VP44 info:
The VP44 Is dependant on the lift
pump for Cooling and Lubrication. If the lift pump fails or is unable
to keep
10psi of fuel pressure then your pump is susceptible to damage,
overheating and
failure.
Often if your VP44 failed the
root cause is a bad or failing lift pump. The stock pump does not
supply
sufficient pressure for stock power. It is mounted to the engine block
and has
to push through some small fittings and lines that act as a restriction,
even
worse the pump has to pull fuel all the way from the tank and electric
pumps are
designed to PUSH not PULL fuel. The in tank pump recommended by Dodge
dealers
is not really any better it may flow a slightly higher volume but at
pressures
even lower than the stock pump. It is placed inside the fuel tank to
keep it
cool and reduce failures, but when it fails you are out another $500 for
the
dealer to drop your tank and replace the pump again.
Defective VP44 Codes:
The retrieval of codes does not constitute an
engine diagnosis.
However, there are some codes that usually indicate a defective
injection pump.
A current P1688 always means that
the pump is bad, there is no further diagnosis
required. Code P0216 is probably the most common code for VP44 Pumps. If
transfer pump pressure has been checked and is O.K., the injection pump
is
defective. Other codes that are less common are P0180, P0181, P0215,
P0251,
P0252, P0253, P0254, P0370, P1287, P1689 and P1690. These
codes USUALLY, but not
always indicate a defective pump. There are wiring and power checks to
be
performed if these codes are present. These codes relate to Dodge
pickups only,
and are not for any other ISB application.

The High output VP44 for HO 245HP 6spd dodge motors Will actually
produce LESS HP if you have an SO or 027 pump. The HO pump is designed
for higher pressure and lower volume. You can support about 500HP with
this pump with larger injectors and a performance box.
