My current fuel system has a aeromotive A1000 fuel pump. Lately I have noticed it is getting louder and louder and I think it is going to die soon. I was wondering what everyone has found that is working really good as far as reliability. I do have my tank sumped and I am also running 5/8 line from the tank to the pump. I seem lately I have been hearing about a lot of the aeromotive pumps failing.
A super duty pump may good for that but two pumps are good for more. Do you have a pre-pump filter? There is an Aeromotive pump meant for diesel/marine applications that is black.
I just put a SD pump on my OBS. Whatever setup it should have a pre-pump filter.

I have been leaning towards running two superduty pumps. I do have a pre pump filter for the aeromotive pump. I am running a 100 micron prepump filter and a 5 micron filter after the pump. I was wondering if all of the superduty pump are the same. I just wish the superduty pumps would accept a fitting instead if having to use the rubber hose and hose clamps.
I to am having some trouble with mine also.Mine quit working today,but a good knock to it and it start working again.So,what other pump is there to use beside the dual factory ones from a SD?

cliff, if your pump is to the point of having to pop it to get it to start u are on borrowed time, i will be getting rid of the two aeromotives a1000's i have this week, one is a fresh rebuild with 0 time, the other has about 3k on it, let me know if u need one., scott
