Intank, inline or boost a pump?
#1
Have a guy who is loosing 20psi pressure at WOT with 42lbers. I figure the intank pump is the best option but it costs the most, is the inline just as reliable?

this depends on his abilities. if dropping the tank is an option as well as making the pump conversion work, i recomend that. otherwise it simply depends on his fuel system. if you have a returnless system the boost a pump works well. if you have a return fuel system the inline pump works out well.

dropping the tank wasnt to bad as long as you have less than a 1/4 tank of gas in there. It was 4 quick disconnects, filler tube, evap canister, and 2 straps + ground wire. I had it on the floor inside of an hour by myself. Most of the time was wrestling with what to do with the pump i had to put in. As you read in that thread, i decided to keep it stock instead of losing some of the functionality of the stock bucket and its abilities. Floor jack and a piece of 1x6 make it a little easier to drop also. I have never done it by taking off the bed, so i cant say whether its easier that way or not but i would imagine it is, just definately not a one man job that way...

.I have done it both ways, dropping the tank (with less than 1/4 tank), and pulling the bed. It is much easier IMHO to pull the bed.
It is a one man job if you have rafters and a come-along.
There is some good info about in-tank pumps as well as inline pumps.
