Sorry yes i do, still new to the game.

 

its alright buddy. we are here to help. you can put a 7100 on there but it will cost you more. you need some other stuff to make it work.

 

Then i guess i should stick with the stock pump!

 

Did you ever look to see if the key was still in the pump timing gear?
Have you also tried to see if it would at least fire off with a quick shot of starting fluid?

You might also want to consider a new mechanic.

It also dosent have a timing chain

 

Yes the key is still in the timing gear. It would start and then die when starting fluid was used. I wasn't present for that. As for the mech, he is a good one and has done a good amount of work with cummins. This one just has his number i guess. Again, sorry used to deal with small block chevys, Timing chain cover, timing gear cover... all the same for me.

 

typically white smoke indicates that your pump is out of time. your definately getting some combution because there is black smoke. definately check for a restriction in you intake. sorry i cant be more help but i hope you get it figured out

 

Could it possibly be some valves stuck closed or open on the valvetrain. Not sure but it might be a good idea to check. Just pull the valve covers off and spin the motor over and make sure all the valves are opening and closing as they should be.

 

I will pass the info along to him and see what he thinks. I hate to buy a new pump but we replaced alot of stuff so far and we are running out of things to replace....

yea check out the valve train. lets hope not but i guess you could possibly have a broken cam
