span> - </span> </span> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/fassfuelsystems" target="_blank"> <strong> https://www.instagram.com/fassfuelsystems </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO4O1qYFYFsFH80fVpjjPDw" target="_blank"> Twitter </a> <span> <span> - </span> </span> <a href="https://www.twitter.com/FassFuel" target="_blank"> <strong> https://www.twitter.com/FassFuel </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO4O1qYFYFsFH80fVpjjPDw" target="_blank"> TikTok </a> <span> <span> - </span> </span> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@fassfuelsystems" target="_blank"> <strong> https://www.tiktok.com/@fassfuelsystems </strong> </a> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO4O1qYFYFsFH80fVpjjPDw" target="_blank"> Want even more FASS?

Diesel fuel contains paraffin and will solidify and gel when the temperature drops. At 32 degrees Fahrenheit the paraffin in diesel crystalizes and becomes cloudy. When it really gets cold, in the 10-15 degrees Fahrenheit range then the paraffin will gel and cause clogged fuel lines and filters. Some signs that your diesel fuel could be gelling in cold weather can be the engine not starting, sluggish throttle response, improper acceleration, and marked differences in fuel pressure indicators. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <strong> DIESEL FUEL GELLING PREVENTION TIPS </strong> </h2> <h2> <br/> </h2> <p> <span> How to prevent diesel fuel gelling? Before answering this question, first let’s examine what type of diesel fuel you are putting in your truck. Diesel fuel at the pump is typically offered in #1 or #2 varieties. What’s the difference? #1 diesel fuel generally has lower energy components and also has paraffin removed from the chemical mix. The absence of paraffin means that #1 diesel fuel will not gel in colder weather and is generally more liquid and has less viscosity than #2. On the other hand, #2 diesel fuel is what is most commonly found at the pump and is slightly more viscous than #1 and burns more slowly which increases fuel mileage. In the colder winter months, many truck drivers turn to a mixture of #1 and #2 diesel to combat the effects of fuel gelling in colder weather. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Adding an additive fuel treatment is another diesel fuel gelling prevention tip, as they combat the gelling effect by preventing crystals from forming in the paraffin. Other diesel fuel gelling prevention tips include idling the engine at all times to keep the fuel warm to prevent gelling. Although idling is effective, it is not recommended due to the lowering of fuel economy and wear and tear it produces on the engine. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> FASS </a> <strong>  FUEL GELLING SOLUTIONS </strong> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Here at FASS, customers have an easy built-in solution to our fuel air separation systems to prevent diesel fuel from gelling in cold weather. Customers who purchase our Titanium Signature Series fuel air separation systems get two built in electric heater ports that provide easy installation of our electric heater kit. Each electric heater kit provides a heating element that produces 100 watts of electric heat to warm cloudy or gelled diesel fuel. When installed, the heater will begin warming the diesel fuel once the key is in the on position and will automatically shut off after the proper fuel temperature has been reached. FASS recommends customers install 2 of the electric heater kits if you are running in temperatures below minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit whereas otherwise one electric heater kit should suffice. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Or, another newer option that we’re offering customers is our High Output Fuel Heater Disk that automatically powers on when the temperature drops below 34 degrees Fahrenheit to counter the gelling effect. The powerful heating element in the High Output Fuel Heater Disk provides 300 watts of electric heat to warm gelled diesel fuel and ensure your rig is running at optimum performance. We have tested our electric heater kit’s starting performance with #2 diesel fuel down to minus 30 degrees Fahrenheit and have run at -40 degrees Fahrenheit! FASS simply can’t be beat in cold weather performance and FASS is committed to keeping you running even in the coldest weather conditions! </span> </p> <p> <strong> <br/> </strong> </p> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> </div> Wed, 27 Nov 2019 21:13:23 GMT http://www.fassride.com/fass-diesel-fuel-gelling-prevention-tips thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/sema-truck-concepts-to-check-out <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> It’s that time of year again…you know the annual Specialty Equipment Market Association or more popularly known SEMA show kicks off this week in Las Vegas.

Diesel pickup and class 8 trucks have seen some important changes in their fuel injection systems over the past 10-20 years. Increasingly, modern high-pressure common rail systems (HPCR) operate at pressures in the range or excess of 30,000 psi. Fuel injectors that are operating under these high pressures have much tighter tolerances and can be affected by the slightest contamination of fuel either by air bubbles, dirt, water, bacteria, or any other unwanted particles entering the fuel stream. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Modern diesel fuel injectors have smaller diameter nozzle openings where the fuel is squirted through into the combustion chamber. Any air or particle contamination in the fuel can cause the injector timing to become faulty, cause the blocking of nozzles, induce altered spray patterns, or worse reduce the fluid dampening effect of diesel fuel and create conditions for injector failure. As air and vapor enter the injector orifices at increased pressures and cause uneven orifice openings it creates a cutting torch effect which damages your injectors and throws of their timing and efficiency resulting in lost horsepower/torque. Fuel injection is designed to inject a predetermined amount of fuel at a predetermined time. Air occupies space in the fuel and changes the amount of fuel being delivered which retards injection timing and can also result in lower gas mileage in addition to reduced horsepower and torque. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Here at  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS </strong> </a> <span> , we offer a dedicated diesel fuel air, water, and particle separation system that will deliver the purest and cleanest fuel to your engine.

Most of the European countries have a strong affinity for diesel engines than petrol engines. For instance, 96% of commercial vehicles in the United Kingdom are powered by diesel. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Just like in petrol, diesel engines experience mechanical problems in the diesel filtration system and around the fuel pump. Chances of a diesel fuel pump malfunctioning are higher because it takes much more effort to combust diesel than petrol. If you own a diesel engine powered vehicle, here are some simple warnings that your diesel fuel pump may need replacement. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 1. High-Pitched Sound </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> It is common for vehicles to produce sound when they start or when they are accelerating. However, the sound produced by your vehicle should not turn heads. If your vehicle is making high-pitched sound, just know that there is something wrong with the diesel fuel pump. If you hear your vehicle make unusual or scraping sounds, it is high time you replace the entire diesel fuel supply system. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 2. Low Fuel Pressure </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Thousands of diesel-fueled vehicle owners have experienced this problem, but they fail to understand what is wrong with their vehicles. Most of them have a feeling that it has something to do with fuel contamination. However, if your diesel fuel pump is not working properly, there is a high chance that there will be low fuel pressure. The rest of the parts within the pump system will be functioning normally, but your vehicle will have trouble starting. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 3. Malfunctioning Fuel Filters </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel filters tend to wear out within a short period. All people using diesel engines are well aware that they will have to keep replacing their diesel filtration system regularly so that they can keep their engines functioning as expected. However, sometimes your filtration system might be wearing out within a day or two, which is suspicious. If you’re experiencing such situations, you have a problem with diesel fuel transfer pump, and it needs to be replaced. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 4. Acceleration Problems </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Many people, especially those with very little knowledge about their fuel system attribute acceleration problems to engine failure. However, engine failure has nothing to do with acceleration or deceleration of your vehicle. The problem emanates from your fuel pump. If your diesel fuel pump has been damaged and does not have sufficient power to draw enough diesel to the combustion tubes, there is a high chance that your vehicle will fail to accelerate. In such situations, you need to replace your fuel pump. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 5. Sudden Stops </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Sudden stops seem to be a common occurrence with diesel vehicles. There is no doubt that you have, on several occasions, come across a truck or heavy earth-moving machine on the roadside after experiencing sudden stops. You might have concluded that it is a problem with older automobiles, but new cars are also experiencing the same problem. If your diesel engine suddenly stops, you should know that the  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel fuel pump </strong> </a> <span>  is damaged. It is not supplying sufficient diesel to the combustion system due to low pressure. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> 6. Engine Breakdowns </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The scariest matter about your car is getting to know that you have an engine breakdown. Sometimes it could be a minor problem, but in other cases, you could find yourself on an extreme edge where you have to replace your engine. Diesel fuel transfer pumps play a significant role in the breakdown of your engine. Low pressure and failure to supply sufficient fuel to the engine systems lead to severe damages. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> If your diesel system has been exhibiting these signs, you need to have it replaced within the shortest time possible before the situation gets worse. FASS Diesel Fuel Systems have the solution to your damaged fuel pump, and they will provide immediate and reliable replacement services. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 02 Oct 2019 21:37:39 GMT http://www.fassride.com/is-your-diesel-fuel-pump-damaged-find-out-below thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/diesel-truck-repair-projects-you-can-do-yourself-and-3-you-cant <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Sure, everyone loves a good deal.

Long a distant third place contender to Ford and GM, Dodge Ram is starting to turn heads with its newly upgraded pickup truck line and improved sales figures. A newly redesigned fifth generation Ram 1500 series is leading the way for Dodge in its Ram pickup truck category line.

The settlement resolved alleged violations of tampering with and removing factory compliant software that controls the emissions of diesel truck engines, specifically focusing on Heavy Duty Diesel Engines used in class 8 semi-truck trailers. To understand how we got here, let’s take a step back and look at the history of the EPA’s regulations related to the enforcement of the Clean Air Act (CAA) and how it relates to diesel engines. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> We all know that diesel engines are incredibly efficient at producing loads of horsepower and torque for pulling big loads and doing heavy-duty work. As diesel engines are that much more efficient than gasoline engines in regards to producing much needed horsepower and torque they also tend to throw off a lot of nitrogen oxides (NOx) due to the high temperatures that they operate at compared to gasoline engines. Diesel engines produce more energy for a given volume and run at higher combustion temperatures therefore making them much more efficient. But the higher temperature conditions also favor the production of more NOx gases. Emissions regulators began to solve this problem in the early 2000’s with the introduction of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) devices coupled with more robust “aftertreatment” exhaust designs such as Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) and Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) devices that combine with Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) to lower NOx emissions produced by diesel engines. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Within all of this added complexity, engine manufacturers have installed Electronic Control Modules (ECM) along with a variety of hardware and software sensor elements that monitor emissions to ensure the vehicle stays within EPA compliance. </span> <strong>   </strong> <a href="https://www.ezlynk.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> Electronic engine tuners </strong> </a> <span>  are sold to boost diesel engine performance and/or to also improve fuel economy and some of the tuners also are able to “defeat” the diesel engines programming so that the disablement of emission control related elements of the ECM’s programming can be completed and further modifications or removal of the engines emissions control elements can be made. This is where the EPA and the Department of Justice have stepped in and levied significant fines on anyone knowingly tampering with or disabling the vehicles emissions control systems. Fines have been significant as evidenced by the $1.1M PDI settlement and the  </span> <a href="https://www.overdriveonline.com/engine-tinkerers-beware-emissions-tech-steep-fines-and-increased-enforcement-put-the-brakes-on-illegal-engine-mods/" target="_blank"> <strong> $6.5 million Bully Dog settlemen </strong> </a> <a href="https://www.overdriveonline.com/engine-tinkerers-beware-emissions-tech-steep-fines-and-increased-enforcement-put-the-brakes-on-illegal-engine-mods/" target="_blank"> t </a> <span> . </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Estimates of the size of the electronic tuning box market are hard to come by but it is safe to say that it is a healthy segment of the growing diesel truck aftermarket parts and accessories market. Although prior EPA crackdowns have focused on car and light truck violations, the PDI case seems squarely aimed at the class 8 over the road trucking market segment which has ramifications for owner operators that are looking to improve their freight hauling capacity through engine performance upgrades. Let’s be clear that tuning of your diesel engine is not illegal but it does help to ask the shop and/or brand selling the tuning box and tuning service if they are compliant with  </span> <a href="https://www.epa.gov/enforcement/national-compliance-initiative-stopping-aftermarket-defeat-devices-vehicles-and-engines" target="_blank"> <strong> EPA regulations </strong> </a> <span>  and  </span> <a href="https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/our-work/programs/truck-and-bus-regulation" target="_blank"> <strong> California Air Resources Board Regulations (CARB) </strong> </a> <span> .

