True Jake Coming Soon for the Cummins
that unit attached to the injection pump gear seems to be a timed hydraulic or pneumatic actuator that pushes the exhaust valve down at the right time and triggered by a switch, it activates on the next piston that is just coming down past TDC on power stroke which releases the compressed air from cylinder. at same time fuel should be cut off when the power to the unit is applied. this is my theory of how the unit works.

Help request...
if the oil is leaking on the intake side. it will get sucked into the engine causing runaway. exhaust side oil seal will just keep blowing more and more white/blue smoke.

Thermostats
duramax, 8 pistons with more surface areas to waterjacket=less warm up time cummins, 6 pistons less surface area to the waterjacket= more warm up time. try plugging in the block heater couple hours before u depart, warm up will be less than 10 min

Colorado, Northwest or Southwest?
actually there is a great guy in greeley, he goes by the name of "laser bob" (970) 356-6444 he works mostly on dodge cummins and most cummins small engines. he is a good guy to talk to and seems to know his stuff. i got my injector tube orings from him. he does transmissions as well

Missing at idle. Been to 3 shops $4800 later...still no fix
this makes since if im understanding it right, if the cam and gear walked forward and being the gears are helical cut, it would throw the cam off time by a little bit that would make the idle rough.

Head gasket
i wasnt sure if it was bars leaks but there is something that isnt meant for permanent fix as it will wear the veins of the water pump down or something like that
-
Head gasket
i heard bars leaks will tear up a water pump if left in there and not flushed? that is if the problem is never repaired.
