I have a 2003 Dodge with cummins. It has 130K miles. Last couple of days when I start off especially on a hill it feels real sluggish it will eventually go but I would compare it to taking off in third gear in a stick shift. Once get just a little speed everything is fine. No sputtering all else great. Any ideas are much appreciated.

Common Problem, degrease entire area (prepare not to drive trck of at least 15 hours) Get some brake clean and RTV Silicone sealant. Take only three bolts out at a time. Clean bolts and threads with cleaner. When dry put RTV on bolt threads and flange. Tighten to factory specs. Let dry overnight. Oil escapes past the treads on the oil pan bolts.

My friend let his truck roll into a boat ramp with the engine running. He has cleaned out the water and changed the oil and filter. He can pull the truck and the engine will crank and run at idle. If you try to increase rpm it dies.It has fuel to the injection pump but very little to injectors. Any suggestions.

Engine shutdown while driving by phrenovate

My 2002 dodge diesel will shutdown while at highway speed, as I pull to the side of the road and slow to about 25mph it restarts. Then the check engine light comes on. The trouble codes are low voltage, fuel delivery and two others i can not remember. I have 296000 miles on the truck and otherwise it still runs great. The truck has done this 3x's in two weeks. I drive 200mi/day to and from work. Any thoughts or experiences with this?

Hi, i'm responding on behalf of my dad--he's been driving a diesel for 19 years.
 
Be sure to check fuel emergency shutdown solenoids and sensors. he thinks that after a while they can go bad on you. he had trouble like that with his truck after he got into an accident, like the damage messed with those components especially.

intermitant jake brake by pete93

I own an 07' 2500 w/the 5.9L & 6 speed manual trans, 88k miles...bought it new-love the truck. This just started the last two weeks, that when the jake brake is on, it cuts in and out by itself. It seems to be worse in 6th. Dealer says its a failing vacuum pump--not covered by cummins warrantee, they want $1100 to replace it. Does this sound right? This is my first cummins, when the jake brake is on it sounds like there is an air leak...always has, is that normal?