Every part of the system is tasked with ensuring the bad stuff does not make it to the engine and cause it to lock up. Taking care of your diesel filtration system is a great way to take care of your diesel motor. </span> </p> <p> <span> One of the most important parts of any  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel filtration system </strong> </a> <span>  is the diesel fuel filters. The filters are the main part of the system. High-quality diesel fuel filters get the job done nicely. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> What is the Main Job of the Diesel Filtration System? </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel systems are one of the most vital parts of a diesel engine. The right filtration system ensures that debris like rust, scale, and dirt do not get into the engine and they also keep water out as well. These impurities can wreak havoc on a diesel engine. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel supply system configurations include typically two filter points. Diesel fuel filters are full-flow filters. All the fuel has to go through the filtration system to ensure that the fuel does not contain contaminants before it reaches the injector. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Your Fuel System </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel engines are reliant on precise fuel injection to operate. Unlike gasoline engines, they do not rely on a spark for combustion. Diesel engines rely on hot air and precision measurement of the fuel injectors. The fuel system includes: </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <span> Fuel tank </span> </li> <li> <span> Fuel lines </span> </li> <li> <span> Fuel filtration system </span> </li> <li> <span> Fuel pumps </span> </li> <li> <span> Fuel injectors </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Each part of the process is vital to your engine running at its optimal. The filtration system plays a key role in your engine delivering the energy efficiency and reliability that you expect. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Fuel Lines Are The Easy Part </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Typically the lines from the fuel tank never fail unless they are exposed to extreme conditions. Rarely do fuel lines have to be replaced if regular general maintenance is carried out. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Universal Fuel Pumps </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel pumps can fail especially when the filtration system is not maintained as recommended. Many drivers choose universal fuel pumps because they are easier to maintain (parts are more available) and deliver a sure level of reliability. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Fuel Injectors </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel injectors are another part that can fail if the filtration system is not maintained regularly. If debris makes it to the injector heads there is a good possibility that the engine will not turn over. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> The Bottom Line </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Most fuel line issues can be prevented with regular filtration system maintenance. Turn to a trusted supplier for your fuel system needs and get the parts you can depend on. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 18 Sep 2019 21:50:16 GMT http://www.fassride.com/your-diesel-filtration-system-is-more-important-than-you-think thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/the-importance-of-using-the-right-diesel-fuel-filter-supplier <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> When it comes to finding the right supplier for your diesel fuel filters, there can be a number of different hurdles. You want to be sure that you are getting the best parts that last and provide quality, while also staying within the limits of your budget. With a wide range of different suppliers available to wholesale distributors and consumers alike, it is hard to know which ones are worth your time, and which ones you are better off ignoring. By educating yourself about the different options available to you, you will be much better prepared when it comes time to make a final choice for your diesel fuel filters. If you follow our simple guide below, you will that much closer to finding all the best parts to meet your professional goals. Let’s get started. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> What attributes should I look for in a diesel fuel filters supplier? </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> To begin, it helps to have some basic knowledge about the state of diesel fuel filters in the current day. Understanding where a supplier’s interests lie helps you to determine how to find the best deal, while also ensuring quality. Most diesel fuel filters suppliers have a number of guidelines that they have to abide by. This means that while their products can ensure compliance with standards, they may have to adjust prices depending on the nature of your specific industry, the volume you are requesting, and your location. When you consider these factors, you may have some more clarity on why certain suppliers behave the way they do. It is perhaps always your best bet to establish a strong, ongoing relationship with a single supplier so that you can build trust and reduce friction when it comes to getting accurate, timely orders filled. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Of course, the type of diesel fuel systems that you are looking to provide parts for will have an impact on the diesel filter manufacturers you choose. Take, for example, the baseline consideration of fuel injection pressures. To maximize the chances of combustion, fuel injection pressures begin extremely high, ranging from 30,000 psi or more, to force fuel into tiny droplets and increase the surface area of the fuel. Taking these technical processes into consideration will help you when you are looking for a supplier to provide you with the right diesel fuel filters. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> How should I choose a supplier for my diesel fuel filters? </strong> </h2> <h2> <br/> </h2> <p> <span> It is always a wise move to look for suppliers that have demonstrated experience in the field as a whole. What this means for you is that you should always be able to establish a supplier’s credentials. Sometime you may have to ask questions, but any dependable supplier will be happy to address your concerns in order to ease your mind. For example, it is prudent to ask them about their experience with companies in similar industries to yours. You may also find it helpful to ask how much experience they have with diverse diesel filtration systems. Of course, more obvious indicators of legitimacy, such as certifications, licenses, and insurance are a good thing to ask about, too. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Asking trusted colleagues, peers, and members of your industry community may also help to lead you in the right direction. Often times a supplier’s worth is proven in the testimonies of its past customers. Finding a supplier that values the opinions of their clients helps to establish long lasting, trusting relationships that can weather all kinds of market conditions. When you know you can put faith into your supplier, it becomes much easier to do business with them over many years. The combination of industry knowledge and excellent customer service cannot be overlooked when it comes to diesel fuel filter suppliers. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> While finding a new supplier for your diesel fuel filters can present a unique set of challenges and obstacles, it is an important part of doing business in today’s world.

Water, dirt, air, and vapor gradually accumulate and entrain causing decreases in fuel delivery performance that ultimately affect your fuel mileage. Your stock fuel filter can only do so much to compensate for the buildup of entrained air and vapor as well as excess dirt and other particulates that accumulate over time in your fuel tanks.

They’re primarily relied upon for their exceptional highway mileage rating and stellar efficiency. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> That being said, any vehicle is only as good as its parts; if one piece of the puzzle is damaged or broken, the entire structure will fail. Diesel fuel pumps play a major role in these efficient engines and can cause significant problems in  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel fuel systems </strong> </a> <span>  if they malfunction or break down. Let’s take a look at three signs that indicate a failing diesel fuel lift pump. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <ol> <li> <strong> The engine stalls. </strong> <span>  Many people believe that they have run out of gas or that there is an issue with their gas gauge when they find themselves sitting on the side of the road with a stalled engine. While that is certainly a possibility, don’t rule out the fuel pump; if it quits working, the fuel injectors will not have any fuel to pump and no internal combustion will occur. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> The engine overheats. </strong> <span>  This not-so-obvious indicator occurs when the fuel pump is heated frequently as a result of stop-and-go driving patterns. It overheats, causing the engine to overheat as well. If you let the engine cool down until it functions properly again, only to overheat once more, your fuel pump is most likely responsible. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> You’re hearing weird noises. </strong> <span>  Unusual noises are always a worry when they’re coming from under your hood. If the flow to the fuel injection system is not consistent, you may experience hesitant starts and take-offs as well as sputtering or backfiring. Of course, the only way to tell for sure that your fuel pump is the culprit is to take your vehicle to a mechanic for a professional diagnosis. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Maintaining the health of your diesel engine means caring for each part of its fuel system. Diesel fuel systems possess many components, each of which could fail and cause further (costly) damage to the rest of the vehicle. By keeping an eye out for the above symptoms of a failing fuel pump, you can rest assured that at least one of these components is doing its job. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Mon, 29 Jul 2019 21:58:11 GMT http://www.fassride.com/failing-fuel-pumps-3-signs-and-symptoms-to-watch-out-for thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/basics-of-diesel-engine-fuel-systems <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> The average diesel engine can get somewhere between 400 and 800 miles per tank. But if the filtration system has a fail-point, the system becomes inefficient. Diesel engines are efficient, but it’s also important to understand how the system works to keep the vehicles running at their peak efficiency. Here are the typical components of a  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel filtration system </strong> </a> <span>  and overall fuel system. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Diesel Fuel Filters </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel filters (i.e. full-flow filters) are used to filter diesel fuel several times in the system. The filters help keep particles out of the system that can build up over time and cause efficiency issues with the engine. </span> </p> <p> <span> Fuel filters are used in any fuel system, but they’re especially important for diesel systems. The reason for this is that diesel fuel is more viscous, and the extra potential for buildup in the system leaves the engine more susceptible to damage. Regularly changing the filters and routine maintenance of the diesel filtration system will help keep the engine running smoothly. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Diesel Fuel Transfer Pump </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> While a basic fuel system can rely on normal air pressure to distribute fuel throughout the system, a modern diesel system requires a fuel transfer pump. The pump allows fuel to be transferred to the fuel injection system. </span> </p> <p> <span> Sometimes, an aftermarket lift pump can be installed to increase to improve the fuel system and maintain an optimal PSI for the fuel pressure to ensure long-lasting high performance. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Fuel Air Separation System (FASS) </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Combing the lift pump and the filtration system, the FASS combines both into an effective mechanism that helps improve fuel efficiency for diesel engines. </span> </p> <p> <span> The separation systems are compact and have high-performance fuel pumps that increase longevity and lifespan of the diesel engine’s fuel injection system. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Conclusion </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel engines are powerful and efficient combustion engines. But, complex and powerful modern engines require extra filtration and more power than a simple engine. With multiple steps in the filtration process, quality fuel filters are extremely important. And, it’s also important to have a high-performing pump to ensure that the proper fuel pressure is maintained for performance. A combination fuel air separation system can help extend the life of a fuel injection system and improve fuel efficiency. When properly maintained with the best working parts, fuel and filtration systems can last a long time and allow diesel engines to run smoothly. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Thu, 25 Jul 2019 22:02:02 GMT http://www.fassride.com/basics-of-diesel-engine-fuel-systems thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/fuel-filters-for-the-needs-of-todays-cars-and-trucks <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Fuel filters are a vital part of the proper functioning of an automobile. They filter out dirt, dust, grime, and other impurities from entering the combustion chamber. Like the Princess and the Pea, fuel systems are quite sensitive and even the smallest of particles can wreak havoc on today’s technologically fine tuned engines. Fuel filters should be changed approximately 25,000 to 30,000 miles, depending on driving conditions. If you drive in a dusty, smoggy, and/or hot environment, your car will need a fuel filter change sooner than a car that only drives in relatively mild and clear conditions. Fuel filter manufacturers design fuel filters for the needs of today’s cars and trucks. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> There are at least two main benefits to driving with a clean fuel filter. We will examine these benefits next. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Driving With A Clean Fuel Filter Will Give Your Car Optimal Performance </strong> </h2> <h2> <br/> </h2> <ul> <li> <span> Optimal performance. A clean fuel filter allows your car to run in peak condition. Today’s technologically advanced engines are affected negatively even by slight variances in conditions and foreign objects in its systems. A clean fuel filter keeps the fuel system working properly and at maximum efficiency. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <span> A clean fuel filter filters out impurities, which keeps the car’s fuel injection system primed to deliver the cleanest, most precise amount of fuel needed for the engine’s needs during the idling and driving experience. Clean fuel filters keep impurities such as water, dirt, rust, and particulate matter from disrupting engine performance. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> A clogged fuel filter prevents the fuel system and engine from running at peak performance. Therefore, you should be aware of the symptoms of a clogged fuel filter. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> A clogged fuel filter makes the fuel pump worker harder and less efficiently. Under more demanding driving conditions, for example, your car is loaded with more weight, is pulling something or driving on an incline, you will notice that your car’s engine is not getting the “juice” it needs to compensate for these demands. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Additionally, a clogged fuel filter will prevent your car from starting quickly or at all. Acceleration, even under normal driving conditions, may be hindered. This can be dangerous when acceleration is most needed. Imagine you are merging onto a freeway and there is a tractor trailer coming up behind you in your lane. You will want your car to accelerate quickly so that you can get in front of the lumbering truck, especially if there is not room to slow down and wait for the big rig to pass. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Also, a clogged fuel filter will cause your car to not idle properly, which can cause problems when yielding and stopping. You do not want your car to die, either when decelerating or at a full stop. Moreover, the misfires that can happen from clogged fuel filters will negatively affect your car’s performance at any point during the driving experience. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Be sure to have your car’s fuel filter changed regularly. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> Fuel filter manufacturers </strong> </a> <span>  design today’s fuel filters to deliver the peak performance your car needs. </span> </p> <p> <span> Fass Fuel Systems has fuel filters for many different car and truck makes and models.

