12 Valve 2nd Gen Dodge Cummins 94-98 Discussion of 12 Valve 5.9 Liter Dodge Cummins Diesels with P7100 Injection Pumps

My 94 Dodge seems to be loosing power. Sure seems like it used to run harder and faster than it does now. What is the normal 0-60 time? All stock, automatic trans. Mine is about 15.3 seconds! 0-40 comes pretty quick, then ramps much slower. ... JOIN NOW TO REMOVE TRACER

Default low on power?

My 94 Dodge seems to be loosing power. Sure seems like it used to run harder and faster than it does now. What is the normal 0-60 time? All stock, automatic trans. Mine is about 15.3 seconds! 0-40 comes pretty quick, then ramps much slower. I ran it to a little over 90 and it didn't seem like it was going to do much more.

My turbo is also very noisey under acceleration - has been for years. Doesn't whistle like it should - more of a howl. (no leaks) Turbo does change pitch with engine speed and I can hear it spin down when I shut down the engine (No muffler).

Starts and idles perfect w/ 253k miles, mileage good 16-21 depending on highway %. All stock - never been touched. No aftermarket gauges so I don't have exhaust temps or boost pressure. Only mod is the straight pipe.

Default fuel filter

I've got one I've had for God knows how long - still in the box and shrink-wrapped. Will change it out this weekend. I change the oil very regularly (5k), and air filter every now and then, otherwise just drive the heck out of it. I forget it needs anything else!

After a while the mechanical stuff just wears. After you get the fuel system up to snuff, a quick valve set and timing adjustment will make it feel like a new engine. Also the throttle cable and linkage on the pump wear and don't allow full throttle motion. That could be as easy as a few links and sockets from the local Cummins vendor..
