Thanks TC. There is no gasket on the limiter valve. And no torque value that I could find anywhere. TC said that a common problem was cracking of the rail, so I did a dye pen inspection and it was good. Cleaned up both machined faces and installed valve with 90 in lb of torque. It test drove...

I'm really having a hard time finding a small part. My fuel pressure high limit valve leaks around the threads in the rail. There is no washer or gasket on it. I searched the net and talked with a shop and they called Bosch and no joy. The question is what is used as a gasket for the valve, o...

You just said it yourself, the track record isn't that great on remans. Looking at the cost of engine repair/replacement from injector problems with the CR there is no way I would shortcut cost for a reman. Everything else around the injector is just iron, the injector is the heart pulse of your...

Go to Dynomite Diesel in Monroe.

My pistons are in the block so I was looking to see if there was somone that could measure one and post it. Or knew the diemensions or where to find them.

Yes there are 3 bore dimensions, 3 honing limits and skirt wear limits. And for pistons there are standard, 0. 50mm over and 1. 00 mm over. So the 2nd and 3rd pistons are 0. 50 and 1. 00 over what? There has to be a nominal size on a new piston to start with. Mahle has to manufacture a standard...

The 5. 9 block has standard bore, 1st bore at 0. 50 mm and then 2nd bore at 1. 00 mm. And the honing limits are listed for each. And of course the pistons come in standard, 0. 50 mm over and 1. 00 mm over. All the diameters are listed everywhere except for the diameter of the standard piston...

So the cam change alone could cause some issues?

It has the right Mahle pistons. Blackwater said to drive it. work it, give it more miles and monitor the dip stick thingamajig. I'm going to put it on the computer and check out the ECM. Anything particular to do or look for on the ECM while it's hooked up. Has there been much of a problem...

Hey, that's a great tip. I'll know the piston type today. So the 03-4. 5 have a different injection duration than the 4. 5-07's? The later is doing 3 injections per power stroke I believe.

I understand the pistons and injectors both changed in 2004. 5 when it went to the 325/600. So what if it had the pre 4. 5 pistons with the 505 injectors? The longblock came from Blackwater Engines in Norfolk. But I'm not pointing any fingers yet until I figure this out. It does have a 3 yr/75k...

More to the saga. It's an 05 3500, NV5600. I have 1500 miles on the new engine during the last 7 weeks that I have been troubleshooting this. Oil flow to and out of the turbine has been checked. I did shoot the manifold with the heat gun looking for a hot cyl. They all read about 195 near the...

I'm getting stumped on this one and need some help. First I'm looking for a good Cummins shop in Puget Sound, not really interested in the Dealers. At 166k I lost my engine to a washed cylinder. Put in a rebuilt long block with ARP studs and a Hamilton cam. The 6 stock 505 injectors were new...
