So going to change filter and pickup since I'm in there should I just change pump and regulated also ,

1 what is a good kit to buy or pump
2 how about the HPI 62 psi regulator
3 how about the trask billet regulated housing

Just wondering what's a good way to go ,
116" 11.5 comp , hpi throttle , 6.2 gms injectors

How old is the current pump and regulator?

I replaced with fuel pump factory kit on a '07 softail last year after the ear on regulator busted giving me a rough 3 mile ride home. After 33k I figured to just replace it all with a kit
currently 510ci on tap

125k on my OEM 20 year old fuel pump. Changed filter and regulator at about 60k. Replacing all real soon this time. However all still work. Just losing trust
Don't let it sit empty for long periods of time

Trask regulator housing is a nice piece, have used lots of them. Don't think I would replace the pump just because, unless you have a LOT of miles.

What qualifies as a lot of miles?  :scoot:

80k to 100k would be a good time to replace the pump.

Can't see how it matters to a fuel filter.
