Ok my friend and I were talking and wondering if there is a way or kit to put a fuel return line in these trucks?

 

No kits out there, you would have to build it from scratch.

 

Any reason you want a fuel return line?

 

A circulating fuel system keeps the fuel cooler, reduces the amount of 'stuff' that accumulates in the fuel rail, (and thus, in your injectors....) Keeps fuel circulating thru the pump, which cools the pump, so it lasts longer..... etc. Lots of benefits to a return style system.

Merc is correct. There are no bolt on kits, would have to fab one up.

 

How do the fuel pumps last so long without a recirc? Mine's original with 223k on it. My GMC K-2500 went only 98K before needing a new one. My neighbor's Ford... 137K. I did a fuel pump in a Nissan with 150K. Granted these were all vehicles from the late '80s early '90s.

 

^I do believe that yours is sort of an anomoly.

My mom's Ram van had 2 fuel pumps go out and it didn't even have 100k mi yet.

I think it depends on the quality of the pump.

 

My whole truck was an anomaly lol. It was known as a strawberry as opposed to a lemon as it was the highest mileage truck in the fleet (before i bought it) that had never needed any serious work other than a few steering components and brakes.

 

now that you say that things will be starting to break!

mine has 190k on the stock pump.... now im praying it starts haha

 

Oh since the conversion I've been breaking things relatively often, primarily due to heavy abuse off road. It's how you find the weak points!