Whether you prefer diesel fuel systems or gasoline, you’re most likely going to have the same (or very similar) components under the hood, especially when it comes to filters. Let’s take a look at three types of filters that your vehicle needs to function. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <strong> Air Filter: </strong> <span>  There are two main types of air filters in your vehicle, engine and cabin. The engine air filter removes any impurities in the air are taken in by the engine for combustion; they are an essential part of the fuel air separation systems in diesel engines. If they do their jobs properly, the overall combustion process will go off without a hitch and your engine won’t incur any damage or suffer from poor fuel efficiency. Your car’s engine air filter has a direct influence on your its overall performance — don’t neglect it. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Oil Filter: </strong> <span>  When it comes to importance, your oil filter ranks higher on the list than your engine air filter. The normal wear-and-tear of an engine causes little metal shavings to collect in the oil pan; when the oil is cycled back through, the oil filter is responsible for removing these potentially damaging components. Your oil filter should be changed every time you change your oil. </span> </li> <li> <strong> Fuel Filter: </strong> <span>  In diesel engines, diesel fuel filters are used to prevent corrosion on interior parts by removing any water that accumulates. Since diesel is lighter than water, the filter is shaped like a bowl and collects water at the bottom which then drains out. All fuel filters are designed to tolerate the minimum of 75 psi internal differential pressure; because letting water into your engine or fuel system can have a disastrous impact on your entire engine, it’s an important component to be aware of. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> From </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank">   </a> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> Fass 150 filters </strong> </a> <strong>   </strong> <span> to cabin filters, the vital products keep your car running smoothly and comfortably.

With diesel engines taking the number one spot for most efficient internal combustion, these engines have several benefits to offer regarding performance. But all vehicles require maintenance, especially when it comes to the  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel filtration system </strong> </a> <span> . Diesel owners may not know exactly when their fuel filter should be replaced, so let’s take a look at a few common warning signs it may be time for a replacement. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <strong> Difficulty starting: </strong> <span>  One of the first signs that something is wrong in a vehicle is if it has difficulty starting or won’t start at all. While there are certainly several reasons an engine may have trouble starting, a blockage in the filtration system is a common cause. Fortunately, replacing the filter is a quick fix. If an engine has trouble starting, vehicle owners should address the problem quickly or they could deal with a completely dead engine — or one that dies in the middle of the road. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <strong> Shaky ride at low speeds: </strong> <span>  Once a vehicle starts and gets going, it usually drives just fine. But if a driver is noticing their vehicle is struggling at low speeds, like when accelerating out of a driveway or after a stop sign, this could mean the filter is clogged. If the fuel distribution is uneven and slow, the vehicle could be struggling to get enough fuel to accelerate at first, but then adjusts at higher speeds. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <strong> Idling is rough: </strong> <span>  When a vehicle is stopped, idling should be relatively smooth. If the engine idles roughly and feels shaky, this could mean the filter is clogged. If the diesel fuel pumps can’t get enough fuel through, it could result in decreased flow and a low idle RPM. Seeking help from diesel fuel filters suppliers and getting a replacement filter should fix the issue and allow the vehicle to idle smoothly. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> All vehicles should come with a maintenance guide telling owners when certain parts should be replaced. And while most diesel fuel filters should be replaced every 10,000 to 25,000 miles, it could vary depending on how frequently the vehicle is used and how well it’s maintained. So diesel drivers should keep these warning signs in mind so they can know when to invest in a replacement diesel filtration system. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 26 Jun 2019 22:12:18 GMT http://www.fassride.com/3-signs-its-time-for-a-new-diesel-fuel-filter thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/have-diesel-will-travel <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Diesel engines are in a number of vehicles all over the world. There are at least fifty (50) different types of diesel gas engines, but, operationally, they work the same. These include diesel fuel transfer pumps, which takes fuel from the tank and sends it through diesel fuel filters into the diesel-powered engines. Diesel fuel filters are a vital part of diesel engines and their fuel systems. They should not be neglected. Let’s look at the basics of diesel fuel filters. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> The Basics </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel filters are key to the smooth operation of the diesel fuel filtration system. The diesel fuel transfer pump moves fuel from the tank to the engine via the diesel fuel filter and fuel injector. The filter works to keep the engine and fuel system free of impurities. These include water, rust, and dirt. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The diesel fuel filter does more than prevent impurities from entering the engine, it helps keep the engine in optimal shape and giving you peak performance. The diesel will burn cleaner, which will facilitate longer engine life. </span> </p> <p> <span> Due to the benefits that diesel fuel filters bring the engine, upkeep and maintenance should be a scheduled priority. If you cannot replace the diesel fuel filter, it will become clogged with impurities and this will result in reduced performance. Diesel fuel filters are easily replaced; therefore, do not neglect the maintenance and replacement of your diesel engine’s fuel filter. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> In Review </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel filters work with the diesel fuel transfer pump to get the fuel from the tank to the engine in as pure and clean manner as possible. The diesel fuel transfer pump moves the fuel and the diesel fuel filter removes engine-damaging impurities from the fuel. It is required to replace your  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel fuel filters </strong> </a> <span>  on a regularly scheduled basis. Remember these basics and your diesel fuel filters will work to keep your engine and its diesel fuel system running in tip-top shape. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Shop For Your Diesel Engine Needs </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> You know the basics of the diesel fuel system and the importance of its maintenance.

