Hello all. I put on an inline auxillary Airtex fuel pump. However, it is loud and I can hear it very clearly inside. By the sound of it, it is a pulse type pump. How is everyone else's experience with the inline pumps? |

I have mr gasket 12-D installed for a couple months on mine, the noise isnt even noticeable except right before start up, my jeep is straight piped from turbo back so it is a lil louder, but i wish was pump was louder, the louder the better!! |

I spent the extra money and got a Kennedy lift pump. i can only hear it when i crawl under the jeep. It has been super reliable. http://liberty.eurekaboy.com/kennedy.htm |

I put on a Faucet pump from NAPA and it cured my driveabilty problems so I took the plunge and put the Dodge/Cummins pump in the tank It was a inexpensive test to see if a lift pump was needed and in my case it was. |

I also have a Kennedy pump and it has worked very well. It puts out a consistent 6 psi, but I had to add a fuel pressure gage to confirm it was working--it was that quiet. |

I have an Airtex brand Duramax pump. It is a "shuttle" type pump and generates a noticeable da, da, da kind of sound when I key the ignition to "on", as it is mounted right under the drivers seat, on the frame rail. When the engine is idling I can hear it if I really try, but when the engine is under any power I can't notice a thing. |

My Carter makes some noise, but when I got rid of the stock muffler, its' not a problem any more, I only hear it when the key is on before I crank to start. Rubber isolators and fuel line hoses will quiet it down a lot more than direct bolting to the chassis or frame. |

Yes, I bolted it directly to the cross member support underneath the rear driver's side seat. I have some grommets that I could isolate the unit. Good idea. I will give that a try. |

Fitted a Facet in the engine bay and also found it to be a bit noisy but it did the job until i replaced it with a Huco pump which is great. |
