Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) wan't start

[CharlieEllis]

I'm new at this so I hope you guys will forgive if I make a mistake, I was towing my 5th wheel today and my motor stopped. The fuel shutoff is still turned on, one Injector is blowing fuel, the turbo was 25psi and pyro 1300 when this happened, motor did not indicate over 180-190, however water was coming out of the radiator cap overflow, it seems to have fuel pressure, no gauge, pump is injecting fuel, I was able to start it but only idle for just a few minutes (2). the motor have 90,000 miles on it.

Any thoughts? Oh I was headed to the cummins to get timing and a rack adjustment when this happened!

how long were you at 1300* this may be a vapor lock issue?

 

[CharlieEllis]

want start

maybe about 5 minutes, how would one clear a vapor lock? Should the motor be able to run with one injector leaking?

Hopfully not but get it the rest of the way to Cummins , if its blowing out the cooling system it could be head gasget,

1300F for 5 minutes that's begging for trouble. Anything sustained over 1200F runs the risk of melting a piston.

Any updates Charlie?
