FASS/ISSPRO Install Observations

[DaveHess]

I finished my install of my FASS 95/95 on Saturday. That install went very smooth until I kept getting a persistant fuel leak from the CP3 where the fuel enters it. I initially torqued the fitting into the CP3 (18 ft-lbs) as per directions. I did the same for the hose fitting. The problem was the original line I had removed continued to leak fuel from it. The only way to get that to stop was to drain the OEM filter housing. I'm sure there are a bunch of you out there saying, "Duh.....". It would have been nice to find that addressed in the directions.
The Isspro fuel and rail gauges are nice. The orange connectors that you assemble for the back of the gauges suck. The LED lights in the rail gauge when the lights are turned on pulses. It stops pulsing when I turn the dimmer to its highest setting. I like to run my dash a little lower than the highest setting. I was able to turn the lights down one click and keep the rail gauge from pulsing. Don't understand that when I daisy chained the fuel pressure to the rail gauge and the LED lights in the fuel pressure gauge worked as advertised. The gauge install took me longer than the FASS install. It does look good but Man, what a job.

Forgot about the Smarty Jr! That thing is amazing. I pulled my VA C3.1 and drove the truck for about 20 minutes. Then installed the Performance setting and OMG! Drove at 100 HP setting then reloaded the Towing as that is what this truck does. That setting feels very like the VA C3.1. I'll be towing this weekend so we'll see if there is a difference to me.

Still no smoke though I was hoping for a little.
