dead fuel pump???? 99 7.3

[jasoncrydn]

truck started running bad going up the hwy and then died , it refired one time then just sort of sputterd when i tried to start it. had it towed home and checked all the fuses could find no blown fuses,check engine has not come on. i could not hear the fuel pump cycle. so i drained the filter bowl and removed the filter..cylce the key , nothing no fuel nowhere. so i am pretty sure there is a bad fuel pump ,... just wondering if there is another sensor that could shut of the fuel pump for any reason. wnat to make sure its not something else . and what is the part # ? i pretty sure its a walbro on these trucks...is there a improved better pump to replace with

if your sure your not getting any fuel to the bowl, it might be the low pressure pump, or could be the fuel safety shut off switch. try resetting the switch first.

same thing happend to me, go to arizonatpi.com and look up the walbaro pump, i belive its called the gs392 or gls392. Its held up fine ever since i put it in.

If you remove the fuel filter, you won't get any fuel in the bowl because there is a spring loaded plunger that will not allow the flow of fuel without the filter installed. You can take the top off of the fuel filter canister and leave the filter in to check for fuel, but it won't work without the filer installed.

Also, have you replaced your cam sensor recently? They can cause the same symptoms you are having, and they are a pretty common failure.

i had the cam sensor replaced by the local dealer last year...where is the fuel safety shutoff located . i will reinstall the filter and try it again

reinstalled the filter ...still no fuel pump does not turn on and the fuse is not blown

I went with the Walbro GSL-392 also and it works great and flows more fuel for larger injectors cost me $120-130 shipped
