:doh: Why would a moderator post this on a site vendors area whom sells the very part in question that's now getting negative reviews???? :doh:
 
Lol guess we will have to see how long my two pump setup lasts! (Holley black knock off and the stock in tank pump) I figure if I keep the tank full, theres no air issue!

nope no 1/4 tank issue just an empty tank issue!! :lolly:

I have a mitusa pump I run with a walbro 392 pump (as back up) that I got off ebay for under 100 bucks it pumps 23 psi even at WOT doesn't skip a beat even with the mitusa not hooked up.

OK, since your smart, I'll assume that's very true. Thanks for establishing that point.

Next step: dual modded pumps. Can the stock fuel canister flow enough and provide 3micron filtration? Don't think so with that tiny ID line

Enter FASS and AirDog. Filtration, water separation and air separation, what the stock canister from Dodge did, but at a higher volume and lower micron.


So, i fail to see the myth? Should I install my stock canister and fuel pump to supply my dual cp3's?

Tim Barber dose it through the factory canister, pretty sure he filters the fuel through a 2 micron filter before the canister but he has dual cp3's and is over 1k hp on fuel only and i think thats with 3/8" fuel line.
Just sayin is all.... not to disagree Jason.

No comment on the air removal feature but I'm still happy with my AD150. Has been very reliable for me and 95% plug and play (needed to go to hardware to come up with reducers for the filler neck return).
 
I see I used the wrong bait for this thread. Still waiting for Anthony to show some science behind the product so I can step on the guys neck that posted the stuff I quoted.
 
Well, I'll add that I run an AD2/165 at 60psi, and use a mech (outside the windshield) gauge with no dampener.

Needle on the gauge doesn't flutter like it ought to be doin if there was air in the fuel.
 
Sorry I missed this. Its not mad science but simply sommething others didn't catch onto years ago. I won't sit here and say how its done so everyone can duplicate how its done and I lose business. But I can show how ours works vs. whats out there and show you ours passes no air and others do.
Air Separation is a positive for the pump but its main purpose is to pump fuel at a volume everyone needs and be reliable. Some big changes were just put into production a couple weeks ago. Shouldn't see an AirDog or Raptor fail again. Ill see if I can get a factory style set up on a demo vs. our set up and let you view it for yourself. Right now I'm driving and can't quite do that. Head to TS to put a pump on a new Dmax. Dennis' place is full of new rides!!

No problem. If I claim it I should be able to back it up. I can so its all good. I have nothing to hide. Anyone can ask me anything.

Research and development via customers?





(ohh I know this all to well with software/hardware...)
 
So is this a bash AirDog thread now? Because I worked my butt off to better the pump. Product developement doesn't happen overnight. The more you sell the more potential problems show and you find better ways of doing things etc. Thats with anything. Sorry I spent the last year and a half trying to make them the best they can be. Next time Ill think it up and put it into production immediatly without doing my own testing first. Lucky for anyone that had an Airdog problem we gave all the opportunity for a warranty and if you didn't fill the card out its your own fault. I did my part did you do yours? Well I'm done with this thread already. That didn't take long.

I think that is a bit much Jason. No product is 100% right out of the gate. Nor can you wait for years of private R&D to get a product to market. And everyone beats on their stuff differently. And if the company made zero upgrades over time, you could not expect them to stay in business for very long. After time on the market, if a weak point was found, a company must upgrade said weakness. I wouldn't call that R&D via customers.


NOW yor world of computers is a bit of a shady/rush-to-market industry or fall behind kind of world.
 
I don't think many would argue they don't pump fuel, and in general work great. You would have to be deaf dumb and blind to not know of the electric motor issues.

Lost track of how many machines around here, last one that showed up a MT865 CAT, and of course no electric lift pump from the factory, in fact there is not a single machine on the place that has a electric lift from the factory, no engineer would fit a electric over a mechanical due to the very issues that have plagued both companies.

BUT as a quick retrofit to those who need more fuel why not. Would I put one on my 400K tractor that has a perfectly working and designed fuel system, errrr no.

Great to hear about a better motor though.
