sure can do.

 

Am I missing something here? I looked up a 1st gen lift pump in yahoo. Piersdiesel sells it for 46 dollars. Thanks for your post. I am new to diesel and depend on your questions here so I know what to look for on my truck. Even though my truck runs great I guess i need to know if the lift pump is working right to keep the injector pump working. Cheaper to fix the small stuff.

 

Searcher, you have a stock diaphragm style lift pump. That is fine for a stock truck, and even for one that is turned up a good bit. What we are discussing here is a piston style pump that delivers a higher volume and pressure. This is needed with big injectors and internal pump mods.

 

Thanks. I learn something every day from you guys. Best group of folks in the world here.

 

I ordered mine about a week ago from Cummins, all came in Friday, installed today. Other than trimming out a section of insulation on the side of the block, it went in easy as can be.

Initial thoughts, it does seem to pull harder up to 3000 than before. Time for more pump tweaks.

 

Is there an online place I could order that stuff? I do have a new lift pump...still sitting in it`s box actually, but if I`m going to bother swapping i might as well get the good one right? (it`s a federal mogul replacement, diaphragm type).

 

Available at any Cummins location. Not sure if it is available online, though.

 

I don't think you can buy the first gen version online but ive seen some 2nd gen stuff, buts it too high of psi

 

A little over 2 months ago someone posted part numbers for a piston pump made for a first gen, I ended up buying it all for about $160.
It maintains around 14 PSI I will try and find my reciept and get the numbers.

 

so they said they used them on case tractors and such i woudnt go there make sure you get the right pump im not saying go with cummins you could get an aftermarket pump but go at a big rig store that carries cummins parts im sure the price will be below dealers 80 $ souds good but it could be an expensive paper weight if its no the right one

i had the same prob with my tractor so i put in an electric pump so far so good

The last post on the first page has all the part numbers.
The gasket part number starts with 36 but is suppose to start with 39 like the rest of the part numbers
