I'm getting ready to asemble my new engine. The new block that I recieved from Cummins has quite a few parts that I can't figure where they go. Mostly washers and some orings. What cummins manual would have the details I need to assemble this thing correctly the first time?

 

Get the service manual from Chrysler for your year. Thats what I used when I got my new block. Thanks Steve B.

 

Have it, didn't show all of the parts. Does have most of it though. I'll re-read it again, maybe I missed something.

How close is Gibsonia to Ellwood City?

 

Get a service manual right from Cummins...expensive but worth it

 

Service Manual or shop manual? I have the main service manual and it shows basic assembly, torque values, dimensions, etc but didn't go into the specifics in regards to o-rings. Your right that thing was expensive. Good book to have.

There is only a few items in the parts box included with the block that I can't figure out. I probably should just post the pictures and see what you guys say they are or where they go.

 

Let me dig up my ISB manual I'll give you the part#...it will tell you everything you want to know and then some.

 

30 mi. maybe.

 

Thanks Logskidder. The manual I thought may have all the little details was 3666017(Shop Manual). I don't want to spend the cash (again) without making sure.

ctd89-99 Maybe one day we'll cross paths, I get down to New Castle and Ellwood City a couple times per month. PLan on attending a few events this year.

 

I'll get it in the morning.....it in my toolbox at work

 

Where you located Scott?

 

The western southern tier of NY. 50 miles east of Erie PA

 

I dug it out and blew the dust off....part #3666193-01, however looking it I dont think it will do you much good if you have a part and dont know where it belongs.

 

Thanks logskidder. That is the manual that I had purchased. Good book but as you said it doesn't point to what part goes where.

Does anybody have the Shop Manual, 3666017? I know on my tractors the shop manuals have expanded drawings of each of the assemblies.

 

Post up a pic of it, alot of times you get stuff you dont need.

 

Will do. Part box is at machine shop so I will get it next week and post it. In the meantime I talked to Cummins and they suggested the parts book. It has exploded assembly details in it.