Recently, the United States also imposed tariffs on a sizeable portion of imports from China. The Trump Administration created a list of $300 billion dollars worth of Chinese imports, with some with tariffs up to 25%. These tariffs have had an impact on United States producers and consumers as a consequence. There are many different outcomes in the trade war with China, we will look at the short term, long term, and immediate effects of the trade war. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <strong> What is a Tariff? </strong> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Tariffs add a cost to any product, and the government imposes this cost increase in the hopes of “leveling the playing field”. In terms of Trump’s tariffs, the goal is to make the U.S. self-sufficient, save dying industries, and protect U.S. intellectual property. A tariff makes products crossing the border more expensive, which, in theory, should provide an incentive to assemble and create products in the United States. In return, this could lead to job creation and more reason for companies to do business within the United States. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/d0fc1429/dms3rep/multi/Untitled-1.png" alt="fass hat"/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <h2> <strong> Short-Term Effects </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> In the short term, tariffs threaten to hurt some American industries. China announced Monday that they will raise tariffs on $60 billion of American goods. American farming and chemical makers are bracing for hits to their revenue. Many farmers use Chinese products and machinery in order to grow crops, and these products will now have an additional cost. The short term fallout for investors has been more prominent with the Dow Jones industrial average dropping by 600 points on Monday. This is due to multinational corporations with significant exports, seeing less revenue and profits overall. In the long term, things are much more uncertain. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Long Term Effects </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Talks between both countries are still ongoing and no clear trade agreement is on the table. The good news is there is a trade summit with China at the end of March, that could reshape the trade agreement between the United States and China. Long term damage could be imminent with the current trajectory of the trade war. Manufacturers and farmers will take a hit however, ultimately individual Americans will pay for the higher tariffs. The new policies also threaten the flow of Chinese investment in the United States. The United States has also done damage to America’s reputation as a reliable trade partner. On the positive side, the trade war could lead to China accepting a fair trade deal. Tariffs are seen as a way to bring back these jobs. According to the </span> <a href="https://www.nam.org/" target="_blank">   </a> <a href="https://www.nam.org/" target="_blank"> <strong> National Association of Manufacturing </strong> </a> <span> , </span> <span> <span> </span> </span> <span> tariffs on China could help protect intellectual property, but also raise the cost of manufacturing. China has largely operated without any opposition to intellectual property theft and currency manipulation, tariffs are seen as a way to encourage China to follow trade agreements previously established, and also convince them to come to a new trade agreement. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Tariffs and the Automotive and Diesel Industry </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Now that we know how tariffs can impact manufacturing, let’s look at how the diesel and automotive industry will be impacted in particular. Cummins, the diesel and natural gas engine maker, says it expects </span> <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-cummins-tariffs/cummins-sees-250-million-hit-from-tariffs-next-year-idUSKCN1N424L" target="_blank">   </a> <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/us-cummins-tariffs/cummins-sees-250-million-hit-from-tariffs-next-year-idUSKCN1N424L" target="_blank"> <strong> $250 million in tariff-related costs </strong> </a> <span>  in 2019. The engine maker predicts $150 million will be from direct tariffs and $100 million to be from increased metal prices. Bill Hanvey, the president and CEO of the </span> <a href="https://www.autocare.org/news/latest-news/details/2019/05/06/Auto-Care-Association-Opposes-Trump-Administrations-Proposal-to-Increase-Chinese-Import-Tariffs-5195" target="_blank">   </a> <a href="https://www.autocare.org/news/latest-news/details/2019/05/06/Auto-Care-Association-Opposes-Trump-Administrations-Proposal-to-Increase-Chinese-Import-Tariffs-5195" target="_blank"> <strong> Auto Care Association </strong> </a> <span> , urged President Trump to not follow through on increased tariffs. According to the Auto Care Association, the proposed increase from 10% to 25% on Chinese goods would negatively impact manufacturers and the motoring public as a whole. They predict the motoring public would see higher prices on a wide range of products. China was the second largest producer of auto parts imported into the U.S., and totals over $20.1 billion worth of product. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> China and the United States Response Going Forward </strong> </h2> <h2> <br/> </h2> <p> <span> Starting June 1st, China is retaliating by raising tariffs on $60 billion dollars worth of goods. This is in direct response to the U.S decision to hike tariffs on Chinese goods. China has decided to increase these tariffs on more than 5,000 products, some increases will go as high as 25% while other goods are increasing to 20%. Previously, these rates were set between 10% and 5%. This will further increase the conflict between the two economies and could potentially damage the global economy as well. If China decides to not back down on tariffs and not come to an agreement, we could see the entire global economy suffer. Prices of imported and exported goods will continue to rise and as a result, the entire global economy could take a hit. China could decide to raise tariffs even more than they already have some think it could even trigger another global recession like in 2008. The Chinese economy is already shaky and a serious shock could send it into free fall. On the flip side, China could decide to put their differences aside and decide to negotiate with the United States. This would hurt them economically in the short term because they would have to follow regulations which they have been ignoring for years. This could cause China to have to abide by Intellectual Property Laws, which has given the Chinese an advantage for years. Leveling the playing field means somebody loses, and in this case, China would be the biggest loser. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> If the United States continues to play hardball with China, the economic impacts won’t be as severe as it would be for China. American workers, particularly in the agricultural and manufacturing industry, will pay higher prices for goods as this trade war continues. These prices could, in theory, go higher if the trade war becomes more extreme, with either side refusing to give any room to the other. However, if the United States decides to back down now, it could be even worse for our economy. This retreat of economic activity would be seen as a weakness, and the Chinese would take full advantage by manipulating the economy more than it already is. The best scenario for both countries is to come to an agreement fast so the economy can be allowed to flourish on its own. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Overall, the impact of tariffs on the economy is not black and white as some may think. It is a complicated issue with many variables that are changing daily. The long term effects could be much worse than the short term if both countries cannot come to an agreement. As it stands now, both countries are suffering due to this trade war. The United States needs to stay strong, in order to ensure that our trade in China is fair and complies with international laws. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 22 May 2019 22:24:12 GMT http://www.fassride.com/what-manufacturers-should-know-about-tariffs thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/the-dirt-on-diesel-fuel-filter-ratings <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> For many diesel drivers, fuel filtration can prove to be confusing. They know it’s an important part of their engine’s overall good health, but don’t often get into the details. Today’s diesel fuel systems are highly efficient, providing an estimated 45 MPG on the highway and they demand quality filtration to help them run at peak efficiency. To keep up with the ever-changing filter industry, it’s important to know all there is to know about the filtration standards as diesel engine technology continues to advance. You’ve likely invested a lot of money into your diesel vehicle and you want to make sure that investment stays protected. One way you can do this is by learning how diesel filter manufacturers rate their filters and how effective they are. What do the various ratings mean and how critical are they for keeping your diesel engine running smoothly? </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> <div> <img src="https://irp.cdn-website.com/d0fc1429/dms3rep/multi/dieselfiltermanufacturers+%281%29.jpg" alt="truck engine"/> </div> <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <strong> What is a filter rating? </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The main job of diesel fuel filters is to work with the diesel fuel pump to keep out impurities like water, rust and dirt, to prevent them from passing on through the filter. Fuel filter manufacturers rate their products depending on their ability to prevent particles of a certain size to pass through. This rating is given by diesel filter manufacturers in a number of microns, and the number depends on how large or small the particles are which the filter can effectively remove. But the number alone doesn’t determine the ultimate effectiveness of a filter. Other factors include Absoulte, Nominal and Beta Ratings. </span> </p> <p> <strong> <br/> </strong> </p> <p> <strong> Absolute isn’t always absolute </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Absolute Rating, a term given by diesel filter manufacturers, might sound like it means that a particle no bigger than a given size will pass through the holes in a filter. It should mean that if a particle is larger than the hole, it won’t pass through. But there is some discrepancy between filters that are tested in a lab using glass beads and a real world situation where temperatures in an engine are going to be higher with more vibration. Also, variances in manufacturing can create differences within the filter where the pores may not all be consistent in size. This creates the possibility that if you have a filter that is 10 microns in size for example, that a larger particle might sneak through. But the definition of Absolute Rating ensures that the number stated is the upper limit of the filter. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Nominal isn’t always nominal </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Along with a filter’s Absolute Rating, its Nominal Rating reflects the ability to prevent a certain percentage of particles over a given size from getting through. The figure given for a Nominal Rating might be stated as “95% of 10 microns”, which translates into the filter trapping nearly all particles 10 microns and larger from getting through. But on the flip side, a small percentage of particles over 10 microns might not be caught. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Beta Rating: Combining Absolute and Nominal </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Since the above ratings scales have some constraints, the diesel fuel systems industry developed the Beta Rating, which takes into account both the size of the particles which pass through the filter and how many make it. For example, a filter that is assigned a Beta Rating of “2 of 10 microns” means that in laboratory testing using a 10 micron filter, 2 particles were detected as being trapped by the filter, whereas 1 particle was detected as passing through. In other words, a filter with a Beta Rating of 2 successfully filters out 50% of the particles thrown at it. Obviously here you want to look for a filter with a high Beta Rating, as that means it will be more effective in keeping contaminants out. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> When researching diesel fuel filters, be sure to keep all of the above information regarding ratings in mind instead of just relying on one number. This will help to maximize the efficiency of the filter.

This is precisely why car companies like Ford and Chevrolet have come to be known as iconic American brands; their recognizable trucks, like the Ford F-150 and the Chevy Silverado, have established themselves as the biggest and the best — and the most powerful. Though Ford has held the reigns for years (after all, the company did invent cars in the first place), Chevrolet is giving the manufacturing giant a run for its money with the new diesel 2019 Chevy Silverado. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The new inline six-cylinder 3.0-liter Duramax turbo diesel engine purportedly offers 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque.

