Thanks for an excellent step by step video. I had several garages tell me over $800 labor to replace the VP44. After watching this video I was able to change it out myself and I am not a mechanic by no means. Again, thanks for an excellent video, would not have tried this repair without it. 99 Dodge Ram 2500, 5.9L 24 valve.

Thanks! Glad it helped!

It seems the vp44 engine is way under rated given all the problems other trucks have. So what if you gotta change a pump out every 150,000 miles or whatever the norm is. I think these engines are one of the best ever made.

Thanks for this video, no one around here wanted to touch my Dodge Cummins, so I did. I'm no mechanic, but this video allowed for a flawless job. Thanks

I literally just got back from buying my first 24 valve,I had been working on a deal for this truck for over a year now,it’s a 98.5 Laramie slt,4wd,quad cab,all power,leather interior,black and a beast.I had it shipped from my home town in Maryland back to Florida where I live now,so thank you for your knowledge…I’m anxiously awaiting its arrival right now…oh yeah,it’s bone stock except for a muffler deleted and flex piped,that’s it! She’s got 282k on her and zero blow bye…thanks again

This post is a well deserved compliment to this video!! In short, a child could change a vp44 after watching this video!! I actually ordered their "pump puller " due to this video. I actually pulled my pump back out thinking all went in too easy! Yet, white paint was still perfect & added a pin dot of red dead center & ALL slipped back in perfect again! As far as bleeding the truck on first start, Since alone, I cracked all but #2. ( tight pre-horn) & hit starter counting to 6 seconds. ALL 5 injectors were wetish & tightened all BUT #1. still cracked. Hit starter & truck started!! SHUT DOWN asap! Tighted #1. & ALL start & run PERFECT!! ( Bought my 2001 D2500 6sp new & a Cummins engineer recommended a Fass 150 & did it. Now, decades later same Fass still pumping 16oz. in under 3 seconds & 15-16 psi. ) Anyway, GREAT VIDEO!! Watch this video & if you can change a starter... change your vp44 yourself!!

Great to hear! You're very welcome!

On mine I put studs in the two air horn bolt holes closest to the VC. That eliminates jacking around trying to get the gaskets, heater and air horn all lined up to get the bolts started.

Thank you so much. What a great video. I'm definitely doing this job myself. I'm almost done with it. Being a Machinist, I easily made my own puller.

You can do it!

The gear puller will also help the VP pop out of the gear case if you keep tightening it down a bit more past the gear popping off. This uses the gear against the front cover to help push the VP out. Works great.

Great video and great timing on releasing it... really appreciate everything y'all do for the VP44 community! I just ordered a VP44 (2 year warranty) earlier this week from you and will be installing it on my Freightliner step van later this week. This is the best video I've seen on step by step instructions and all the things to watch out for. Thanks again!

On removing the nut and lock washer from the pump I stuff a small rag in, around and below the nut with a part of the rag hanging out the timing cover so that there is absolutely no possibility of the nut, washer or key falling into the case. Just a small, simple step to prevent a straightforward pump swap from turning into a nightmare.

What are the things to watch for? How does the return line and that 3 way fitting fit with the FASS fuel pump system?

Change the tappet cover gasket or cover if you have lots of miles on the truck . Mine just started leaking at 220, 000 . I had to take the other three injector lines off , not that big of deal . I could not get the tappet cover off without taking them off. I'm going back with a aluminum cover . You will have to take that lifting eye bracket off to loosen number 6 injector line . I did the line with a long wrench but a shorty wrench will work better but long wrench wasn't a problem .

Unless it's been done very recently I'd want to change the fuel filter while the canister is out in my hand.

When will you do a video on replacing the steering gear box on a 2001 Dodge Ram 2500?

To find TDC with pump gear. I would place keyway at 12 o'clock position and if keyway is at 6 o'clock position would that be the 180 degrees ? I ask this for wanting to do check my valves. Thanks in advance

I’ve installed a new Injection pump that’s from thoroughbred diesel the install went smooth and I drove her for a bout 2 miles turned her off for about 5 mins when fired her back up it had a nasty lope to her and white smoke coming out of my exhaust, have any idea what might be the cause or problem?

How often should we change the blow bye filter?

I have a 2002 f650 eith the 5.9 where do hook the fuel pressure gage up to any ides thsnks.

WoW i dont want to tell any one there job but man this is a job an a half i would just remove all 6 lines iv had them off when i replaced the injectors and im older than dirt so id just take them off

Do you think there’s an issue leaving the fuel filter housing off after doing a FASS system? I wouldn’t think there would be , but I’ve never seen anyone leave them off.

No issue. Cleans up the engine bay.

I have a question about the VP44 gear, when I was taking my VP44 off, I had the key way slightly to the right( about 1/3 of the way) from TDC, when took VP44 out the gear just drop down, is there a problem with that? Will it be fine if I install my new VP44 or will it have some timing issue even if I align it like you specified in the video? I will appreciate your help! And thank you in advance

Yes, not problem. Just use the old pump position to line up the new pump. And the gear can drop without hurting anything, thankfully it cannot jump time with the gear cover on.

Are you guys doing inhouse testing? Or are you still having a 3rd party doing the testing? 4 years and still running with no problem's

@thoroughbreddiesel

Жыл бұрын

If you park your truck nose up or downhill, does the problem go away? If so, its most definitely a leakdown issue. Could be anywhere really, but most of the times it usually is the long return line coming from the VP pump back to the 3 way T at the back of the motor.

my Question is ... iv replaced my fuel psi gage 4 times glow shift? ..."junk?" NOW i have a iso gage And it's coming off the bottom of the stock fuel filter bowel every thing has been good...

If you can make that pressure fall “on command” then just verify with a manual gauge. If the pressure is truly dropping, then look for a restriction or possibly a failing lift pump.

I need your help... today i do my VP44 swap but i think i did a mistake. After i pull the old VP Out and before install the new one i crank the engine over to have the gear on the 12 oclock Position.. it was round about 160 degrees... is that a problem?

Make sure when you reinstall, that the keyway in the gear is up at the 12 oclock position.

It will depend on your lift pump you are installing. If you aren’t seeing the connection at the ECM, suspect that the truck has a pump in the tank.

What would cause my pump gear to run on top of my keyway? I put a new pump on and it ran rough. Took it off and sent it back and they told me my pump gear rode on top of the keyway and damaged the keyway. Ant advise I appreciate it

@thoroughbreddiesel

We usually find that the keyway was missed on installation, not by actually having the gear turn independently of the pump shaft. That could happen, however it would have to start with a missed keyway.

So I'm having a bit of trouble getting the vp44 to slide in straight. I bought the updated bracket for the vp44 because mine was broken now the bracket rubs the tappet cover and won't go into the pump gear straight. What's the deal?

@thoroughbreddiesel

Remove the bracket for now then install after the vp44 is installed. Just don’t tighten up all bolts till you have them and the 4 nuts on the cover in place.

The issue was the tappet cover noise panel was causing clearance issues for the updated bracket, I ended up cutting a section the size of the bracket out of the panel, and it finally went in.

If the pump was installed wrong how do you time/pin the motor to know if your injection pump time wrong?

VP’s are key timed, so if you missed the keyway then it will be out of time.
