There is a pressure sensor on the input of your hpfp that monitors fuel pressure going in. If this fuel pressure gets too low mainly from a plugged fuel filter it will put the truck into limp mode to protect the fuel pump so there's nothing to worry about.
Also you're the second person I've read recently that a ford dealer wanted to replace a fuel system and the second dealer replaced the filter and lift pump and all was well.
Excellent info Fish. Thank you.
As per the thread, I've openly discussed the issues I've had as requested. Had I not visited Dealer #2 this would have been a much smaller issue. Yes a major inconvenience for a couple days but not a show stopper. Switch out the pump send me on my way, stuff happens. FWIW I switched from another brand and am not a die hard, head in the sand fan of any of them. I bought the tool that I liked best to accomplish what I need. Had I drove xxxx with a wide track front end and 19.5s, one of those other brands may have been sitting outside rather than the Ford.
Definitely good information.
I too am a fan of the "true" F-450 with the 19.5s. I was quite disappointed when they neutered them a few years ago and am glad to see them back. I think if they had been available when I bought my truck I just may have had one now myself :)