Apparently, discerning truck owners will be able to order the powerful Silverado this summer; though the 3.0-liter Duramax engine does not come standard on the vehicle, customers will be able to order it with the LT, RST, LTZ, and High Country trims. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> For every 100 trucks sold in the U.S., 10 diesel trucks are sold. When you understand the power behind the engine, that number makes sense. America is a nation of doers; we’re deeply committed to the work that Chevy Silverados and Ford F-150s allow us to do. At the same time, we’re dedicated to the care of the vehicles themselves — after all, you can’t bring a diesel engine like the 3.0-liter Duramax into your life if you don’t know how it functions and what it needs to function at its best. It’s vital that you learn the ins and outs of diesel fuel systems — from the diesel fuel lift pump to the fuel air separation system — in order to keep the beast under your hood in tip-top shape. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Sun, 14 Apr 2019 14:59:28 GMT http://www.fassride.com/2019-chevy-silverado-packs-more-power-than-ford thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/6-tips-to-keep-your-diesel-engine-in-tip-top-shape <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> There are a number of reasons to go with a diesel engine for your truck. While only one in ten trucks sold in the United States has one, they have amazing gas mileage. One tank of fuel can go between 400 and 800 miles. This is an mpg of 45 on the highway. If you have one, you probably want to keep it running well, you will be happy to hear that there are. From keeping your  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel lift pump </strong> </a> <span>  to checking the air filters, there are things you can do for your engine. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span> Keep an eye on the gaskets. Your diesel engine gaskets need some care and feeling in order for the engine to run properly. These are prone to damage from vibration. You should make it a point to keep the mounting bolts tight as ignoring this can be the cause of leaks. If you do have a gasket that is leaking, you should just replace all of them. When one is leaking, it means the others are about to start. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Keep an eye on your air filters. It is important to check your air filters on a regular basis and change them as you need to. The good news is that if you are used to changing air filters in a gas engine, you should have no problem changing a diesel one. There are differences you should know about, however. Diesel air filters are most often found in the cold air collector. Another big difference between diesel air filters and the ones in a gas engine is that the entire engine needs to be shut down before you change out the filters. The powerful air intake system in a diesel engine can pull in just about anything around it. Shut it all down to be safe. Remember, it is a lot less expensive to replace an air filter than a diesel engine so do not skip this step. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Keep an eye on your diesel fuel filters. In most heavy-duty engine setups there are two separate diesel fuel filters. Your primary filter can be found in between the engine itself and the fuel tank. Your second filter lives closer to the engine. This is responsible for cleaning the fuel before it is able to reach the fuel injectors and diesel lift pump. Again, the process to change out fuel filters in a diesel engine is similar to the one used in gas engines but it is always advisable to check your owner’s manual. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Keep an eye on the fuel system. Diesel fuel systems need to be primed and bled from time to time. The fuel lines have to be properly bled of any air bubbles before you even think about changing the fuel filters. The fuel lines need to be clear. This can be done by using the manual primer pump. You can also check the diesel fuel pump. You will know when you have all of the air out of the system when the air-bleed screw stops hissing. Also, keep an eye on your diesel lift pumps at the same time. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Keep an eye on the water separator. It is common for diesel engines to have a water separator. This is important for getting any water that has condensed out of the fuel itself. This happens all of the time. This lives oftentimes around the primary fuel filter. This can be drained manually by using the petcock valve. If you always keep the fuel tank at near full, you will prevent water from condensing in the first place. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <span> Get your truck ready for the colder months. If you live in a region with a real winter you will need to help it perform at its best. Cold weather can wreak havoc on a diesel engine. By adding an electric heater to your diesel engine, you can help it work better in very cold conditions. Adding starting fluid (only a tiny bit) to the combustion chamber can also help. </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Owning a truck with a diesel engine can be a great value. When you pay attention to your diesel lift pump, filters, and other basic parts of the system you will keep it happy. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Mon, 08 Apr 2019 15:01:54 GMT http://www.fassride.com/6-tips-to-keep-your-diesel-engine-in-tip-top-shape thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/5-components-of-diesel-fuel-systems <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> One out of every 100 cars sold in America has a diesel engine. It’s estimated that cars with diesel engines can achieve up to 45 Miles Per Gallon (MPG) on the highway. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> The elements of diesel fuel systems are designed to work together to inject a specific amount of pressurized and atomized fuel into the engine cylinders at the right time. When this fuel mixes with hot, compressed air, combustion takes place. This is unlike gas engines, where combustion is caused by an electrical spark. Because diesel fuel systems work differently than gas fuel systems do, they are designed with these differences in mind. Here are five components of a diesel fuel system, along with information about what they do. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> 1. The Fuel Tank. </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> A fuel tank must have the ability to store enough fuel to keep the engine operational for a reasonable amount of time. It must also be closed to avoid foreign particle contamination. The tank also requires vents to enable air to enter and replace fuel being used. Fuel tanks also need three additional openings; one for filling the tank, one for discharging fuel, and one for drainage. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> 2. The Fuel Lines. </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> There are three different kinds of fuel lines in diesel cars. Heavyweight fuel lines can withstand the high pressures between the fuel injection pump and the fuel injectors. Medium weight fuel lines are designed for medium to light fuel pressure existing between the fuel tank and the injection pump. Lightweight fuel lines can be used in areas subjected to little no pressure. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> 3. The Diesel Fuel Filters. </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> To prevent foreign particles from clogging the fuel system, the diesel fuel in most systems must be filtered several times. Conventional systems generally include three progressive filters; a filter screen near the diesel fuel transfer pump or the tank, then a primary fuel filter, followed by a secondary filter. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> 4. The Diesel Fuel Pumps </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Diesel fuel transfer pumps are used in high-speed  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel fuel systems </strong> </a> <span>  to automatically supply fuel to the injection system. Pumps often come with a lever for releasing air from the system and are nearly always jerk pumps. </span> </p> <p> <strong> <br/> </strong> </p> <h2> <strong> 5. The Fuel Injectors. </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Fuel injectors are often considered to be the most significant component of diesel fuel systems. The even distribution of atomized, pressurized fuel throughout the cylinders leads to more power, better fuel economy, less noise from the engine, and a car that operates more smoothly. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Today’s diesel fuel injectors employ piezoelectricity. Wikipedia defines this as an electric charge accumulating in some solid materials as a response to applied mechanical stress. These types of fuel injectors are exceptionally precise and can withstand substantial pressure. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Cars having diesel engines can offer better fuel economy than some cars with gas engines. To perform at this level, diesel cars must have a fuel system with all of its components (fuel tank, fuel lines, fuel filters, fuel pumps, and fuel injectors) in proper working order. Understanding what these components do aids you in caring for them well. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Tue, 12 Mar 2019 15:05:09 GMT http://www.fassride.com/5-components-of-diesel-fuel-systems thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/diesel-diligence-3-ways-to-care-for-your-fuel-system <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Diesel engines are notorious for their efficiency. In fact, a single tank of gas in a diesel engine is known to power a vehicle between 400 and 800 miles, explaining their popularity in the trucking industry. Despite these impressive numbers, they aren’t self-sufficient; like any quality product,  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel fuel systems </strong> </a> <span>  need to be cared for in order to function at the highest level possible. If you’re car-savvy and know your way around diesel fuel lift pumps and diesel filtration systems, make sure that you’re keeping up-to-date on the following maintenance. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Fuel: </strong> <span>  Amazingly, repair statistics reveal contaminated fuel to be the cause of 90% of diesel engine problems. (This won’t be an issue if your filters are fully functioning, but we’ll get to that in a second.) If you’re unsure whether or not your fuel is dirty, simply pump some into a clean glass jar and wait a few minutes; if any contaminants settle to the bottom, you’ll know that it’s time to find a new source of diesel fuel. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Prevent algae: </strong> <span>  Just like mold on bread, algae and fungi can thrive in fuel tanks. These microbes depend on both fuel and water to survive, though eliminating water from your tank is major; unfortunately, that’s not always possible. To cover all your bases, your fuel should be treated with a biocide to ensure no bacteria can grow. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Tank: </strong> <span>  However, even the most meticulous of drivers can end up with dirty fuel and microbial growth. To stay on top of your fuel system’s health, it’s advisable to clean out the tank every so often; every few years (at the very least), draw some fuel from the bottom of the tank to check for water and/or sediment — it’ll be worth the effort in the long run. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> When it comes to the air fuel separator diesel doesn’t always make things easy. Sometimes — no matter how well-versed you are with the intricacies under the hood — it’s hard to find your way around. By having a professional take a look every year (or more, depending on your vehicle’s age), you can guarantee that your diesel fuel pumps and filters are in perfect working condition. Only by caring for your diesel fuel systems will they continue to perform with quality and efficiency. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Sat, 09 Mar 2019 15:06:50 GMT http://www.fassride.com/diesel-diligence-3-ways-to-care-for-your-fuel-system thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/3-winter-tips-to-keep-your-diesel-engine-running-smoothly-in-frigid-temps <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> For many people, their cars are like their children. And just like with children, you need to keep them safe when the weather turns cold and the snow starts to fall. Though your diesel vehicle may not suffer from frostbite, there are a number of weather-related damage that could occur if you don’t prepare for it ahead time. We may be in the thick of this frigid season, but it’s never too late to take the proper precautions to safeguard the health of your diesel engine. Here are three ways to do just that. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Test your batteries: </strong> <span>  Just like any other car, testing your batteries to make sure they can handle the added strain of colder temperatures can ensure you don’t get stranded. The average car battery lasts between two and five years; if yours is getting on in age (or you can’t remember how long you’ve had it) testing it is the best way to see if it’ll make it through winter. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Use an anti-gel additive: </strong> <span>  Diesel fuel systems are a vital component of your vehicle. In severe cold, diesel fuel can reach its cloud point (the measure of diesel’s low-temperature operability) and begin to thicken and gel up. Most diesel fuels do this between 20 and -18 degrees Fahrenheit. By including a fuel additive in the winter, you can prevent your fuel from gelling up. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Change your diesel fuel filters: </strong> <span>   </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> Diesel fuel filters </strong> </a> <span>  are the most common freeze point for diesel fuel. Because only a minimal </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span>  amount of diesel remains in the filter while your vehicle sits in subzero temperatures overnight, it freezes much easier and much faster than it would in the tank. Swapping out your old filter for a new one can reduce your chances of gelling — you don’t know if your current filter is partially clogged, which makes gelling more likely. <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> There may be 50 different kinds of diesel engines, but all of them will benefit from the above winter weather maintenance. Even if you consider your vehicle to be nothing more than a way to get from Point A to Point B, prepping your engine for subzero temperatures is still a wise decision; if you don’t dedicate the time to your diesel fuel lift pump and battery, you might end up going nowhere fast. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 06 Feb 2019 15:09:52 GMT http://www.fassride.com/3-winter-tips-to-keep-your-diesel-engine-running-smoothly-in-frigid-temps thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/funky-fuel-pumps-upgrading-your-system-with-performance-injectors <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> If you’re one of the people who treat their vehicle like their child, you understand the importance of quality. When it comes to efficiency, diesel is as high-quality as you can get: the diesel engine rates number one for most efficient internal combustion and can run you between 400 and 800 miles on a single tank. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> While your diesel vehicle is already doing great, sometimes we feel the call of the wild — an urge to really ramp up the speed and power and feel that engine rumble. Upgrading your fuel system is one of the easiest ways to do just that. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Parts Of A Whole </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel systems are comprised of several components: the tank, which of course holds the diesel fuel; the fuel air separation system, which does exactly what it says on the tin; the diesel fuel lift pump, which is responsible for pulling fuel from the tank to the injector; and then the injector, which injects the fuel into the engine’s internal combustion chamber.  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> Diesel fuel pumps </strong> </a> <span>  play a major role, but investing in performance fuel injectors first can maximize your vehicle’s fuel delivery and atomization. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Depending on your vehicle, you have a variety of different types of performance fuel injectors to choose from. However, we recommend you choose a provider that can ensure a custom fit; these injectors are created and designed for your make and model, ensuring and original equipment (OE) fit. While doing your research, look out for companies that rigorously test for leaks, precise pressure, and spray pattern consistency — it shows that they’re as dedicated to your satisfaction as you are. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Once you select an injector that works with your system, you may want to look into upgrading your diesel fuel pumps to get even more power. High-flow diesel fuel pumps ensure optimal fuel flow to increase horsepower, torque, and throttle response. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> It can be quite astonishing how a few simple changes can turn a boring diesel car or truck into a powerful beast. The amount of power you want (and money you’re willing to spend) dictates what performance fuel injector and fuel pump system you end up with. So, what are you waiting for?

