Lost fuel pressure the other week, primed it and it had a loud rattle from HP pump area and lost prime in a few seconds. I replaced the pump with a new one. Didn’t notice anything wrong with gears or anything. Truck is running good, but can still hear a rattle from that area. It’s not near as loud or consistent but still is noticeable. I used the old spring and top housing, gears, front housing and pully. Did I miss something?

What do you mean, old springs and top housing? Those pumps are replaced as a complete unit. Replacing individual pumping chambers is not recommended as it needs to be properly timed and calibrated internally which is not something a shop does. Also what year of engine are you working on?

On top of the pump. The new pump I ordered did not come with the two black housings on top. I reused the old ones off my pump. I’m assuming that’s an issue and could be the reason of the rattle and me blowing lines on side of pump after a few minutes running? -
If the pump you got did not come with those, return it for your money back, because you got scammed. Those are the pumping chambers. You basically bought an empty housing.

That’s exactly what I wanted to hear lol.. It had the pistons in housing and I just pressed chambers and springs back in. Dern thing runs good though just keeps blowing the clip in hoses off side. Thought I might have had them switched up, but reading this idk ♂️.. I can’t find anyone that’ll touch it with 10 foot pole so trying to do it myself.
