New to Cummins, Possible Dead Oil Pump?

Yeah, there's no reason I shouldn't be able to trust those.
Also, some good news: My friend who works at a junkyard back home told me they just got a '99 Ram with a Cummins in, so he put the turbo aside for me. $200 for an HX35 with almost no shaft play and the dowpipe seems like a fair price.

Tell that to my old boss. He thinks side to side is bad and an inch in and out is fine, and he's in charge of a 150 vehicle fleet.

Well I picked up a like-new H1C for cheap today and got it all back together. I took the power off the injection pump and cranked the engine for a little bit to circulate the oil, and there was an intermittent squeaking noise. I hooked the power back on the injection pump, and the engine started right up. It ran great for around 5 seconds, and then there was a metal-on-metal noise so I shut it down. I couldn't really tell where it came from unfortunately.

Interesting, I wouldn't think cam bearings are too common of a failure part?? Let us know what you find during tear down.
