i have fuel dripping out of the bottom of my cp3 is there some kinda seal in there that can be replaced or do i have to replace the pump or can it be rebuilt by someone and upgraded somewhere please help

 

wheres the help i know this site is good about

 

Here is a thread that Rich2500 put together explaining how to replace the o-rings and seals with thicker ones, but it looks like the pictures are gone. I think he tells you the seals and o-rings you need though:

The leak occurs because the two halves of the CP3 are different materials. As they expand and contract with temperature fluctuations, the seals fail slightly. You will see a lot of threads popping up about this.

 

You could also take a look at the Industrial Injection modified CP3. With the mods you have, it might help!

There is also a DIY CP3 mod at relentless diesel:

You could do this combines with Rich2500's seal/o-ring replacement and kll 2 birds with one stone.

 

thanks man you are awsome i really need an upgraded pump is there anyone you know of that can rebuild mine and upgrade it????

 

I am already in over my head, so I'll let others pipe in. I am getting ready to get into the serious mods (Turbo, injectors, studs/rings, tranny etc.) so I have been reading a lot. That is where i got the above info.

There are some other guys on here that have a lot more info when it comes to mods.

There is also the DIY mod from relentless diesel which I added to the above post. Maybe a local diesel shop can handle this for you:

yeah i wish atleast the wife understands if the truck is broke it has to be fixed to get me to work lol

 

stovepipe03 you need to fill out sig to let us know about the truck

 

Just tell her that you have to fix it "RIGHT" so it doesn't ever break again. It's a lot of money now, but think of the long term savings.

 

It's WEAK WEAK WEAK.. I've been meaning to do that.

 

naw it is a sharp truck it'll get stronger just wait til the diesel bug bites

 

does the pump come out with the gear on it ????

 

It's already trying to bite me. I know it won't be long, I just need to be educated a little then I will start the mods. I just have to balance between my truck and my car.

 

Good Luck The Just Remember The Car Is Already Fast Now Its Time To Make The Truck Out Run The Car
