Product Description
FASS STK5500 DIESEL FUEL SUMP KIT WITH BULKHEAD SUCTION TUBE KIT
The FASS STK5500 combines a no-drop fuel sump with a bulkhead suction tube kit so you can pull fuel directly from the sump bowl inside the tank—no external fuel lines. The design lowers the suction point, gathers fuel to a central location, and helps eliminate common “quarter-tank” starvation issues on hard-working Ford, GM, and Dodge/Ram diesel trucks.
Fitment & System Notes
- Applications: Universal use on light-duty diesel tanks (Ford Power Stroke, GM Duramax, Dodge/Ram Cummins), with or without a FASS lift pump.
- Works great with: FASS Titanium Signature Series and Titanium Signature Series PLUS fuel systems for higher-flow builds.
- What it does: Lowers suction location and draws from inside the sump bowl via the bulkhead & convoluted suction tube—no tank drop required.
- Porting: Sump exterior fuel-line port for simple hose routing with FASS systems; bulkhead kit allows suction from inside the tank.

FAQ
Do I have to drop the tank to install STK5500?No. This is a no-drop sump design intended to install without removing the factory fuel tank.
Will this help with “1/4-tank” fuel starvation?
Yes. By lowering the suction point and drawing from the sump bowl, the kit helps prevent typical quarter-tank starvation issues.
Can I use this without a FASS lift pump?
Yes. It’s universal. That said, the kit is designed to integrate cleanly with FASS Titanium Signature systems for higher-demand builds.
Are there external fuel lines hanging under the truck?
No. When plumbed to the bulkhead suction tube, fuel is drawn from inside the tank—no external lines.
