Hi all, been a while since i've posted, but i'm wondering what manuals are available for our trucks besided the factory serive manual and stuff like chiltons?
I have the factory service manaul, but it doesn't cover much of anything on the injection pump and some parts of the engine mechanical are a bit lacking on info. I read a while back that there was a complete engine book, but i don't remember where i read it.
Thanks

Cummins sells a repair manual for the engine, but the injection pumps are not covered other than R&R and timing procedures.

 

What i need to know is the order of the throttle linkage stuff. I took it apart, then to my surprise it is more difficult to reinstall then i thought.

 

That's in the FSM. If you don't have one, your Dodge dealer should be able to print you out an exploded diagram off the parts computer or at least let you look at the picture.

 

Yeah, i do have a factory service manual, but i can't find anything on it. Really it's just a matter of four or five parts, but i really want to make sure i get them right as i don't want the throttle sticking.
Thanks
Brent

 

Hmmm... that's sorta ignorant! With an engine that is made up of a standard Cummins diesel long block assembly and the only major difference between engines being the injection pump, and with that as the #1 part for maintenance and repair, you'd think they might detail it!?? I wonder if American Bosch could help on that as it's their pump, used on MANY different engines? Or what about some other manufacturers, like Volkswagen etc.? Any other known sources for VE pump repair manuals?
