For anyone out there who doesn't want to be stuck on the side of the road, check the clamp on the #4 injector line. Today, I was driving down the road and my truck died. Pulled over, popped the hood, smelled fuel. With a little further investigation, found my #4 injector line in two pieces. The clamp was laying underneath it. I got really lucky and a passerby stopped to see if I needed a hand. He had a friend that worked at the Cummins shop and what do you know, he had the part. The parts man also told me there is a three week nationwide back-order on them.
Moral of the story, check the clamp, and order one just in case... They're only $25.00 -

I like to see some pictures of this, and was it the clamp or the hose that blew and why only on number 4 -

Yes! Thanks!!
Pics would be great!

(I think there is some sort of 'defect' here.... Can't remember where I read it; but, it seems like this is a common problem.)

Guess I better go check mine.....
How many miles on yours (to cause this)? -

I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow. My truck has 127,000 I'm almost certain it is a defective clamp because the new part comes with the clamp included and it has been redesigned. I'm not certain why it is just the #4 line. It might be others too. The parts dealer told me he has only sold the #4 though. The line itself broke on the injector side 1/4 inch from the nut. I've checked of few of my friends trucks and one of them had a loose clamp. Hope this saves some of you the headache/heartache on the side of the road. -
