Make sure the key is on top (12 O'Clock) So it don't fall out, you will need a puller to pop the gear loose, there are no timing issues to worry about as the gear can't go anywhere when you pull the pump. Other than that it's pretty easy. If you have any questions just ask.:thumb1:

Thanks guys for the dig on the links... (ISX and W&F) But I'll say this... The Dodge dealer says its 8 hours to replace a VP44... My Mitchell books say 6 hours... But I did my first VP44 on a customers truck in just under 4 hours... Simple to do... My static page is update with a few tricks... http://mopar.mopar1973man.com/cummins/2ndgen24v/vp44-replace/vp44-replace.htm

Hey I see you added my little time and labor saver of only removing thee lines and leaving the other three on the engine to the writeup.:thumb1:

Actually my first Blue Chip pump took 3 hrs. He does not post instructions on line for competitors to use, and the 3 line trick is in his instructions as well. He just sends out a printed replacement guide.

.........and fun..now if we could throw a p7100 in and not a vp and hook up the connections we would have it made!!:lmao::drool::hyper::thumbup2::woot:

* change the gear case (mounting difference of the VP44 to P) * pull the cam (change the cam for one with the fuel pump lobe) * change throttle assemblies (Mechanical linkage) * change the fuel pump (need more pressure) * change the pop pressure on the injectors The buy all the other parts like... * p7100 pump * injection lines Etc... Lots of money...:stuned:
