Cummins newb from Wi
Yes... Why else would you be hanging around here... Like Dripley here he's great guy to talk to on the phone. You can talk shop and then BS for another hour easy. But Mopar1973Man Web Site is mostly about the "Common Joe" person that want to just keep his truck running. Don't care about HP/TQ and racing it all about making from A to B and back to A everyday without failures...

Truck died w/ fuel psi & no codes!
I tend to look at the warranty coverage of the pump. I look to see who has the best warranty coverage (time and mileage). Then looking deeper I look at see if they have to inspect the pump before coverage or do they just send a new pump? If a shop has to inspect the pump first before replacement 99% of the time will void warranty because they found rust, sand, broken parts, etc. So I'm more interrested in the warranty than what they change or don't change. Because if you do have a problem and they void the warranty you thousand dollars more broke again... :smart:Secret... All VP44 have to be place on a calibration machine which is over $600,000.00... Each and every VP44 must be calibrated and timed before released for sale. So I know that all pumps have been bench tested to some degree before going back out the door. :smart:Another secret... I know there is very few of these calibration machines in the US. So not everyone got one... The ones that don't have a test bench has to send pumps out to other companies to have them bench calibrated. A way of weed out the truth is asking if the calibrate the pump on site or do they ship them off.

Front Drive shaft Question on 4x4
From what I can remember of doing mine long ago is the Double Cardan joint has a spring in the middle so don't forget that. Make sure to grease that center joint too.

Fuel Pressure
Did you set the fuel type to Gas? or Diesel? Did you Set the displacement to match you other vehicle? Did you set the fillup Offset for this vehicle? Like mine is 24% offset and Mom's 96 Gasser is a 233% offset. Did you set the tank size?
-
boost leak but where
Not really going to be able to check valves and seats with this... Because only one cylinder maybe open for air pressure. As for pressure I only used 5-6 PSI because the clamp wasn't strong enough.
-
Oil pressure
Well don't believe the oil pressure gauge (Stock)... But I did buy me a cheap plumbing pressure gauge and a tee and check mine at idle and was seeing 60 PSI. Even though the stock gauge shows below 40 PSI at idle.
