SUMMIT CRUISERS
SILVER Star
About 2.5 years and 80k ago I changed my fuel pump assembly out due to loss of power. Strainer was obviously clogged at that time. Last weekend I had to drop the tank again to do the same. This time I had P0171 and P0174 codes popping up. I knew the fuel pump strainer was probably clogged again. Anyway this time I removed the little strainer on the fuel pump and added an inline filter on the frame rail. Tank was spotless and had some very small particles in the fuel pump assembly. Anyway, I cut out about 6” of the steel fuel line and installed a 10 micron plastic clear filter so I could monitor it when needing changing. Here’s a few pics. New filter added, removed fuel line and small strainer removed.
I really wish Mr. T would have used a much bigger fuel pump strainer and added an in-line fuel filter.
