Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Timing needed in PA

[Hummin Cummins]

Looking for someone in the central PA area that would want to check and set my pump timing for me? I dont care if I have to drive a few hours and I dont care if your a diesel shop or a DIY'r with the tools. I would like to get it checked and probably advanced. Will pay cash or beer... . LOL :-laf I just cant find a shop locally that works on the B's that I trust. PM me if you can help me out. I've been putting this off way too long.



Thanks



Chris

I agree, East Coast does good work and they are close. Just recently made changes to my truck and WOW.

I got my timing done by S&M diesel. I'm in harrisburg and it takes me about 1 hour to get there going north up route 15.

Best thing is the price, they are $52 an hour flat rate. Took the guy 45 minutes to do my timing so I paid $36 to have it done! He probably could have done it in 30 minutes but I was chatting with him a lot.

Thanks guys, that gives me a good place to start. Looks like S&M is gonna be the closest, not to mention reasonable. The International shop in Lewistown wanted $150 to do it. I thought that was rediculous.

Chris,



I just went to Carson Stauffer which is also S&M. Nice to deal with. I met him and another TDR member at the Huntingdon County Fair Pull last Saturday. I wanted to bump my timing a bit for the higher rpms, but they seemed to think I was running out of fuel. Turns out I had 10psi of fuel. Replaced the overflow valve and back to 25-30 psi plus we still did some timing. They like their powerstrokes, but have done a fair number of cummins conversions and other things. Lots of knowledge and good prices. Phone number is 570-539-2241. They will be coming to the Grange pull this Friday the 25th. Send me a pm if you want more info.

I need the same type of stuff done as well. Can anyone recommend some shops closer to Pittsburgh?

Check out www.pittsburghpower.net, it's the site for Diesel Injection of Pittsburgh. It's on old 28 in Cheswick, just north of the turnpike, almost in to Springdale.

Thanks BigEasy, have you used them before?

I haven't personally... YET. The only thing keeping me away is the 2 and a half hour drive. I stopped in for some advice before buying my truck and when I had my Peterbilt. The owner is a mutual friend...



I've never heard a negative comment about the shop. Bruce, the owner is in very tight with Mark Chapple, retired Cummins engineer and owner of TST. Pittsburgh Power is basically a TST PMCR for the big rigs.

I used Diesel inj. 2yrs ago for my timing and a valve job. Was an ok price, i think like 225 with all new valve cover gaskets. #6 started leakin a year ago tho, I havent had a chance to fix it or get back there, they said they`d fix it. Otherwise, good service and a good shop.



dunno about pricing now tho. .



Where abouts are you CGomulka
