Quadzilla erratic fuel pressure readings...

Own a Quadzilla QZ and have started experiencing erratic Fuel pressure readings on a 03 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins. The Readings jump erratically between 0 and 8 psi. I'm thinking this isn't normal and the digital meter should show fairly steady pressure readings.... Thoughts anyone?

Call Quads customer service line. I think from prior reading that they ahve been having some problems with the sensors or something like that. Like I said call to get what's going on and see if you are still under warranty for the repair.

I got a replacement sender about a year ago and that's the one now acting up. I've read about the "new" replacement one being available at the end of the month. Let's hope so!

Are there any links where I can read up on the replacement Quadzilla sender?

Anyone know if Quadzilla's charging the customer for replacing the original defect?

IIRC, they charged me 25$ until I sent the old one back. They knew they had issues, and said they would extend the warranty once they had a "good" replacement.
