Airdog II-5G 165 GPH Air Fuel Separation Lift Pump 98.5-04.5 Dodge 5.9L Cummins W/In-Tank PumpThe 98. 5 02 2nd Gen Cummins got a pretty bad rap over the years for failed VP44 injection pumps, many claiming it was one of the worst decisions ever made to mate this supposed failure prone pump on a Cummins powered Ram.

The 98.5-02 2nd Gen Cummins got a pretty bad rap over the years for failed VP44 injection pumps, many claiming it was one of the worst decisions ever made to mate this supposed failure prone pump on a Cummins powered Ram. Now, was it really the VP44's fault, or was the engine bay mounted lift pump really the culprit? In most cases, the failure of the low output lift pump causes the demise of the injection pump. And to make matters worse, they continued to use a similar lift pump placement all the way through the 2004.5 model years before going to a higher output in-tank lift pump. So how do you really fix one of these trucks for good? Easy, ditch the in tank stock lift pump and upgrade to an AirDog!
The AirDog II-5G is an all in one premium fuel pump and filtration system for your 1998.5-2004.5 Cummins diesel. This system removes water, particulates, and entrained air from the diesel fuel. The entrained air that is separated from the fuel is returned to the tank through a small return fitting. The fuel is delivered to the engine at the correct pressure and flow rate to meet the demands of the engine under all operating conditions.
The AirDogII-5G DF-165 systems feature a built in adjustable diaphragm pressure regulator. All AirDog II-5G systems include a complete installation kit. The AirDog II-5G, for this particular application, is preset at 17 psi from the factory for a stock application. The regulator is adjustable up to 55 PSI so you can fine tune the system to perfectly match up to your current and future performance upgrades.
HOW IT WORKS:
The AirDog II-5G DF-165 draws fuel from the fuel tank through a 1/2” suction line to reduce the risk of cavitation at the pump. The fuel is then drawn through the water separator where 92% of water is removed per SAE spec 1488. It is then pressurized through a Gearotor pump and sent to the 2 micron fuel filter before it is sent to the injection pump. The air from aerated fuel, due to tank sloshing and engine return lines, is separated and sent back to the tank through the 3/8” return fitting. The excess fuel that the engine does not use is recirculated through the diaphragm regulator back to the suction side of the pump.IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING IN-TANK FUEL PUMP:
This specific AirDog unit is designed for trucks featuring the in-tank
lift pump. For those unaware, all of the 1998.5-2004.5 Cummins powered
Rams came from the factory with a block mounted lift pump. However, if
it ever failed and had it replaced previously, it very likely was
retrofitted to the newer design that actually placed the pump in the
fuel tank. If you're not sure where your pump is located, simply "bump"
the key, which will engage the pump, then listen whether the hum from
the pump is coming from the engine compartment or the fuel tank.

Cute but not durable
Color: Life's A Paw-Ty, Size: 4.75" H X 5.25" W X 2" D
Beautiful toy and super fun squeaker, my dog loved it so much, unfortunately, it didn't even last 30 minutes! My dog is not an aggressive chewer but the material is very fragile and she made a whole right away.

Not as advertised
Color: Life's A Paw-Ty, Size: 4.75" H X 5.25" W X 2" D
Purchased this product under the description for tough chewer. Description even showed a husky in which I have 2. Needless to say, the toy literally lasted 2 minutes before it was destroyed and was full of a fiberglass fiber. Would not recommend this toy if you have a larger dog with a stronger bite force.

My Dog's All-Time Favorite Toy
Color: Pink, Style: Grunt Sound
The first one of these I ever got her was at Petco on sale for $1 - best $1 ever!
The reviews are right, though. The toy doesn't last forever and it's not good for aggressive chewers. In my opinion, however, that doesn't make it a bad toy. Here's why:
Aggressive chewers comments: Getting my sister's French Bulldog a stuffed toy (that's shredded in 5 minutes), compared to my Pitbull who does not tear up any toys, but is a stronger chewer when it comes to bones. My pup does not tear this up at all, but my sister's dog would. My point is: Don't get your dog a soft toy if your dog ruins soft toys.
Regarding the not long-lasting comments: the honking noise mechanism inside eventually pops inside the hole, rendering it honkless. Ours lasted about 6 months. It's pretty much impossible to fix unless you want to trouble yourself to fix it for 1 good honk each fix. I would, but I do also have a job to get to. My dog does still carry it around in it's noiseless state, but she doesn't play with it with the same enthusiasm.
How did I resolve this? I bought her 5 😂 She's only on her second, but I decided to stock it because they were on sale for $5.10 - I don't think I will get rid of any of them. I will just let her play with them on rotation until they fall apart.
Besides all that, my dog just simply loves this toy. I have never seen her so happy & playful with a toy. I can't promise this for your dog, as I can only tell you about mine.
We even have a "Sheepy" song.
[I have not been paid or given free Sheeps - my Sweet Pea just really loves her Sheepy]

Loud! Just Like She Likes It
Color: Hedgehog, Style: Big Squeak Hedgehog
My Great Dane loves this noisy toy. She prefers squeaky toys with loud, unusual squeakers. (I need to invest in earplugs.) She's not an agressuve chewer or rough player so this should last a long time. Like most squeaky toys she has, the squeaker wears out before the physical toy does and once the noise is gone she won't play with it any more. If others have a similar issue...check with your local animal shelter. Some (not all) will disinfect used toys for the dogs in their care.
