Well missed starting her up one day and now she will not start. Tryed to prime her again but the lift pump must be shot. All i get is a little fuel and air mix after cranking way to long almost ran the bats dead. aua

Advance sells a $50 electric diesel fuel pump that you can use in place of your lift pump. Not only is it easier to install, it makes bleeding the fuel system a lot easier when you don't need to crank the whole engine to do it. Unless you start developing some serious power, you won't need to worry about out running it.

Full disclosure; I do not have one of these yet. I will when my lift pump craps out on me though.
