Ram Fuel Lift Pump Kit

2 items

A diesel fuel lift pump kit must match the engine's fuel system and the way its lines and wiring connect. Available pump systems differ in flow rating and included components. Identify whether the repair calls for a lift pump assembly or a fuel-line service kit, then match the engine application and the connections required by that system.

Choosing A Diesel Fuel Lift Pump Kit

A diesel fuel lift pump kit must match the engine's fuel system and the way its lines and wiring connect. Available pump systems differ in flow rating and included components. Identify whether the repair calls for a lift pump assembly or a fuel-line service kit, then match the engine application and the connections required by that system.

What A Diesel Lift Pump Does

The lift pump moves diesel fuel from the tank through the supply side of the system. Depending on the engine's layout, a filter and other components sit along that path before fuel reaches the injection equipment.

On a system with a separate high-pressure pump, the lift pump supplies the low-pressure side. The injection pump then raises pressure for injection. These components do different jobs, so a fuel-supply problem requires checking the circuit where the restriction or pressure loss occurs.

What Is Included In A Lift Pump Kit?

Kit contents are part of the selection. Some A-Premium pump systems list a pump, fuel lines, a regulator, a bracket and a wiring harness. A separate regulated return-line kit has a different parts list and should not be assumed to contain a lift pump.

Check the inlet and outlet connections, hose routing, electrical connections and mounting location against the system being serviced. Fuel filters, fittings and hardware are supplied according to the individual package, so identify the items the repair still needs.

Hard Starting And Low Fuel Supply

Hard starting, hesitation or a loss of power can accompany a fuel-delivery problem, but those symptoms do not identify the lift pump on their own. Restrictions, air entering a line or an electrical supply fault can also affect delivery.

A pressure or flow check performed according to the engine's service procedure helps locate the problem. Diesel injection systems can operate at high pressure; use the prescribed equipment and service procedures rather than loosening a fuel connection to test it.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Are all diesel lift pumps electric?

Diesel engines can use different lift-pump arrangements. An electric pump uses a power circuit, while some engine designs use a mechanically driven supply pump. Choose the replacement specified for the engine and existing fuel system rather than switching drive types by appearance.

Is a higher flow rating always a better choice?

Flow capacity is only one part of the match. The pump must also suit the engine's supply-pressure requirements, fuel connections and electrical system. Select a rating intended for the application rather than treating the largest number as an automatic upgrade.

Can replacing the lift pump fix a blocked fuel filter?

A replacement pump will not clear a restriction in the filter. A blocked filter can limit fuel supply and contribute to hard starting or a loss of power, so inspect and service the filter as needed when diagnosing the supply circuit.

Can a diesel lift pump kit be used for gasoline?

Select fuel-system parts for the fuel and application specified by their manufacturer. A diesel kit is not automatically suitable for a gasoline system; its fittings, seals and operating requirements must be approved for that use.

Does the fuel system need priming after pump service?

Opening a fuel line or changing a filter can introduce air into the supply circuit. Some systems use the lift pump during priming; others use a separate primer. Follow the engine-specific procedure, including the precautions for the high-pressure side.
