Introductions

Check out the forum regularly, active on Competition Diesel, Cummins Forum, and Diesel Bombers. I figured it was about time to meet even more people I am a college student with 2 semesters left for a certification in Residential Wiring, but changing after that to get an Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering degree. Currently leaning towards mechanical. I am 19 years old, grew up and raised on a farm since birth. Decided I wanted a cummins and nothing else after our old farm truck hit over 750k miles before having engine problems. Saved up money from 12 years old until the day I graduated, then started searching for the perfect truck, which I fo…

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and this is the first Diesel pick-up I've owned. Spent a lot of time with the big Cummins' back in the day, so the Cummins/Dodge was the only choice when I decided go diesel .. I've been reading lots of info on here and just found my way down to the intro section!

how you all,i join the community now and i want to seek knowledge from here,hope so i have good friends from here and take lots of appriciation from all,

Hey guys, my names Tristan and Im from central PA! My current project is a 1993 Cummins 12v 5.9 motor that me and my brother are in the process of rebuilding, which I have planned to go into my 01 Ram 1500. So yes, Im taking on the long, frustrating, confusing and expensive engine swap from gas to diesel. Ive been planning on doing this for a couple years now, and ive finally been able to have the time and finances to do so. So, with that being said Im glad to be a new member and I appreciate any help, tips or support in helping my vision come true!

Good afternoon to the community. My handle is Robby, my real name is Johnny. I am a lifelong (will be 72 in June) Texan. I am an amateur radio operator. I own and ride motorcycles, a Honda Gold Wing and a Harley Ultra Classic. I worked for the post office for 22 years and quit before I went postal. My kids were grown so I pursued the job I always wanted and became a mechanic. The chance to buy an existing garage came along and I went into business for myself. I ran the garage for 21 years and retired at age 63. I have basic mechanic knowledge of most auto systems. I have limited experience in diesel systems. I have been visiting here for a while and decided to join and b…

I just registered today. I've been on CompD and all the other Dodge/Cummins forums for the last 12 years. I've got 4 2nd gen 12 valves and a 06 that I drag race. I've been doing the quick diesel class since it started in 06. I've enjoyed all the info on 12 valves on this site for quite a while now. I figured it was time to join the party. I'm old but not slow nor scared. LOLJim

Stumbled accross this forum looking for service manuals. It lloks like a great place for a real newbie to diesels to get a lot of helpful information. And I have a lot to learn. After only having the truck for a week and putting 200 miles on it I have already had the #4 injector line break and lost 15 gallons of diesel on the interstate south of Dallas and had 2 tow truck bills and a bill from the dealership to install the new line. I have got to get up to speed on this engine so I can take care of it myself like I use to on the gas engine trucks.Hopefully I will get to the point that I can contribute something of value someday.Scott

Hello, forum members I'm kind of new to the 24 valve Cummins. I've been in a 12 valve the last 8 years. I bought this 24 from a friend, and it seems like I've been spending money like a drunk sailor on shore leave. It seems my friend, who is a heavy diesel mechanic by trade, didn't spend a lot of time maintaining his own truck. I've got it driving pretty good, now I may do some small performance upgrades. Looking forward to sharing some information on this forum. Thanks, WB

Howdy all, I've had my first Cummins, and diesel for that matter, for a few months now. Trying to learn as much as I can about these beasts. Found some of the best info on this forum so I decided to join. I've thrown a Mitusa pump and gauges on first thing. I hope to take advantage of all the knowledge and get all the other bugs worked out.

New from Indiana, I have read several of the mopar1973man write ups over the years, and found the forum after searching for hard start issues on my 98 24v a few weeks back.

Hey everyone. I'm new to the site, but I've been on a few other forums. I'm 21 and I've owned my Cummins for 5 years now. You can see everything I've done to it in my signature along with my other projects. I'm in my 3rd year of a 4 year Construction Management degree, then after that I'll eventually take over my family's excavating company where I'm a heavy equipment operator when I'm not at school.

Hello everyone Newb here. I have a 2004.5 Ram 2500 w/ Cummins Power.This is the 3rd Cummins Ram I have had the pleasure of owning.I have been a gearhead for a while and live in the Mid-South.

Hello everyone. I am new to this forum but have been a member of Cumminsforum for quite a while. I am an active duty Navy Chief of over 15 years. Currently Stationed in Lemoore, CA but my family is in Northern Nevada(Fallon) so I travel back and forth when I am not deployed. Looking forward to learning and contributing.

Well, posted a bit on here already but thought I'd come introduce myself. Moved to MT from WA about a year and half ago and found my little Toyota 4x4 wasn't cutting the mustard for things you need a truck for in MT (hauling cords upon cords of firewood, yanking people out of ditches, pulling trailers for equipment, etc.). So, I ended up trading my dad for the truck in my sig with a flatbed car hauler (yes, I'm very aware I came out waaaaay ahead in that deal). It has served me well for the aforementioned tasks, as well as getting me back and forth to work teaching grades 1-8 in a one-room private school. This is my first diesel so I'm still figuring things out here and t…

greetings all, just bought my first diesel, a 99 2500 quad cab, finally got the Cummins i've always wanted :)while not new to wrenching my own rides (i've been running jeeps for a few years now) diesels are a whole new world to me, so i'm here to read, creep, learn and hopefully get to be useful enough to contribute eventually.
