PPE Release Valve Shim Kit
2008–2009 Dodge Ram
113072000
Overview:
The PPE Release Valve Shim Kit is a precision-engineered upgrade designed specifically for the 2008–2009 Dodge Ram fuel system. It increases the pressure threshold required to activate the pressure relief valve (PRV), ensuring that fuel rail pressure remains elevated as demanded by the engine computer during full-throttle operation. This enhancement is particularly beneficial for trucks experiencing weakened fuel return springs due to age or wear, which can cause premature valve activation and reduced fuel rail pressure.
By maintaining higher fuel rail pressure, the shim kit helps eliminate common diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) such as P1093 and P0087, which indicate low fuel rail pressure during power enrichment. This product is ideal for Dodge Ram owners seeking to optimize fuel delivery reliability and engine performance under demanding driving conditions.
Key Features:
The PPE Release Valve Shim Kit offers a straightforward yet effective solution to fuel pressure management issues. Key features include:
- Increases the pressure required to open the pressure relief valve, maintaining optimal fuel rail pressure.
- Reduces excessive fuel flow through the return system caused by weakened factory springs.
- Helps prevent low fuel rail pressure DTC codes P1093 and P0087 related to insufficient PRV spring pressure.
- Recommended installation of two shims for optimal performance and pressure control.
- Precision-manufactured for a perfect fit on 2008–2009 Dodge Ram models.
- Durable materials designed to withstand high fuel system pressures and temperatures.
- Simple installation with no permanent modifications required.
- Improves fuel system consistency during full-throttle and power enrichment conditions.
Construction & Design:
The Release Valve Shim Kit is crafted from high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials engineered to endure the harsh environment of the fuel system. Each shim is precisely manufactured to exact thickness specifications, ensuring consistent and reliable pressure adjustment without compromising the integrity of the pressure relief valve assembly. The design focuses on durability and longevity, providing a stable solution that maintains fuel rail pressure over time despite spring fatigue or wear.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation of the PPE Release Valve Shim Kit is straightforward and requires no permanent modifications to the fuel system. It is designed to fit directly onto the pressure relief valve assembly of 2008–2009 Dodge Ram trucks. For best results, PPE recommends installing two shims to achieve the desired increase in spring pressure. This kit is ideal for professional installers or knowledgeable enthusiasts comfortable with basic fuel system service procedures.
What's Included:
- Two precision-engineered release valve shims
- Installation instructions
Ideal For:
This shim kit is perfect for Dodge Ram owners who experience low fuel rail pressure issues, especially those who frequently operate their trucks at full throttle or under heavy load conditions. It is also an excellent upgrade for vehicles with aging fuel system components where the original pressure relief valve spring has weakened, causing inconsistent fuel delivery and triggering low-pressure fault codes.
Pacific Performance Engineering (PPE) develops heavy-duty and performance upgrades for trucks and diesel platforms, including differential covers, transmission pans, oiling and cooling components, and other durability-minded parts. PPE products are built to handle heat, load, and power—ideal for tow rigs and performance builds that need stronger hardware and better fluid control.
What does the Available to Promise date mean?
ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