But even among the best, there are standout winners that tower above their brethren; whether they paved the way for greatness in diesel design or revolutionized the industry, here are the top five best diesel engines ever made.\ </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <strong> International 7.3L Power Stroke: </strong> <span>  The Power Stroke revolutionized diesel truck ownership in the United States. Offering reliability, these engines helped start a horsepower and torque race among the Big Three (Cummins, Power Stroke, and Duramax), and was instrumental in pushing diesel ownership into the mainstream. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> GM 6.6L Duramax: </strong> <span>  General Motors upped its game with the creation of the Isuzu-built Duramax in 2001. Now, the refined beast is capable of outrunning both Cummins and Power Stroke in the diesel power war. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Caterpillar C12 Super Truck Racing Engine: </strong> <span>  This engine can propel a massive racing big ring to 100 mph in just 7.9 seconds. As a result, the Caterpillar team won several championships on the back of this indestructible monster. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Wartsila-Sulzer RTA96-C: </strong> <span>  This powerful engine is used to move container ships, cruise liners, and generates a heck of a lot of force! <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> International DT466: </strong> <span>  Fleet managers across the country love to power their medium-duty transportation trucks with the DT466 because they run forever, are efficient, supply good power for moving freight, and can be rebuilt right in the chassis. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> The Cummins B-Series: </strong> <span>  It may not have been the first, but the B-Series Cummins brought some much-earned respectability to diesel pickup trucks. With enough torque to relocate skyscrapers, the B-Series continues to shine. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> From diesel fuel transfer pumps to fuel air separation systems, diesel engines truly do operate like well-oiled machines.

Though there are a number of components that work together to achieve this stellar rating, one of the most important is the electric diesel fuel lift pumps — after all, you wouldn’t get very far if fuel didn’t make it to the engine. </span> </p> <p> <span> However, diesel fuel systems are comprised of many pieces: the  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> electric diesel fuel lift pump </strong> </a> <span>  does not operate singularly, but rather in tandem with other (also very important) components. Let’s take a look at three of them. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Fuel Filter: </strong> <span>  Diesel fuel filters are responsible for removing any dirt, rust, or debris particles from the fuel before it enters the engine. Since even the tiniest piece of detritus can cause significant damage should it get into the powerful yet delicate structure of the diesel engine, it’s vital that your filter is not damaged itself. If your filter is old, it may become easily clogged: when this happens, you run the risk of fuel pump failure because the pump is forced to work much harder to force fuel through it. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Fuel Tank: </strong> <span>  Rust and dirt are an engine’s worst enemy. Though your fuel filter should stop these materials from getting into your engine, it’s not always a guarantee. If your fuel tank is badly rusted or contaminated with dirt, you may end up clogging your filter as larger granulations build up — then, you’ve got a repeat of the problem mentioned above. Physical damage to the tank itself, such as dents or distortions, can restrict fuel entry into the pump or fuel exist from the pressure regulator, which inherently affects efficiency and forces your engine to push harder. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Fuel Pressure Regulator: </strong> <span>  If the diesel fuel pressure regulator fails, fuel pump performance suffers. The pressure regulator will stick closed or the return line will become restricted, which will cause the fuel pump to operate at maximum fuel pressure. Again, you really don’t want your vehicle to be operating at such a high-pressure, extra force capacity because it can cause damage. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> If any of these systems fail, engine efficiency suffers. As a result, it’s crucial to check the state of each during yearly inspections; When it comes to your diesel vehicle, it’s best not to skimp. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 02 Jan 2019 15:17:02 GMT http://www.fassride.com/piece-by-piece-fuel-pump-components-explained thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/how-to-troubleshoot-common-issues-with-diesel-fuel-pumps <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> When your vehicle has an issue with fuel delivery, the rest of it will undoubtedly be compromised. Maintaining the integrity of your vehicle’s diesel fuel pump is essential to maintaining the integrity of your entire vehicle. With as many as 50 different types of diesel engines on the market, knowing the ins and outs of diesel fuel pumps is important. Know these common issues and never experience detrimental vehicle failure. </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Dirty Fuel </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> The best diesel fuel pump injector is a clean diesel fuel pump injector. As residue builds up in the diesel fuel supply system, a surprising amount of grease, grime, and gunk clog up the entire pump. The area where the fuel leaves the injector and enters the combustion chamber, known as the spray tip, is especially prone to seeing the backed-up residue. This clogged tip is often the issue when an engine sputters or hesitates during acceleration. Be sure to use high-quality diesel fuel to prevent this build up as much as you possibly can. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Improper Injection Timing </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Defective parts of the fuel injector pump can negatively affect the timing of the fuel transfer process. This typically happens when the injector pump’s O-rings or ball seats are defective themselves. While this is a fairly common glitch in  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel fuel pumps </strong> </a> <span> , it typically requires an entire rebuild or replacement to fix the defective parts. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Low Fuel Tank Level </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Diesel fuel pumps need a good amount of fuel inside of them to run smoothly. The fuel serves as a lubricant for the fuel pump bearings. When you run your vehicle with a fuel tank that is as close to empty as possible, you’re not providing your pump with much lubrication and it will eventually destroy the pump. When a lack of fuel wears out the fuel pump bearings, the injectors do not receive the fuel at the pressurized level they should be. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Debris Inside Injector </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Small visitors to the inside of injectors, like pieces of dust and debris, can clog the entire injector. A tiny object could also leave the injector open at all times. Injectors need to close for optimal operation, and when they can’t the cylinder performance is compromised. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Keep an eye out for issues like this with your fuel lift pumps. When you catch issues early, you can work toward a solution more quickly. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Tue, 18 Dec 2018 15:20:45 GMT http://www.fassride.com/how-to-troubleshoot-common-issues-with-diesel-fuel-pumps thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/3-factors-to-consider-when-choosing-a-fuel-pump <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> If you have the vehicular knowledge necessary to pick and choose between individual parts, you’ll know the importance of the fuel lift pump. Often located within the fuel tank, different diesel fuel pumps provide different outcomes in terms of efficiency and power. There are a number of  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> fuel pump manufacturers </strong> </a> <span>  out there, so the journey to the perfect one may end up being more difficult than you expected. If you’re trying to find the right diesel fuel lift pump for your vehicle, consider the following three factors. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Horsepower: </strong> <span>  Your engine’s horsepower (hp) determines how much fuel flow is required to support it. As horsepower increases, so too does the volume of fuel needed to support that power. Focusing on the 10hp per gallon (or 2.64hp per liter) can help you estimate the volume to power ratio in your vehicle. However, you can only actually know your gallon per horsepower ratio if you take into account the fuel pressure required for your engine. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Fuel Pressure: </strong> <span>  Different engines require different fuel pressures. Fuel pressure has a large effect on how much flow a pump can produce, so it’s vital that you know what your engine’s maximum pressure is. Fuel pumps flow at their highest volume when there is no pressure (known as free flow), but as the pressure increases, the flow decreases. Every pump has a different flow volume at a given pressure, so taking a look at a flow chart of the pump you decide to buy can make the process a lot easier. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Voltage: </strong> <span>  Fuel pumps have different flow rates at different voltages. When the voltage increases, the speed of the pump will also increase, which then increases its flow at any given pressure. Most cars produce around 13.5 volts when running. However, if yours does not produce 13.5 volts, you can examine the flow ratings of a pump at 12 volts instead to be safe. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> <span> A single tank of fuel can power a diesel engine between 400 and 800 miles; to get the most out of your tank, you must have a fuel </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> pump that is optimized for your vehicle. If you’re able to take into account the three factors described above, you should have no problem sorting through all the fuel pump manufacturers and getting the most bang for your diesel-dollar. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 05 Dec 2018 15:22:32 GMT http://www.fassride.com/3-factors-to-consider-when-choosing-a-fuel-pump thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/mechanical-vs-electric-fuel-pumps-which-is-the-right-option-for-you <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Nobody ever said the mechanics of a car were easy to understand. Unless you were born with a ratchet in one hand and a wrench in the other, we’re guessing the complexity of diesel fuel lift pumps and diesel filtration systems go right over your head. And, if that’s the case, how are you ever going to know what type of diesel fuel lift pump — mechanical or electric — is best for you and your vehicle? Easy: we’re going to explain both of them to you! </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> The Minutiae of Mechanical Pumps </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Mechanical diesel fuel pumps have been around for decades, though the switch to electric everything these days has seen them becoming less and less popular. They work mainly on older engines with carburetors: the pump siphons fuel from the gas tank and pushes it to the carburetor when the engine is cranking or running. Though they won’t quite stand up to boosted applications or engines running nitrous with higher horsepower ratings, they are a convenient and affordable choice for those who simply use their vehicles to get from point A to point B. They’re quiet, require minimal effort to install, and (since they aren’t electric, obviously) have no wiring to muck around with or worry about. If you want to push your engine or give it a little extra kick, however, electric fuel pumps are the way to go. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> The Excitement of Electric Pumps </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> For vehicles that really purr, pushing the limits and efficiency of your engine, electric pumps are essential. They’re needed in situations where higher fuel pressures are required (like boosted applications, nitrous, and fuel injection — the latter begins at 30,000 PSI). Sometimes, mechanical pumps simply won’t fit in your car, forcing you to go electric instead; however, they offer a wide variety of flow rates and pressure outputs, making them incredibly versatile and able to work well in many vehicles. Most electric fuel pumps require a 12 volt circuit with a relay that gives you multiple shut-off options, but they must be properly placed in order to guarantee efficiency. Although they’re more expensive, they are generally more efficient and safer options. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Essentially, your choice of  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel fuel lift pump </strong> </a> <span>  relies on your personal needs, from budget to boosts. If you have any questions, you can always contact your local mechanic for advice. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Mon, 05 Nov 2018 15:24:38 GMT http://www.fassride.com/mechanical-vs-electric-fuel-pumps-which-is-the-right-option-for-you thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/3-different-types-of-fuel-pumps <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> If you’ve ever purchased a car, you know how many versions, styles, and colors are available for each manufacturer. Unsurprisingly, what’s under the hood is as versatile; while all the necessary components are, well, necessary to keep the vehicle running, they come in a wide variety of designs based on personal use and preference. From diesel fuel  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> lift pumps </strong> </a> <span>  to diesel filtration systems, you have the freedom to decide (within reason and space limitations) what goes in your car. This article will focus exclusively on fuel pumps. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Rotary Vane-Style Lift Pumps: </strong> <span>  Rotary vane pumps contain a paddle-wheel device within a larger circular housing. The wheel is offset within this housing, which creates a crescent-shaped cavity. The paddles slide in and out as the wheel spins, drawing fuel into the pump through the inlet; when the fuel reaches the narrow point of the crescent on the outlet side, it is compressed and pushed through the outlet. These fuel pumps are highly efficient, but they make a lot of noise. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Gerotor-Style Lift Pumps: </strong> <span>  Gerotor pumps are high-pressure, high-volume electric fuel pumps. By utilizing two gears (a spur gear and a ring gear) that work together to rotate the cavity, suction is created on the inlet and pressure is exerted on the outlet; this even balance is what makes Gerator pumps so efficient and able to build high pressures — and all without making any noise. However, they are susceptible to damage from contaminants and can experience cavitation because of the strength of the vacuum they produce. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <ul> <li> <strong> Diaphragm-Style Fuel Pumps: </strong> <span>  Diaphragm pumps use a flexible membrane (usually a rubber composite) that moves up and down inside a chamber. The fuel only moves in one direction within that chamber. A lever on the pump fits into a lobe on the camshaft; as the cam spins, the lever is moved, pulling the diaphragm down and increasing the size of the pump chamber, which draws fuel into the pump. When the diaphragm pushes up (aided by a diaphragm spring), the fuel is forced from the chamber and into the feed line. Although they are more resistant to damage from contaminants and debris (like water, scale, rust, and dirt), their high vacuum makes diaphragm pumps vulnerable to vapor lock or cavitation. As a result, they’re usually recommended for carbureted applications where higher pressures aren’t needed. </span> </li> </ul> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Unless you are a qualified mechanic, we recommend consulting a professional before making any purchases or changes to your vehicle. Whether your car runs on a diesel fuel supply system or uses regular gasoline, you’ll be able to find a product that best suits your needs. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Thu, 01 Nov 2018 15:27:34 GMT http://www.fassride.com/3-different-types-of-fuel-pumps thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/upgrading-your-diesel-fuel-system-a-simple-guide <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Diesel engines are still very much around, and not just in the trucking industry. Those who wish to boost power without sacrificing efficiency (as diesel engines rate number one for the most efficient internal combustion) usually fit a diesel engine into their vehicles — and if they want a little extra oomph, they’ll upgrade the diesel fuel system. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> The Basics </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Before you go digging around in your engine (or pay someone to dig around in your engine), it’s important to know the components involved in diesel fuel systems. Your engine will contain a diesel filtration system, complete with diesel fuel filters to ensure that no dirt or debris gets into that very expensive engine, an injection system, which is responsible for injecting the fuel that will be turned into mechanical energy, but — most importantly — your engine will contain a  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel lift pump </strong> </a> <span> . </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The fuel lift pump transfers fuel from your tank to the injection system. Virtually every diesel has a lift pump of some kind, yet many people prefer to purchase and install aftermarket pumps to boost their power past factory settings. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Feel The Power </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Modifying the amount of fuel that gets injected, either through programming (if your truck is computer-equipped) or manually, is one of the easiest ways to push your engine and “see what she can do”, so to speak. Unfortunately, most factory diesel lift pumps cannot keep up with the change: when supply fuel pressure drops, the injection pressure into the engine will also drop, and so will horsepower. In fact, running pressure that’s too low can potentially harm the injection pump and cause it to fail, so any time you modify your engine for more power and performance, you’re going to want to install a new lift pump as well. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Now that you understand how your system works, you can begin looking for a suitable lift pump. Low-pressure fuel pumps are inexpensive (carrying a price tag of around $100), but they almost always fail in diesel setups. It’s a much better idea to do your research and find a quality diesel lift pump that has been proven to succeed. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Mon, 29 Oct 2018 15:29:40 GMT http://www.fassride.com/upgrading-your-diesel-fuel-system-a-simple-guide thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/diesel-101-everything-you-need-to-know-as-the-owner-of-a-diesel-engine <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Knowledge is power, so if you drive a big rig or a truck that runs on diesel, it can’t hurt to know a little bit more about it. First of all, there are multiple kinds: just as gasoline is rated by octane, diesel is rated by its cetane, which indicates how easily it ignites and how quickly it burns. Logically, higher ratings equal higher efficiency. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> There are two grades of standard diesel fuel (sometimes called diesel oil): Diesel #1 and Diesel #2. You don’t need to worry about differentiating their cetane levels, however, because all diesel automakers specify Diesel #2 for normal driving conditions — Diesel #1 is usually only used by truckers who need to carry heavy loads over long distances. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel is also measured by its viscosity; like all oils, it gets thicker and cloudier at lower temperatures, and can even become a gel and refuse to flow under extreme conditions. Diesel #1 is more efficient in cold temperatures because it naturally flows more easily. But don’t worry if you live in a place that experiences exceptionally cold and bitter winters: most service stations offer blended diesel fuel for local weather conditions. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Historically, diesel engines have been around since the 1890s. However, it wasn’t until a few decades ago that conventional diesel exhaust was linked to cancer due to exposure and considered extremely dangerous. As a result, clean diesel engines were created: with many diesel filtration systems and diesel fuel lift pumps in existence designed to reduce harmful emissions, use of diesel fuel has become considerably safer — just be sure not to inhale the fuels themselves when filling up. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Today, there are over 50 different types of diesel engines to choose from. You have the pick of the litter when it comes to your particular set up: the  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS fuel pump </strong> </a> <span>  (fuel air separation system) is remarkable in its ability to combine both a fuel lift pump and filtration system to increase efficiency, which increases mileage. FASS fuel pumps also boost engine performance and extend the life of your diesel injection system which saves you money on repairs and replacements in the long run. They are also exceptionally clean, so you don’t have to worry about your carbon footprint or personal health. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Thu, 04 Oct 2018 15:34:49 GMT http://www.fassride.com/diesel-101-everything-you-need-to-know-as-the-owner-of-a-diesel-engine thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/florida-man-accused-of-plotting-to-steal-diesel-fuel-arrested <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Adding another “Florida Man” story to the growing list, a man in Florida was arrested in mid-September for  </span> <a href="http://www.theledger.com/news/20180911/polk-county-sheriffs-office-man-plotted-to-steal-diesel-fuel" target="_blank"> <strong> plotting to steal diesel fue </strong> </a> <a href="http://www.theledger.com/news/20180911/polk-county-sheriffs-office-man-plotted-to-steal-diesel-fuel" target="_blank"> l </a> <span> . Donald Fowler, 47, had been driving an SUV hauling a trailer when he was pulled over by a Polk County deputy; his vehicle had no tags and he was driving without his lights on. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Upon pulling Fowler over, the deputy (who was a PCSO detective with the Agricultural Crimes Unit) discovered a 500-gallon plastic tank in the trailer, as well as a transfer  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> universal fuel pump </strong> </a> <span>  device, a pair of bolt cutters, a pipe wrench, and a glove in the backseat. Fowler then admitted his intent to steal diesel fuel and was taken to jail. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> It was later discovered that Fowler had already cut the chain in the fence surrounding Putnam’s Citrus Grove, which held a pump shed and several gallons of fuel — while he was detained, somebody else had broken in and stolen around 60 gallons of the stuff. </span> </p> <p> <span> It sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it? Logic seems to dictate that, if you’re going to steal anything diesel related, you should go for the engine parts: diesel fuel pumps and diesel filtration systems, or any of the components involved in diesel fuel systems rather than the fuel itself.

