The problem is, there's way more people with very basic car knowledge that just want the overview and to see cool mods than there are genuine gearheads that like to know and learn how things actually work.

I don’t even own a Cummins but I love watching your videos for the fact that they’re very informative and interesting. I learn so much more than trying to watch other channels’ annoying vlog style videos. Keep up the good work my dude.

Excellent content as always. This is my favourite truck channel because you actually show repairs and easy upgrades without just tossing new gear at the truck. Keep it up bud.

Thanks for showing the info for Bitterroot Diesel. I’m about a half hour away from them in Missoula and it’s good to know I have more resources now for injectors and rebuild kits whenever I would need them shipped fast.

can you do a full rig tour? it looks like a really sweet setup. and what type of welding work to you typically do day to day?

Great video! I just checked today to make sure I didn’t unsubscribe your channel. Good to see something again! Very informative!

Hey man ! As usual a nice helpful video 👍🏻 keep going like this......

Geesh, I love how you showed us first-timers how you get the valve cover off and back on.

Awesome work.super clean and everything in order i like. 100% very helpful video.

How am I just now finding this channel. I am subscribed to the best welding, fab, machinest, heavy equipment, big rig cat and Cummins diesel performance pages that there is and this is one of the best I think I have ran across, first video I found was "Cummins almost left me stranded" boy youd fit in down south fixing those damn injectors beside the road and draining the oil out of a truck your pulling. EARNED subscriber here ol pal and I will be binge watching you every evening from southwestern Virginia!

Exergy 50hp n their sportsman pump. Checked fass psi and holds 15 at wot. Guessing the return rates are high n that’s why we see the rail drop as of now.

Man i just bought an 03 crew cab shortbed 3500 single rear wheel 6 speed and love this thing! However i wanna do something good for daily driving and maybe towing like a car trailer with a crawler on it, she has 325k but runs great just want to do some upgrades, has a fass on it but definitely stock around 3k rpms feels like it defuels wanting to do some springs, injectors, tuning and eventually a turbo, nothing crazy just looking for more pull past 3k rpm and reliably if i could haha

Really informative information on the Injectors. Noticed you torqued the fuel tubes to 44 ft lbs, where the manual says 37 ft lbs. I've got a 2003 that currently only runs when I cap the fuel rail for injector #1. They are new injectors and fuel tubes, so I was going to try to reseat the fuel tube, but I'm going to try re-torquing the fuel tube to 44 ft lbs first.

What a great video!

I strongly recommend changing the o-rings on the injectors and fuel connectors, cuz if the o-ring on the injector don't seal properly, it'll let the return fuel to mix with your oil.. and that's not good! Oh and adjust your overhead set when you remove rockers.

@Cumminslife

5 жыл бұрын

I put all rockers, push rods and bridges back in the same spot so no need to adjust lash since It wasn't changed. I had spare injector Orings too but mine where fine so no need to replace.

Do I hear public enemy # one? Optimal Welding that's some good old school. Appreciate your knowledge and methods.

One thing I always do is put a rag over the pushrod holes.... so a loose keeper can’t fall down.

I have so many questions. I have an early 04 cummins

Hey another excellent tutorial video. Did you ever find those separate plastic pieces. I’m going to check out the injector website you spoke about. Going to check out your other videos.

Nice look. What lift kit do you have on truck also are those 17” on 35’s?

94 dodge ram eversince i burnt up my turbo the replacement has never worked over granny speed...same part same number just no boost...

How are the injectors holding up ? I’ve heard mixed reviews with changing nozzles as opposed to a set of new performance injectors. I want to do this myself but worried about ruining perfectly fine stock injectors

Had an injector stick open and melt one of my cylinders in my 04 cummins.. Just had it rebuilt and love it, now I know to always keep an eye on injectors.. Experience mistake.

Do you do EFI live tunes I have a 6.7 Cummins I talked to you before

I could be wrong but does the ECU not get its fuel consumption info via a calculation of fuel pressure and pulse width based on how much it would flow with stock nozzles? might want to verify that with a hand calc lol.

@Cumminslife

5 жыл бұрын

Not exactly sure how it calculates but it does seem to match up very close to hand calc both on stock nozzles and the 200% overs.

Hell yeah i bet you save a good bit by just doing the nozzles on it how many miles are on the ole dodge

I don’t trust the fuel economy gauge. Mine says I’m getting like 25 or 28 mpg which is way off. I’m getting around 19 mph stock.
