It has been almost a year that my truck has been sitting in the driveway collecting dust. I was talking with a buddy the other night when he mentioned I may need to "turn" my injector pump before I try and start it. Something about drying out?? It has been sitting because I had to replace the...

Thanks for helping me put two and two together, not sure how I missed that. I ended up getting one off ebay at Wagner Diesel for 465 shipped with the tach relocation bracket. Talk about fast shipping I ordered it on Monday at lunch and it was here the next morning. Considering he is in Mt...

Does Rip have a website? Forrest, You wouldn't happen to be the same Forrest Nearing that used to go by Stinkin Lincoln at the corral would you?

Who is "these guys?" It is a 12v so thanks for the tip.

Anyone have any recommendations on where to buy one? It seems everyone I see advertises the same price. Does anyone offer a TDR discount?

Anyone have a link to pics of this extension?

Sounds like fun. Any tips on dealing with #5 & #6?

Called Cummins dealer, seemed pretty helpful. Knew exactly what I was looking for/wanting with the valve springs. When I asked how much the job specific tool was for pulling the gear in the truck, he spent a good 5 minutes hunting down a price and asking a tech for advice. Unfortunately they...

Any recommendations where to a get 60lb springs? Should I just go down to Cummins? I figure if I'm that far in there anyway I might as well do those too. I was doing it this way because it is apparently what Cummins does.

Why would I wish I had done it? It would also mean I have to readjust the valves and deal with trying to work under the part of the firewall that covers the back of the engine. From what I understand pulling the cam adds about 6 hours extra work to the job. Unless I get some new springs... which...

because it is extra work.

I looked at snap-ons website. They have a multitude of pullers ranging from a couple hundred bucks to thousands. I was hoping someone that had done the job would be able to recommend a specific one so I don't end up pissin into the wind. :)

Hi I have been getting my butt kicked by the kdp problem. I have it down to just needing to get the cam gear seperated from the cam. I am not pulling the cam if I can help it at all. Problem is I am having trouble finding a sufficient puller to seperate them. I have read that snap-on offers some...

For that kind of dough you should be able to find one without the salvage title. I'm thinking 5k would be the absolute max.

I think he is talking about an automatic. Put it on craigslist, there's bound to be somebody out there with a blown transmission looking to pick one up. Maybe even call around to the local transmission shops, if they are running low on cores for that model you might be able to sell it to them or barter...
