LMM: Aeromotive Tsunami Pump

[jcambron]

I have a Tsunami pump laying around from a previous project. I have searched the aeromotive site and can not find much info on the pump. Will this pump flow enough to be an effective lift pump for my LMM. I would love to use it and install a filter to try and help with the fuel rail loss I have currently. Thanks in advance for the info.

i would imagine it would work. but maybe only for a short period. it might not be made for diesel fuel. also i'm sure with a name like tsunami you would have to turn the pressure down to 10-12 psi.

have the regulator also the pump is for efi or carb vehicles. my concern is with the longevity if used with diesel and flow capacity. may just be a long shot but have it laying around so was a thought. better than the $400+ kits that are available

dont forget about the ppe pumps that go for like 160....


might be a better choice but i say heck with it run the tsunami till it fails...just carry the tools to bypass it in case it seizes and cuts off flow

if the AE pump fails hopefully you will have saved up enough money to do a real pump like a Raptor or Airdog. the PPE ones are nice but they will fail over time as well.

yea i know they had problems but i heard they were corrected....

dmaxchris has been running one for a while and seems to like it a lot

they might have. i haven't had any calls about them lately however we sell raptors and ADs 10>1 over the PPE.

I have been running my PPE pump for almost 3 years...

I have run them on a few Dodges and like them. I would run one on my Duramax in a second, with a regulator.

what should the pressure be set too out of the pump?

10-12psi...
