911 first gen
:scare2:please help i am 80 miles from home.
engine lost power out the highway when i came in to this little town the engine died. 1993 cummins i checked the fuel filter and it was full but i changed it anyway. no start I cracked the injector lines and fuel sprayed out each. no start and no smoke. please help Bob |
any luck yet with your truck and you changed your fuel filter and have plenty of fuel at your injectors :humm:
|
Wow aint this a Doozy, maybe loss of compression or something like that. i mean you have fuel going into injectors but no smoke. I don't think it would be injectors fouled.:nope:
|
fuel pump problems [timing issues] broken pump gear maybe broken cam:scare2: :humm:
|
well I got a ride home and will be picking the truck up in the morning. I've had some time to think about things that happened over the week.
Wensday the truck loss a little power and the idle dropped about 150 rpm. I noticed this when I killed the truck at a stop light. it has never died before. Thursday morning it started slower than normal 2-3 cranks this morning i had to step on the throttle for it to start. almost normal power and normal smoke. millage is 286000 I have owned it for 35000 and have had to do nothing other than service. ---AutoMerged DoublePost--- I agree with the timing problem, maybe gears. I have never done anything with a cummins. |

Sounds to me like the VE is getting tired... :td: |
well we drug it home today and it still won't start. i will be checking the valve train to see if everything is running up and down.
I have a date with the mechanic monday high points will be timing and VE problems. |
had a mechaninc look at it and the fuel I was getting at the injector was actually very little. so I am having the IP REBUILT.

sure it wasn't something simple like the shutoff solenoid?? I would hate to see ya rebuild a good pump over a $30 or so part.

Did it just suddenly quit? Does it re-start after cooling off?
Sometimes I wonder why I even bother trying to help people around here. :nope: |
