Introduction

The 2013-2016 RAM trucks with the 6.7L Cummins engine have a stock in-tank fuel
pump capable of delivering enough fuel to support stock horsepower and mild engine
modifications. For higher horsepower, more fuel supply is required and a high flow fuel
pump is required.

The BD Diesel FlowMax fuel lift pump is a high performance upgrade for your trucks
fuel system that eliminates the factory fuel limitation. This lift pump can supply up to
150 gph of fuel, enough to support 600 horsepower.

Installing this kit is now easier thanks to the supplied quick connect fuel fittings which

eliminate cutting the factory steel lines. This kit comes with 3/8”

fuel line and fittings to connect to the factory system. See the
next page for a list of optional accessories that can be used to
get even more from your fuel system including 1/2" fuel line,
draw straws, fuel bowl deletes, etc.

The FlowMax V3 pumps are a high longevity gerotor design
which results in low noise and high reliability.

1050340-WSP Water Separator Add-on Kit

This kit adds a high micron (low pressure loss) filter to the inlet of
the pump with integral water separator and drain. This is strongly
recommended if removing the stock filter next to the fuel tank.

1050340-FPP Fine Filter Add-on Kit

This kit adds a low micron filter to the outlet of the pump. This is
recommended when bypassing the factory fuel filter on the
engine or for additional fuel filtering performance beyond what
the factory filter offers.

1050345 High Flow Draw Straw Kit

This kit bypasses the stock fuel tank suction connection to
provide higher flow. The kit has a new top mount bulkhead fitting
with an extra-large diameter convoluted pickup tube for reduced
restriction. Draws fuel from the stock fuel pump basket.

1050330 High Flow Sump Kit

This kit installs in the bottom of the fuel tank to reduce restriction
on the supply line. Kit can be installed without dropping the tank.
Includes a screen to keep debris from entering the fuel line.

1050331 Flow-Max Monster 1/2in Line Kit

Replaces the stock 3/8” line with 1/2" all the way from the tank to

the engine. Includes fittings for the Flow-Max pump and the CP3
as well as fuel hose and clamps. Requires use of sump or draw
straw kit.

1050351 Flow-Max Water In Fuel Sensor

Relocates the stock WIF sensor from the fuel bowl on the engine
to the Flow-Max water separator. Includes extension harness
with built in resistor and new sensor that threads into bottom of
the new filter. Requires 1050340-WSP.

Loosen the fuel filler neck clamp and the clamp
on the vent tube. Slide the rubber hoses off the
rigid filler neck.

Locate the small fuel tank vent tube which runs
directly above the large filler neck. Follow this up
the filler neck to the small breather. Cut the wire
ties supporting this tube so that it can be removed
along with the fuel tank.

Unclip the DEF tank hose support and release
the hoses from the fuel tank.

Slightly lower the tank just enough to get your
hand on top to disconnect the fuel lines and
electrical connector. Do not let the tank hang by
the fuel hoses!

Unplug the fuel pump module gray electrical
connector.

Disconnect the two fuel line quick connect fittings
from the top of the fuel pump module.

Slowly lower the tank being careful to ensure the
tank is not hooked on any wiring or hoses.
Transfer the tank from the jack to a suitable work
surface.

Before opening the tank up, thoroughly clean the
area around the fuel pump module. Blow off with
air and scrape off any dirt, debris and rust
otherwise this will enter the fuel inside the tank.

Remove the lock ring from the fuel pump module
by tapping it on the tangs with a mallet and
screwdriver or suitable tools. Work around the
ring to move it evenly to make removal easier.

Lift the fuel pump module out of the fuel tank
being careful not to damage the fuel float arm or
sender unit. Pour excess fuel from the bowl back
into the tank.

Cut the larger of the two Teflon fuel pickup tubes
at the top of the fuel module. Use a utility knife to
create a slit in the tube. Cut the other end of the
flexible tube off at the “H” adapter. Leave the
other smaller tube in place and leave the return
line in place.

Cut off a short section of supplied black rubber
hose (1604053). Use one of the supplied hose
clamps (1505001) to attach the hose to the top of
the fuel module assembly.
