The old PMD was #34583. The new one is gray and has been working much better for us so far. For some reason though I have people specifically asking for the old black ones. Are these people mistaken by reading old articles or is there some self proclaimed "PMD Wizard" claiming that these are better? I wouldn't put it past a couple of the vendors out there to make such a claim...

If someone has a bunch of the black ones on the shelf then obviously they are superior to anything others may be selling... ;)

Sounds like someone may have some "new old stock" they want to move... Stanadyne should exchange the new old stock modules vendors are sitting on with the newer gray version.... Nah... they wouldn't do that. :rolleyes:

Maybe it's because the New Gray one requires the replacement of the PMD harness, which a lot of people probably don't want to do (more work) have to remove the intake and all.

Just a hunch.

PMD Cable makes a extension harness that adapts to the new gray stanadyne pmd's. Pretty shure he is a site vendor here. He's on vacation now. It should be on his web site

Yeah, extension harnesses exist to use the new PMD. Just saying that to plug and play, the grey PMD isn't gonna work out of the box without a little more work (either adapter cable or isntalling new harness on the pump).

Any chance these people are mistakenly confusing the Flight Systems FSD and just calling the black (FS) ones Stanadyne by mistake?

I just modified my harness connector to make it plug into the gray FSD. Works fine.

As does Kennedy Diesel the originator of the FSD extension harness.

I also put up a Tech Tip with detailed print showing how to "neuter" any harness.

Sorry. I haven't been to your site in a while. I didn't mean to highjack.
