Been done this road myself with GD... If you straight forward and tell them what you think and how you feel I'm sure they will react properly. When the send you the email on how they performed about your trouble ticket just be honest and explain in the ticket. Once again the tech stay after the site for a period of time.

1991 Cummins ISM (350 HP) - Road Speed Governor
No I didn't write it down... As a matter of fact I didn't happen to see the plate on the gear case like the ISB's... Is there another location?

2 Stroke and the Common Rail
Well I'm coming up on 100K of use... Just need 2k miles... So far not a single issue as of yet... VP44 is at 133K and still pumpin' strong... As for the thread over on CF.com it was a monster it was finally closed after like 125 pages worth of thread. I will give credit to Dorkweed for finding the idea... But I guess I was the pack mule that bought it home...

1991 Cummins ISM (350 HP) - Road Speed Governor
Hey Gang... I've got a local guy here in Idaho that owns a semi-truck without trailer that has a issue with the Road Speed Governor. It limits the truck out to about 60 MPH and that's as fast as the truck will go. Does anyone know how to fix this issue on a Cummins ISM? Also the truck is for sale $4,900 bucks, fresh rubber and looks good... It's a old Food Service of America truck.

DTC Troubleshooting Once Again...
The only this about that article I don't agree with... I still recommend that you hold to the factory values... Strange part is that Bosch will not warranty a pump with diaphragm damage. And even BC admits... http://www.bluechipdiesel.com/fassinfo.html This is the only problem I got with BC articles is the fact he's touted the 5 PSI for racing reasons that even excepted that as a base minimum values. Pump failures sored... But if you read carefully all of BC testing work is for the performance market. There is no solid testing in longevity of the VP44. So all I can say is becareful how you read his articles. Like the statement above there is nothing stated on that page of how long the VP44 would last... Like to agree with his statement above... This will keep the overflow OPEN this WILL increase fuel flow through the VP44 and maximize the cooling a lubing effects of the fuel. Since the overflow valve opens at 14 PSI I've been using this a "Suggested Low Pressure". The thing is we are looking to get the most life from our VP44 not HP/TQ.

ASD (Automatic Shut Down) Relay in is in the PDC (Power Distribution Center) under the hood. I would check and see if the relay is lose or corroded up..

DTC troubleshooting
Comments in blue... The only thing left is to go to a dealer and let them use there $6000 DRBIII tool and tell you if the speed sensors are working (or not) and the ABS computer is working (or not). But I'm going to say there is a mis-match in sensors yet. Because if the ABS computer was actually out the speedometer would be dead... Speed sensor -> ABS computer -> CCD Network -> Instrument panel -> Speedometer Also remember the ABS/BRAKE light will not reset till the vehicle is moving.

Airdog question
20 PSI is the undocumented high limit.

Airdog question
There is a second spring included that jacks it up to 17-19 PSI... Or like I did I used a shim washer on the spring and adjsted it to 17 PSI... As a matter of fact it time to do some maintenance on my AD150...

O2 sensor
Yea I agree it would be fun to play with EFI Live on a 24V engine... But I think your right we are the red headed step child of the family of Cummins.. I hate to say it but there is no comparing gas engine to diesel to totally different worlds...

Sometimes all it need is a bit of TLC and the truck behaves much better...

No power to OBD II port!
Check the IOD (Ignition Off Draw) fuse its the one in the cab fuse panel with the funky clip over it.
