#575 of 642 Cummins fuel pumps by partsman2k Jun 04, 2009 (12:42 pm)
Well I have learned alot about cummins engines and Dodge dealers. Dodge dealers know NOTHING about cummins engines. I had the "DEAD PETAL "issue, took it to a Dodge dealer for diaganoise and was told it was the injector pump. I had a gut feeling so I took it to a 2nd dodge dealer, they again told me it was the injector pump. They both used a "Snap on" code scanner. (wrong tool) I went ahead and installed a new injector pump. $1,150 later the truck was just as weak as it was before. I then talked to a man that owned a diesel shop and works on them for a living, told him my problem and he immedtaly told me what was wrong. I replaced the MAP sensor also known as the (boost sensor) and the truck runs fine. If you have a problem you cant figure out, take it somewhere that they can hook it up to a LAP TOP not a code scanner.

Replying to: 2500beast (Jun 02, 2009 2:39 pm) LOL! It sounds like your injectors were upgraded.... that's a common complaint when someone adds bigger injector nozzles but the only thing I can think of that is wrong is that the guys didn't pop check the injectors. If they pop off at to low of a pressure they won't atomize the fuel correctly and burn the diesel completely... which usually results in a rough idle and smoke!

Replying to: davidlvg (Jun 06, 2009 5:23 pm) thanks but it was done at a dodge dealer and they are factory injectors, but as of today they still have not looked at it. still looking for answers may have to take it some where else

Replying to: nascarcamper (Mar 14, 2009 5:33 pm) Number 1...STAY AWAY from dodge dealers, they no nothing about cummins engines.They are only certified on DODGE engines only. Take it to a diesel engine shop and ask if they can hook it up to a lap-top. It will read engine preformance and any sensors that might be causing the problem. Dude Im sorry you spent unnessary money on rebuilding your tran.
