  1. Thanks for everyones help, unfortunately, we all had it wrong. It wound up being the injection pump!!! 1400.00 bucks later and it's purring like a cummins.
  2. Yes, it was sorry, 1596. The pump pressuse is sitting in the garage not whi
  3. Nope, your right it was a typo, the code is a 1596.
  4. Nope no type, and the fuel pressure is in neutral in the garage.
  5. I need some help. I run a 2001 3500 2w drive dually 5 sp pulling a 40 gn trailer. Starting friday afternoon, my truck would get sudden power loses, usually in 5th gear. It will surge several times then resume operating normally. I might drive several hundred miles then out of the blue it will start surging again. I depress the clutch to see if it dies but it just goes to idle. When it's running right there is no problem, no lose of power and no misses. This is what I have done to it since march, I've put in a new lift pump, we have some wiring issues to the lift pump which was corrected and the block pump is completely out of the picture. The lift pump is an in tank model. I checked the lift pump on Saturday and it's putting out 15psi at idle and 13psi at 2000rpm. The only code I get is a 1593 but when I put my odbII reader on it it shows no codes. I have replaced the TPS couple of months ago, I got new bosch 40 horse injectors with new fuel tubes. I would say that there may be a short in the electrical to the pump but it would die when I clutched it but it doesn't just goes to idle with no misses, normal rpm. I am wondering if the lift pump is going bad and is slowing down causing the pressure to drop, the engine can idle on lower fuel pressure but not run higher. I'm at a lose, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
  6. Can you get a G56 tranny to fit into an 01 3500? If so, how labor intensive & expensive is it?
  7. I will get down to autozone and see what they got, thanks - - - Updated - - - I invested in a mid range OBDII and got a P0341 error, camshaft sensor. Going to replace that puppy tomorrow and get that dawg back on the road. The bucks ain't flowin if the wheels ain't rollin!!!
  8. I need some help with a problem I am having. My check engine light has come on on my 01 3500, when I checked the oddy the error codes showed P1596 and 1693. I use the truck as a hotshot and pull some pretty good loads with the truck. I also noticed that my tach would go off and on, when it went off and zeroed out I lost 30%+ in power. As soon as my tach started working, power resumed to normal. I had a buddy of mine run his diagnostic tool on it, btw he's a retired diesel mech, and his equipment show "eng mod" but no error codes. Finally, I did take Michael advise and ran the oddy past the error codes to P-done. It went straight to mileage and showed no more codes. At this point I am pretty much at a lose, only thing I know to do is take it to dodge (cough). Perhaps there equipment will pin point the problem.
