Was it just the 92's or should I check the numbers on my late 93? I have seen the factory service video on youtube.

Mine is silver, but would like to check it out anyway for grins.

So roxxx, has the dealership called back and said they couldn't get that injection pump anymore? Or has it been replaced?

I am kinda scared to actually do it ... Would you want someone from dodge to change you Pump ?
They were ready to go the day i walked in and asked


They changed my VP 44 three times (Third one failed as I was selling it back to dodge) they change injectors didn't and remove the copper washers from the injector ports , four turbo’s , 3 lift pumps on warranty and in the end I and A cummins Tech figured out what was wrong that was a 6 month 6000 k ordeal

My dad had a 04 dmax that was starting very hard. It would crank for ever. He took it to the dealer and they said the injectors were bad, and the injector lines were rusty. It was 2 years old. So they installed new injectors and new lines. It did the same thing when he got it back. It ended up being a loose fuel filter. Luckily it was under warrenty. Gotta love the dealership sometimes.

I wonder if they will still do it if the pump has been modded? I guess i can say i just bought the truck that way? What do you think.