What makes it different from gasoline and why does it matter? Here’s everything you need to know about diesel fuel systems and their role in American society. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> How it Differs </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Both gasoline and diesel fuel systems are internal combustion engines, compressing fuel and then igniting it to convert chemical energy to mechanical energy. However, their methods of combustion are not the same: diesel engines compress air and then introduce the fuel (air heats up when it is compressed so contact with diesel fuel creates ignition), whereas gasoline engines mix gas and air from the get-go and compress them, then spark plugs create sparks that ignite the mixture. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel is heavier and more oily than gasoline, so it evaporates more slowly. Additionally, it is remarkably more efficient due to its combustion method: many diesel engines get around 45 miles to the gallon on the highway, which explains why most commercial trucks and freights employ the use of  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel fuel systems </strong> </a> <span> . As a result, a good chunk of American commerce relies on big rigs that run on diesel. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> Understanding the Components </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> A diesel engine is made up of five essential parts: the tank, the diesel fuel pump, diesel fuel filters, the injection pump, and injection nozzles. The fuel reservoirs are specifically designed from aluminum alloys or sheet metals to withstand the corrosive effects of diesel fuel. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> The fuel lift pump pulls diesel out of the reservoir and moves it into the injection pump, where it is pushed through the diesel filtration system to remove any contaminants that may have been picked up during its long journey from the refinery to the gas station — this is vital because dirt and debris could severely damage the injection system and, subsequently, the entire engine. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> The injection pump then compresses the fuel in preparation for injection. Injection nozzles spray the compressed diesel into the combustion chambers, which fire (literally through miniature explosions) and turn the fuel into mechanical energy. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Understanding how your engine functions is a key part of responsible car ownership, even if you’re simply driving it as a result of your job. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Thu, 06 Sep 2018 15:39:46 GMT http://www.fassride.com/diesel-fuel-systems-everything-you-need-to-know thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/know-your-vehicle-the-4-types-of-diesel-fuel-pumps <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> For every 100 cars sold in the United States, one diesel engine car is sold. If you’re among this population of diesel-engine users, make sure that you know what type of diesel fuel pump you have. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <strong> Common rail fuel injection pump. </strong> <span>  An electronically controlled diesel fuel supply system, this pump was developed to meet the strict 21st century exhaust gas regulations. It consists of a supply pump, common rail, electronically controlled injectors, a variety of sensors to detect the engine’s running condition, and a computer that controls all of these devices. The engine drives the supply pump, which produces high-pressure fuel. The common rail distributes the fuel to the injectors, which are mounted on each cylinder of the engine. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Distributor (rotary) fuel injection pump. </strong> <span>  This diesel fuel pump is also controlled electronically by various sensors, an electronic control unit, and an actuator. Similar to the common rail pump, the sensors detect the engine’s running condition and send signals to the control unit. The actuator controls how much fuel is injected and its timing according to the signals it receives from the control unit. The control unit determines what signals it sends by calculating the optimum levels for the engine’s running condition. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> In-line fuel injection pump. </strong> <span>  One of two mechanically controlled diesel fuel systems, the in-line fuel injection pump matches the engine cylinders in their number of fuel pressure mechanisms. This pump is primarily used for medium to large trucks and construction machinery. A camshaft drives the fuel pressure and injection quantity control mechanisms within the pump body. The elements in that body follow an injection order to feed fuel to each engine cylinder. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> <li> <strong> Distributor injection pump. </strong> <span>  Also a mechanically controlled diesel fuel pump, the distributor injection pump has just one fuel pressure mechanism, despite the number of engine cylinders the vehicle may have. The distributor is designed to follow the injection order to distribute pressurized fuel to each cylinder. The pump housing holds all of its components, including the governor, timer, and feed pump. As it is so compact, this pump is light and can operate at high speeds, making it perfect for small engines. <br/> <br/> </span> </li> </ol> <p> <span> Knowing your vehicle’s exact type of  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/find-my-fass" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel fuel pump </strong> </a> <span>  is important in case it shows signs of needing replacement, which can include sudden surges in speed, rising car temperatures, decreased gas mileage, and more.

