    In Michigan go to fuels stations that are owned by companies. Why? Because Company owned fuel stations are forced to have their fuel, pumps, and tanks checked quarterly. Your typical corner stations are privately owned franchises that aren't required by law to be checked. You would do yourselves a favor by going to company owned stations like Sam's Costco Meijer BJ's they own those stations and are not private franchises and are required by law to be inspected and maintained for fuel Quality!

He also told me I probably should return it because it didn't make much sense the way it worked on 2017's and up. I did return it. When I posted about having to pay a 15% restocking fee I was shocked how many people told me I was very lucky I didn't install it becasue they did and had big problems.

My truck is still running strong with the OE CP4 and filter(s). However, for peace of mind last year I installed your fuel bypass system. If an OE CP4 is not introduced to water, air, DEF or gas it will continue doing the job. Not running and not working a diesel engine is hard on them. They aren’t a good choice to run three blocks to the grocery the return. Work it with cetane additive and it will serve you well.

The bobcats we have are common rail too and guess what, just as susceptible to bad fuel. Fuel quality has gone down consistently in my area, its certainly kept diesel shops busy. I will probably put a dcr in my 2017 because it has already had a relief and fuel rail issue that led to replacement but the cp4 survived.

    Instead of buying this chinese made pump that doesn't have long-term testing on the 6.7. RCD CPX is a better choice. Buckets are pinned, which makes rotation (cause of failures) impossible, and case fuel is routed back to tank. All while keeping the 4 pulse per rotation setup, which is what the 6.7 is designed for, not the 2 pump dcr.

    I've been considering this pump for my truck but have received a lot of Super Duty owners who are skeptical due to the pump being made in China. Some who did purchase the pump reported things like the engine feeling off, possibly due to the DCR having two pulses per revolution versus the CP4 having four pulses per revolution. Something about being in sync. I'm not a modern diesel pro, but before I blow over $2,000 to replace a CP4 that has 160k on the clock with no issues (I run 4oz OptiLube XL per 20gal) I want to be thoroughly informed. This video shows that the pump can stand up to some serious abuse, but I'm still on the fence. Have you guys received any complaints or returns (that you can speak about publicly) that would shed light on some of the mentioned concerns above? I have no idea if the guys complaining have stock trucks or modded ones (mine is bone stock) and I imagine modded ones with a different pump would give issues. Just trying to determine whether or not I should drop cash on such an expensive part when my stock part is fine.

    Great question and it's wise to get as much information as possible before spend your hard-earned money. There are 3,500+ and counting DCRs in service at this time, and with that there have been a few complaints, most of which can be attributed to install error or other systems that were apart during the install. Some complaints have been legitimate warranty issues, yet none of them was determined to be a result of 2 pulses vs 4 pulses. A common rail fuel pump does not need to be in sync with the engine, it just makes pressure. This video will help better-explain: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dW2Bs7igYaSthtY.htmlsi=xoeIcwzhCjTCzoW3 Current DCRs are made in China, yet a US-based plant is starting up in order to support the US DCR market that has been created. DCR owners can take pride in knowing that they are playing a role in bringing manufacturing back to the USA. As for quality, we have complete confidence in the DCR, regardless of where it is made. That's why we are willing to put our name and warranty on it. We don't blame you for being skeptical of a new product. Since we just launched it back in June, the DCR does not have a long track record... yet making metal is not on it. In the rare instances of a warranty issue, we have taken care of it in a timely manner... and will continue to do so. We would love to have your business and will stand behind DCR Pump Conversion.

    The can that those filters sits in are metal and are capable of rusting out exactly like the FASS system. Anything that hold water will eventually rust unless it's made out of something that prevents it. The other thing is regular maintenance.

    In this particular case, the truck owner is really good about changing filters; he changes fuel filters with every oil change. The filters in the video were installed in March of 2023 and we estimate that he got a bad batch of fuel sometime before April, and then went on vacation for a week. The amount of rust suggests that the truck was sitting for a while with water in it. Since it's his work truck, the only week it sat was during the vacation. We're thrilled that the DCR could have been eating rust and water for months and was still making pressure!

