Why Upgrade the Fuel Tank Pickup?
Every fuel system begins at the tank.
No matter how capable your lift pump is, it can only deliver the fuel that reaches its inlet. If the pickup tube is undersized or restricted, the lift pump may have to work harder to pull fuel from the tank, particularly under heavy load or high engine demand.
Increasing the size of the pickup assembly helps reduce inlet restriction and gives the lift pump easier access to fuel. This is especially beneficial on trucks equipped with:
- High-flow lift pumps
- Larger injectors
- Performance tuning
- Heavy towing applications
- Custom fuel systems
- Competition vehicles
A properly sized pickup helps ensure the rest of the fuel system can perform as intended.
Glacier Tech Tip
One of the most overlooked restrictions in a diesel fuel system is the pickup inside the tank.
Many owners focus on lift pumps, filters, and fuel lines while leaving the original pickup assembly untouched. If the pickup becomes the smallest restriction in the system, it can limit how efficiently fuel reaches the lift pump.
When upgrading the fuel system, it's good practice to think of the fuel path as one complete system:
- Tank pickup
- Supply line
- Lift pump
- Fuel filters
- Injection pump
Each component should be sized appropriately to minimize unnecessary restrictions and support consistent fuel delivery.

Common Fuel Supply Problems
Fuel delivery issues don't always originate at the lift pump.
A restricted pickup tube can contribute to:
- Fuel pressure drop under heavy load
- Reduced fuel flow at higher RPM
- Fuel starvation when towing
- Performance loss at wide-open throttle
- Difficulty supporting larger injectors or upgraded fueling systems
By addressing the fuel system at the tank, you're creating a stronger foundation for every component downstream.

- Fuel Boss Mechanical Lift Pump
- Fuel Boss Base Kit
- Fuel Boss Replacement Pump
- Fuel Boss Check Valve
- Fuel Pressure Test Kit
- Fuel Pressure Gauge

A high-performance fuel system is only as good as its ability to supply fuel from the tank. The Glacier Diesel Power 7/16-inch Flexible Pick-Up Tube Assembly removes one of the most common restrictions in the fuel supply path, helping ensure your lift pump receives the fuel it needs for dependable performance on the street, while towing, or under heavy load.
