I was told that over time the spring gets weak and stops doing its job as effectively. And with 256k on my factory ofv, I'd like to know more about it and possibly replace it.

 

if they only a couple bucks and you think its best to replace it, go ahead and replace it.
changing it now will probably cause less headaches down the road when it does go bad

 

Yeah, but basically the same deal.

 

Where could I find one? Just go thru my local cummins dealer? Because I couldn't find one on ebay

 

yea cummins dealer is your best bet, for somthing like that id make sure that it is cummins not some off brand

 

#1 - Cummins has them for sure but they wont be cheap like the ebay ones

#2 - probably all or most of our sponsors can get their hands on them

#3 - you cant find them on e-bay huh? Theres 3 right here on this page - cummins overflow valve, eBay Motors, Fuel Inject. Controls Parts. Great deals on eBay!

 

I'll see how much they ask for them.


1. so an ebay ofv is fine?
2. Which sponsor, in particular (hehe)
3. smarty pants, I searched and the only thing I pulled up were vp44 pieces

Sorry, I forgot to mention - that you should try to get a Bosche overflow valve if you can
