like I've been asking everyone since the beginning, if you have a problem with any of my statements of fact, then please, for the benefit of all, correct me!





Please Mr X I really respect your-your expert opinion. I'm so glad we have you to keep us straight with all these facts. Would you please please give me the details on how my Bosch pump will self destruct if my lift pump fails. Will it-it be like a bomb or something. I really wouldn't want to get my wittle self hurt. I did pull the fuse on my lift pump and measure the vac at idle and WOT and it did seem kinda OK. Have I been sitting on a time BOMB for 18000 miles.


Thanks in advance for your expert obsession - I mean opinion

To answer your questions.


Did Kennedy sell you that lift pump after you had a stall? Nope and also no stall.


Is a an AC Delco? Yep


Aren't they rated for about 60,000 miles? Dunno/Don't care


Don't you need still another filter to protect the AC Delco lift pump? Nope


How do you have it wired? Ignition


Need a relay? Nahhhh


Did you wire it to an oil pressure switch so in case of an accident, it will turn off, and not continue pumping diesel all over the scene? Yep, but soon to change.


Seems like a lot of extra trouble just to make a filter work; especiallyh since the experts have concluded ther's no problem with "outgassing" and cavitation. Did someone say there is no outgassing. Hmmmm, How did they verify this? This is simple physics. Maybe you should ask the ones who got their hands dirty researching this. Maybe I should not be dealing with 60,000 barrels of oil a day that contains about 6mmcfd flash gas (6 million cubic feet) which is calculated and measured to API standards at many different stages based pressure drops and temps among others.


A Bear, weren't you the one that first invented the word "out gassing?" Nope, but I used the statement to stay on the same page with others. Never heard of the word before I got here. Feel free to check. I know its one of your specialties.


What exactly do you not agree with. Or are you just another TDP person coming over here with a chip on your shoulder? I think everyone here knows what I disagree with. I think many others share that feeling. No chip, nor am I trying to push a lift pump. I think everyone is very capable of making their own informed desision for their setup.


Frankly I will no longer respond to your experties. Conflict is no way to start a forum unless it is constructive. Just thought I would set the record straight on your questions.

I gathered from the below Kennedy post of 5/19/03, that you bought it from him. I guess he gave it to you? Yep, The lift pump was a trade off for information gathering while John was busy getting ready for the Dino Run. I earned the pump. I have nothing to hide.


Dig! Dig! Dig! You will never catch me in a lie. I told you in the past It's not my style. The truth is always easy to remember.

Mr X,


Stall and no start is a little bit different. I think it was common knowledge on the DP that I did experience a no start. I posted it more than once. Man you are so easy. I did expect that reply by the way. You are now so predictable. I guess the definition of stall and no start will be next. That would be real lame. But again....

Like I told you before, being dishonest was not in my up bringing. Why is that so difficult for you?

On edit: Didn't you drive some 150 miles to have a qualified mechanic install your filter.

I knew it! I knew it! Man you are so easy.


Well I guess one could interpret it differently. I usually associate a stall with a moving vehicle or some place one would shelter an a_s. Where do you stay.
