Fuel System

Your fuel system is vital to your car’s operation. Taking care of your fuel system can help extend the life of the various parts, but eventually, they will need replacing. The fuel filter may need to be replaced relatively regularly. Cheaper filters could need replacement in as little as 20,000 miles. Therefore it’s important to choose the best fuel filter for the 6.4 Powerstroke. 6.4 Powerstroke injectors last a little longer, and you will only need to consider a replacement every 50,000 to 100,000 miles.

If your Ford 6.4 injectors develop an issue, your truck’s performance will be impacted massively, so make sure they’re professionally checked at regular intervals. Your fuel system is pressurized by a 6.4 Powerstroke fuel pump, and a 6.4 Powerstroke injection pump forces vaporized fuel into your engine’s cylinders. A 6.4 Powerstroke fuel pressure regulator makes sure the fuel is coming through at the correct rate.

If the 6.4 fuel pressure regulator isn’t functioning properly, the fuel may not have the pressure it needs to reach the injectors. Older engines wouldn’t necessarily be fitted with a 6.4 injection pump, but the 6.4 liter Powerstroke diesel engines many Ford trucks use do. An injection pump is necessary for a direct injection system, which allows for greater control and efficiency.
