Scavenge pump is used as oil return would back up into turbo under certain conditions. It is fed from turbo directly to pump then into low oil level sensor hole on side of oil pan = low budget.

Ok, initially the owner asked me to tune it for 75lb injectors and wire up some PCM controlled efans. No problem, done.

Then the owner had the truck for less than a week and the (not mine) e*ay harness fried his fuel pump relay and assorted other wires.

The harness was 'modified' by a well known e*ay seller and was wrapped in electrical tape. Needles to say, I will completely remove it and replace it with one of my own harnesses that has soldered and heat shrunk connections. Beware of extremely cheap e*ay sellers who even say 'you get what you pay for'.

Word of advise, get closeup pics of what you plan to purchase and get forum opinions of sellers quality, before this happens to you.
Not all sellers are dirtbads but I have personally seen 3 of this guys harnesses and they are crap. Good thing the truck did not burn to the ground because of his horrible work.
