I have a 2010 duramax LMM. I just installed the AirDog II 165 5G a week ago. I noticed that if I started the truck immediately after the glowplug light goes out, no problem. If I let the pump run 30 seconds or a minute [I did that checking for leaks] then start the truck, it cranked over for a few seconds before firing. It ran just fine though. Today I put a pressure gauge on the airdog and found it was set for 7 PSI. I turned it down to 5.5 PSI, took it for a drive and checked again engine running. Setting was stable at 6 PSI with truck idling. Starts and runs great.
Ok airdog i have a question. My truck has an Airdog 2 on it and when i shut down my truck the pump doesnt ahut off I have to unplug it amd leave it unplugged or not im plagued with ha ing to go back and forth at each stop. So far all fuses are fine. And i swapped the relay with the bkower relay and it still didmt shut off. 2001 Ford F250 SuperDuty 7.3L crewcab long bed
I just bought an airdog original and slapped it onto my LLY. The truck would start up almost instantly before the pump but immediately after it takes a few extended cranks for the truck to turn over. Once the truck is running I can audibly hear that the pump is running and the truck is running easier? The starter is fresh along with the batteries. Could this be the pump needing the pressure changed? The LLY just has exhaust and cold air intake...
So what is the recommend fuel pressure level? Where is this chart or table of values? I have a 2013 LML with the Airdog 5g going to buy a gauge to mount on the pump but can not seem to find a spec on what pressure the pump should output??? Any help appreciated
There's really no chart to go by. For and LML, the pressure should be 8-10psi. If you have any other questions during your installation, give our tech department a call at 317-421-3180.
All of our pumps are tested on a test bench for flow rate, vacuum, and set to pressure before they leave the facility. Check to see what fuel pressure the AirDog is putting out on the truck.
Great video great info. I can't find where I can buy different springs for the 1st Gen pump and I know it doesn't come in the kit. Any info would be appreciated
I'm new to diesel truck maintenance, so how would I know what pressure it's at without a gauge will it show on the truck or do I need to buy a gauge. I'm looking @ buying an airdog lift pump for a Duramax LML (2014 GMC Sierra HD 6.6 turbo diesel), I understand how to adjust the pressure, but trying to figure out where to see what the pressure is at. Thanks in advance if you understood my question.
You will need, at least, a mechanical gauge installed in our pumps to adjust pressure. All our pumps, except the frrp, come with an 1/8" npt port to measure fuel pressure.
@@Long_Island_Justin The pumps are preset from the factory. That being said, every truck varies a little bit on how much fuel is consumed and it's never a bad idea to check fuel pressure after installation.

On an airdog 2 what is the stock pressure that it comes with out the box how could you tell without a gauge
I have on my Cummins a tuner, it says about 18-21, too high for me so I tuned it down
And how much needs to be for a duramax 2004 ??

Give our technicians a call!
Where do I get the different springs for my different psi

just installed the air dog11 g4 ,when i kick it down it blows out black smoke an has no power. do i need to back off the pressure?
Would a poorly adjusted airdog pump prevent a lb7 duramax from getting the proper PSI at the fuel rail to start?

Give our tech line a call at 317-421-3180 and they can get you the spring you need.
@@AirDogSales Appreciate it
Have a issue with my fp-150 blowing fusses and seems to be getting hot not sure if the pump is shorted out or what?

Is there a gauge that you can put on the pump it’s self
Absolutely! Above the fuel filter there is a 1/8" pipe thread port that you can thread a fuel pressure gauge into!

@@AirDogSales OK, thank you for the response, I'll look into it👍
@@AirDogSales didn’t know I had to buy a gauge, I thought it came pre set for the truck I purchased it for, bummer.

Is this the same on all airdogs
What are the differences between the AirDog Raptor 4G and the original? Is one cheaper quality than the other?
What is the point of turning the pressure up? Going to the drag strip should I turn mine a little? Thanks
You'll need a gauge to fine tune it.
Thank you
