The one good thing about the 2011+ Powerstroke is that you don't need to swap over to a CP3 to keep metal particle from getting to your injectors. Since the Ford has two fuel filters, a primary and secondary(GM doesn't), then all you would need is a $300 S&S CP4.2 bypass kit. It blocks the fuel from going straight from the pump to the injectors without passing through a fuel filter or the internal filter on the CP4 first. It will make the pump as reliable as the CP3, but it will at least mitigate the damage when it grenades.
I have no doubts that you could do the same on the new Cummins since it also has both a primary and secondary filter.
True. I wonder if there are already provisions for that from the factory, or if anyone on any of the various message boards has even looked. Regardless, the aftermarket should have varying options for all levels of concern soon enough.
