#11 fuel plate
 
I have a 96 cummins. I just installed a 11 plate, afc all the way ahead, plate stock setting, afc all the way ahead. And kit came with restricted waste fitting. I really don't see much difference from stock. I have a stock trans also, but can I have more, or would I be pushing the trans? Move the 11 plate a little forward? Help, thanks

auto tranny? i have the same and a guy told me i could go a #6 just watch your gauges

one of these days if you r messin around with it, take the plate completely out and see how you like that..if not i would shove that plate all the way forward f i was you. you should see a differance

Coco2992 03-30-2009 10:04 PM

yeah but running it without can cause some serious promblems

i have a 96' w/ a #100 fuel plate all the way forward and my starwheel fully forward and my stock tranny is starting to give out after just 2 weeks.

Coco2992 03-30-2009 11:16 PM

Only trans damage lol Running plate less will not hurt a thing except your trans. However you need to mod your AFC and a rack plug to take advantage of it. And to much rack travel isnt great for a 215 pump. They run better with a stock plug.

5 speed or Auto? The #11 is my favorite plate for a mild truck. At least in a 215 pump. You should be noticing a deference. What's your boost pressure?

No gauges, just running the plate for mods and a 4 inch exhaust. Plate came with restricted waste gate fitting. Thats all, stock tranny, stock plate location.

I would guess your trans isnt holding it. However without a gauge for boost it could just be a boost leak.

brich6600 03-31-2009 05:16 PM

Ya I should get some, but the thing doesn't even smoke other then just off the start, can't be running to hot on the pyro, and if there was no boost then it would smoke. Can definately hear the turbo more sine the restricted nipple. I think the tranny sucks the most. Thanks guys.

xzaq103 03-31-2009 08:48 PM

Is your AFC at FF?

brich6600 04-01-2009 03:46 AM

Yup its slid all the way ahead and the starwheel is all the way ahead. Little puff on first hard throttle, thats it. Pulling hill or lugging no smoke. But when under hard throttle it don't shift gears well, so I say trans sucks. My guess. Thanks again, I will stick with what I have I guess till the trans shits. Then I fix it better.

Just to make sure get some gauges first. Get an EGT boost and a FP just to make sure your LP isnt crap There are ways to tell if your trans isnt holding.

there's definatly something goin on there,when i first got mine it had nothing but 100hp injectors,no plate or anything.trust me when she lugged she smoked!!

Coco2992 04-05-2009 12:19 AM

no no no, no need for a fp gauge for a 12v he would need a tranny gauge more along with boost and pyro

You likely need to do a gov. arm adjustment. When I put in a 11 plate, there was no difference in performance because the gov arm was going under the plate. Very common with 11's. Directions: PDR Diesel Inc. The turbo diesel performance specialists! - Lever Adj
Be sure not to over loosen the back nut and don't drop anything into the pump!:argh: This made all the difference in mine, but there are still egt problems at my altitude with only the 11 plate. So as said, spend a few dollars on gauges and save thousands on major problems.

Very true you dont need one mostly because the p7100 is lubed by oil. However they do go out and when the go out they give off symptoms not unlike he is having.

Coco2992 04-12-2009 12:20 PM

youd be much better off with a tranny temp. if anything for the third gauge.