    I’m about to buy a new F-350. Never owned a diesel, always purchased gasoline converted to propane/gas combo. We had a cattle ranch but sold and now I have a construction company. So…. A gasoline engine run on propane will be absolutely spotless clean inside. The oil will look clean even after 10,000 miles. That being said, you loose a lot of power with propane so when we pulled a very heavy trailer up to our ranch from the cities around us, we often switched to gasoline. Our ranch was at 4000-7000 ft msl and the cities around us were at 1000-1500’ msl. So buying a diesel sends a lot of caution signs to my mind.

    i just ordered the dcr conversion kit for my 13 6.7 powerstroke yesterday. were building the truck and currently have it torn down. i have a fass system titanium series and disaster prevention kit to install on this build aswell but it looks like i might be better off to stick with the oem since ive decided to throw the DCR in while we have it apart. would you agree or do you think it would be fine to just put it all in? it will be mainly a daily drivable tow rig that can make a strong pull if needed. but not trying to make anything to crazy with it just looking for reliability and dependability.

    So far so good on the DCR that ate the rust and water. It is still running in the truck without issue. We don't have enough data to give you a service life estimate, since none have failed yet. The only catastrophic failure we have seen so far is when spinning it backwards on a test bench. The 6.7F DCR is designed to turn one way due to the offset of the plungers. The good news is that no debris was passed through the plungers. We only recommend running clean diesel through them, but there is at least one instance of a DCR handling water.

    The filters were actually generating rust because of the water in the fuel. I’ve always been a fan of the factory setup for the better micron rating, factory drain and sensor. For higher hp setups once you have upgraded injectors or stroker/dual pumps I’ve always recommended run the aftermarket lift pump feeding the factory FCM.

In this case the fuel pump warranty is the only thing voided. In order for Ford to be able to deny a warranty claim they have to prove it was a direct result of a given modification. Read up on the moss ferguson case. It is federal law that auto manufactuerers must honor their warranties regardless of after market modifications unless they can prove a specific modification caused the issue and even then they can only deny that specific claim. The warranty remains in effect for all other failures in all other systems on the truck.

    The SPE Cat filter kit retains the factory WIF sensor and puts it before the water separator, how well it works IDK, but the cat filter at least has the water drain valve on the bottom of the water separator so you can periodically drain it to check for water. Just FYI anyone with a stock 6.7 ford fuel system you should periodically drain your water separator after it's been sitting a for a few hours. This allows all the water to separate from the fuel and get drained out.

    The parts before AND after the filter rusted. The rust didn't make it past the filters but rather rust formed on the parts that come after the filter so it went straight into the pump. What's more curious is why the injectors weren't damaged. The DCR has a small screen but it looked mostly empty of debris. Either way, rust didn't get past the filter is was created after the point of filtration within the filter itself.

    12,600 miles total and 6,000 miles since the last fuel filter change back in March. Based on the amount of rust, we estimate that water was introduced sometime before April, when the truck sat for a week while the owner was on vacation.

    @@FRZNTYM1 The frequency of use does not play much of a role in water contamination, but it does play a role in corrosion. In the case of this truck, the rust in the filter was very bad, which suggests that it sat with water in the filter for some time. Driving the truck will move fuel and water throughout the system, which is why we also saw rust formation on the return lines and inside of the pump. Water can cause issues either way. What really made the difference, in this case, was the DCR pump. It survived the water and rust, and is still running in the truck today... scored bushings and all. We've had reports of many CP4 warranties being denied due to fuel contamination, yet with a DCR it does not appear to be an issue.

Even my older mechanical diesels get the same treatment, and once I started owning newer common rail diesels I figured it's cheap insurance to keep the fuel system clean as I can. Maybe some areas have cleaner fuel, but I've always just noted that diesel is a dirty fuel, whether it be crap, algae or water.

Since 2012, S&S has been built off of our expertise and innovation in modern diesel fuel systems, for competition and durability alike. Fear has nothing to do with our success, yet trust does.