Factory parts and mechanics can serve you well for many years but ultimately there is a need to upgrade the performance of your diesel engine. Upgrades can get tricky and most of them are contingent on completing prep-steps before any part swapping can be completed. </span> </p> <p> <span> One of the parts that end up being replaced with a higher performing model is the diesel fuel lift pump. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> What is a lift pump? </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Basically, it’s a fuel supply pump that takes fuel from the tank and transfers it to the injection system. Typically, most diesel engines are equipped with some sort of fuel pump whether it’s a mechanical injection system found in older models or the new models where the pump is integrated into the engine itself. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Why would you need a new one? </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Upgrading engines with aftermarket and performance parts isn’t a new concept and frankly transcends even the diesel world. Just about anyone and everyone wants to upgrade something about their engine, whether gas, diesel, or vegetable oil (not sure how many upgrades are available for a deep fryer, though). Despite the fact that a diesel engine holds the top spot for the most efficient internal combustion over all other engine types, adding a new pump to your diesel engine can vastly increase its performance well past the factory limits. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> How would you go about it? </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> The goal of the modification is to increase the amount of fuel that’s being injected into the engine. You would need to start this process by increasing fuel flow with computer programming (newer models) or by installing high-flow injectors. With the engine demanding more fuel, you’ll inevitably need to upgrade your pump. Bad fuel pressure means less horsepower and, in some cases, damage to the injection pump. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> When deciding which lift diesel  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> lift pump </strong> </a> <span>  to purchase, it’s important to remember that first word: diesel.

Filters that are in poor condition can severely hinder an engine’s ability to perform and cause major issues down the road. While there are similarities between gas engine filters and diesel engine filters, changing the filters on a diesel engine is a bit different. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Before you take a crack at it, here are a few tips to changing your diesel air and fuel filters. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Air Filters </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Air filters are typically located in the same area in which you’d find them in a gas engine. Typically, the filter is located in the cold air collector box in a diesel engine. There is a major precaution that you should take when changing the air filter on a diesel engine and that is to ensure that the engine is off. Diesel engines have very powerful suction and if you were to drop anything in the intake, which leads directly to the engine, you can cause some serious damage. When you locate the filter, simply replace it with a correctly fitting new one. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Fuel Filters </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Diesel fuel systems are inherently different than gas engines and so it’s important to know what you’re looking at before you get started. Fuel filters are essential to diesel engines and keep out four main impurities: water, scale, rust, and dirt. A diesel filtration system consists of two fuel filters, the primary and the secondary diesel fuel filters. The first filter is located between the tank and the engine, with the secondary filter closer to the engine. Most filters are easy to change and simply require you to unscrew the old one and screw the new one into place. Just be sure to moisten the new gasket with fuel first. One thing to note with diesel fuel systems, when you change the filters you need to bleed the air bubbles from the system. Air is the enemy of diesel engines and you can purchase diesel fuel air separation systems to help while the engine runs. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> You can always refer to your owner’s manual to figure out exactly how to change your filters and bleed the system of air. If you choose to use a  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> fuel air separation system </strong> </a> <span> , you may not hear any difference in a six-liter but it is definitely working. If you run into any trouble, contact your local diesel mechanic to provide assistance. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> If you’re looking for fuel air separation systems or universal fuel pumps, check us out today. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 25 Jul 2018 15:46:22 GMT http://www.fassride.com/tips-for-changing-your-diesel-air-and-fuel-filters thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/diesel-filtration-systems-101 <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> The diesel filtration system is essential to the proper functioning and operation of a diesel fuel system. Without the fuel filters, the fuel can become loaded with particulates that can damage or corrode the engine and/or other various components of the diesel fuel system. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> What are they? </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Diesel fuel filters are often referred to as full-flow filters because they handle the entire amount of fuel, i.e. all of the fuel must pass through the filters before it reaches the diesel fuel pump. The  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> diesel filtration system </strong> </a> <span>  is often a multi-stage process, in which the fuel is separated from any particulates that may have been introduced while filling the tank or passing through the fuel lines. Fuel filters are necessary for any fuel system, not just diesel. However, fuel filters are extremely important in diesel systems because of the higher viscosity of diesel fuel compared to gasoline. Diesel fuel also contains more gum and particulates that can cause damage to the injection pump. Some diesel fuel filters are also equipped with a valve that releases the air that collects in the filter. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <strong> The filtration process </strong> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> Most diesel engines are designed with a multi-stage filtration process, usually two stages, but sometimes three. The first filter, known as the primary filter is usually located between the fuel tank and fuel supply pump in most diesel engines. The primary filter uses a coarse material that removes any of the larger particles from the fuel while the smaller particulates are allowed to pass through. The particulates and any accumulated water will fall to the bottom and can be released through a drain plug. Most diesel engines are equipped with a pressure gauge that will indicate when the filter is dirty and needs to be cleaned. </span> </p> <p> <span> The second filter stage, known as the secondary filter, is typically located between the fuel supply pump and injection pump. The secondary filter uses a finer material that rids the fuel of any smaller particles that passed through the primary filter. </span> </p> <p> <span> <span>  </span> </span> </p> <p> <span> Fuel filters are able to withstand a minimum internal differential pressure of 75 pounds per square inch and are necessary to keep your engine running smoothly. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> For Fass fuel pumps and Fass replacement pumps, check us out today. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Wed, 11 Jul 2018 15:48:46 GMT http://www.fassride.com/diesel-filtration-systems-101 thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/a-brief-and-basic-breakdown-of-diesel-fuel-systems <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> There are significant differences between gas and diesel fuels, besides the fact that one will do significant damage to the opposite’s engine. Diesel fuel systems, while they produce a similar output compared to traditional gasoline systems, are inherently different. Diesel fuel systems function in a specific manner, across multiple applications. The system is made up of the following parts. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <h2> <strong> Fuel Tanks </strong> </h2> <h2> <br/> </h2> <p> <span> Diesel fuel tanks don’t differ greatly from gasoline fuel tanks and can come in a variety of shapes and sizes to serve various purposes. The tanks need to be closed off so that nothing get’s into the fuel and therefore into the fuel system, yet the tank needs to be properly ventilated to allow for the fuel to move into the engine. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Fuel Lines </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> The fuel lines are the method by which the diesel moves throughout the fuel system. Diesel fuel lines come in three sizes: heavyweight, medium weight, and lightweight, each serving a specific function within the system. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Fuel Filters </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Fuel filters are an incredibly important aspect of a diesel fuel system. The reason being is that, in most systems, diesel typically needs to be filtered not once — like in traditional gas systems — but multiple times. In most systems, you might find a three-tiered fuel filtration system with layering diesel fuel filters, each one progressively filtering the fuel. Usually, the first tier is a filter screen located at the tank or diesel fuel pump, with a primary fuel filter and secondary filter after that. In a series filter, all of the fuel will travel through each filter stage in succession, while in a parallel filter, the fuel is parted through each filter. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <h2> <strong> Fuel Pumps </strong> </h2> <h2> <span> <br/> </span> </h2> <p> <span> Diesel fuel pumps are another key component of diesel fuel systems. The pump functions by pushing the fuel into the injection system (using the engine as a driving force), which transfers the fuel to the engine. There are universal diesel fuel pumps that can work on the majority of diesel fuel systems. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> What’s left of the system is the injectors, and of course, the fuel itself. Yet, there are around 50 various types of diesel engines, all of which have a fuel system that operates similarly to its counterpart. Whether you choose to use a  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/" target="_blank"> <strong> universal diesel fuel pump </strong> </a> <span> , fuel lift pump, or any other component, your engine will still operate as expected, if not better. </span> </p> <p> <span> <br/> </span> </p> <p> <span> For a range of diesel fuel system parts, including universal diesel fuel pumps, check us out today. </span> <span> <br/> </span> </p> </div> Tue, 10 Jul 2018 15:51:07 GMT http://www.fassride.com/a-brief-and-basic-breakdown-of-diesel-fuel-systems thumbnail main image http://www.fassride.com/high-roller-unbelievable-diesel-built-lbz-suburban <div data-rss-type="text"> <p> <span> Human ambition and imagination have long achieved the most amazing and unbelievable feats. While souped-up, massive car builds aren’t usually the first things that come to mind when discussing profound human achievements, they are nonetheless still on the list. We have no doubt that you’d only have one thing to say when St. Louis native John Eilermann pulls up in his decked-out behemoth, fittingly named “High Roller”: check out the build on that one. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Eilermann had a few basic needs that transformed his 1972 Chevrolet Suburban into the monster it is today: </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <ol> <li> <span> He wanted a vehicle that was large enough to fit five to six people </span> </li> <li> <span> It needed to be able to handle his 300-acre property, off-road style </span> </li> </ol> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Originally, Eilermann was dead-set on building a Jeep or a safari vehicle to meet these needs — that is until he saw their price tags. Legitimate safari vehicles can run up to $150,000, so the wheels were set in motion to produce the luxurious and powerful High Roller. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Powered by a 6.6-liter LBZ Duramax diesel engine, this car has got it all: limo style seating, moonroof, and no backglass to truly give it that safari-style feel. Known affectionately as a “Duraburb”, High Roller rides on 2007 GM 11.5 AAM rear end with a Yukon Grizzly locker, and a 1989 Ford king-pin Dana 60 front end with a Trac-loc limited slip. Matched perfectly with the wheels and tires, High Roller uses a six-inch Rough Country lift kit, Bilstein rear shocks with remote reservoirs, and a 4:56 gear ratio. Although massive, its 550 horsepower and 1,050 lb-ft of torque give it all the power it needs. </span> </p> <p> <br/> </p> <p> <span> Diesel engines are as powerful as they are efficient: boasting an average if 45 MPG highway rating, Eilermann will be able to have his fun without breaking the bank on gas. If you find yourself in the mood to create something as exciting and unique as High Roller, finding the best fuel lift pumps, diesel fuel filters, and diesel filtration systems are a good way to get started. FASS fuel pumps are known to be reliable and clean, and there are undoubtedly a number of  </span> <a href="https://fassride.com/customer-support/locate-a-dealer/" target="_blank"> <strong> FASS fuel system dealers </strong> </a> <span>  near your location.
