But I have the same symptoms even with the aftermarket pump. Apparently, the high pressure pumps don't have a relief valve only the early walbro pumps. Well, the AEM doesn't and that's what I have. Cheers

I  think you are confused. The mod they are talking about raises fuel pressure by not bleeding it off. A good aftermarket pump solves this issue.

 

What issues do you have?

Yea filter is clean. Isn't it the same issue though. I want to keep the pressure in the line, if the relief vents it will drop the pressure in fuel line. What do KPM modify in there in tanks.

Are you getting confused with enlarging the return outlet. That needs to be done when you have a high flow pump.

 

What setup do you have? What intank pump? What pot? External surge and pump?

 

What fuel do you run?

Ok I have a good one, removed pump assembly, took out the relief valve, still surging (has AEM E85 340LPH pump but only running 98 atm)... It was starting to be ridiculous so I thought unless my pump has been removed before maybe ford got it wrong. Check return line oh no fuel. Check vent line oh wow some fuel. Check ford diagram fuel pump assembly (below) mine is not like that its different unless its changed for some reason. My return runs back under vent line and continues across. Anyway, hooked it up, NO surge way under a quarter, only has relief valve taken out (standard pot). If you are getting surge I would be checking that line. Mine also drove fine hooked up the wrong way until I got low on fuel 1/4 etc because it was retuning through the tiny vent.

What actually happened was, whoever reconnected the quick connect at the pot connected them wrong, simple mistake, that's why it pays to mark things.

The return runs back under the vent pipe which isn't the correct way according to the manual. The issue was happening with the stock pump before it was removed by me anyway.
