It’s been done many times. Especially in boosted applications. It WILL work but you need to add in a vacuum referenced mechanical fuel regulator and flash the PCM with EFILive or HPTUNER. First setting is FPCM to “Not Fitted”. As of right now you have no mechanism controlling fuel pressure at all seeing as how the FPCM handles this. You’ll then need to set desired/default pressure at around 400kpa. Last you’d need to change injector offset VS Pressure Delta VS IGNV and injector flow rates to static fuel cell.

Bypassed mine 3 years ago still going strong

How does it respond on the open hwy?

What are the relay PIN numbers for each color wire?

Did u use the green/white to or just the grey to pump

I bypassed the module to eliminate several parameters as the issue. It will set a check engine light for high voltage because the voltage is adjusted by the ECU.

I did about the same thing on my truck. Haven't had any issues

Hey do you have the diagram to do it please?

My problem is that injectors are dumping fuel. "Truck will run but it's flooding and smoking like a diesel. Could the FSCM be responsible for that? I could see if one or two injectors went bad I would need to replace some injectors but for this bad of a fuel dump problem, it seems like some kind of programming/message issue.

I'm not sure, my instincts would make me think it's Maf or map sensor, or something on the intake side could be malfunctioning.

Does this method keep the check engine light on? Thanks in advance.

@thedriver02

Жыл бұрын

Yes actually you will in fact have a check engine light after doing this.

How is this running? and does your engine have a fuel return line on it? I got an 08 and I'm told it doesn't have a fuel return line and therefore bypassing the module will result in too much fuel because of the lack of the return line.

It's been running just fine. I've read that it has a "return less" system, but it looks like a lot lines running to the tank, so I'm really not sure if it has a return of some sort or not. But no problems and others have said the same. I'm going to permanently wire it to run this way soon.

@@thedriver02That's good to know. Do you notice any difference at all in how it's running? like acceleration, or driving on the highway or freeway? What's your fuel pressure running at? how much PSI?

@thedriver02

Жыл бұрын

@Walk3rsHyper never checked actual fuel pressure, but it has been accelerating just fine getting on the freeway, no stumbling or loss of power noticed. I suspect it might if you were accelerating at full throttle for an extended period like drag strip or something, but foot to the floor for a few seconds or so I haven't noticed anything different.

Variable fuel pressure for different throttle position loads-full pressure for idling,partial throttle...seems as if the milage will fall as will system longevity...

Its a returnless fuel system and with 12volts constant it will start to show very rich conditions. I actually just diagnosed and repaired a truck where they did the exact same thing. It will start dying and running poor.

Usual root issue being intermittent issues in the fuse box/ecm and the like. Because it corrodes. They’re all stacked. And moisture finds its way in and stays sandwiched in between - nice moist, damp and corroded.

It is still working just fine, about a year so far. You can try jumping the terminals with some wires, just go straight across the connector on the harness and you should hear the pump running. Then it's up to you to either add a switch, or wire up a relay as I did.

Theres a easier way to do this. If you have a tuner. You can change a setting from varriable to fixed speed. Yes by doing this will make the fuel b pump to 50% load. I was messing around to figurge a issue im dealing. Your the only that mentions anything close to dealing with.

I no my fuel pump is gone so I may also have issues with pcm or ecm as well atleast if one of those is bad I can bypass and hard wire to see if I can get it to fire 🔥 but if the fuel pump and my ecm is bad I'll need to get it replaced and programmed as well

Im currently going thru the same thing. Ive bypassed the fuel pump relay and the pump stays on constantly but it still wont start so i thought my injectors weren't working

Once I did the bypass the truck wouldn't start. Don't bother with starting fluid lol it took to much. Once I put about 3 or 4 ounces of good gas in the throttle body it started and ran long enough to get all the junk out from rolling it over and over trying to start it. Hope this helps. Also if you do the relay bypass make sure you read your relay diagram as in this video his power to relay was green.. mine was yellow but everything "looked the same"..

How are you regulating fuel pressure?

$600 at the dealer but the problem is in the wiring then maybe $1200 with diagnosing. My truck is a beater work truck farm truck, so I choose this route. Also this could work for someone doing an LS swap using stock ecu.
