How much you grab that for?
Those things still sell like gold around here. There's one on craigslist right now that's a 1999...same truck as yours but I think it only has around 66,000mi on it and they want just $20,000!!!
I'm just like, really, I know it's a Cummins and all but the truck still is 14yrs old!!
A fuel pressure gauge can be your best friend on a vp-44 injected truck like yours. Would be a wise investment if you dont have one yet.
Yep North Carolina truck....Im in the market for a cummins. Nice looking truck. Must not be from the northeast.
Nice truck had a red 02 just like it, now have an 05. A fuel pressure gauge can be your best friend on a vp-44 injected truck like yours. Would be a wise investment if you dont have one yet.

^The in tank style is better, but they can still go bad. This will then have the same result and end up taking out the injection pump. A low pressure indicator light would be a cheap solution to help you keep an eye on it and prevent a small problem from becoming a very costly repair.

I'm not diesel savy, so allow me to ask an odd question. What does said solutions help you avoid?
1995-1998 1/2 Cummins 12 valve engines used a low pressure fuel system [lift pump on block] just like a gas engine,in mid year 1998 they changed over to a 24 valve engine and started using an in tank pump along with a lift pump creating a high pressure system [the mechanical lift pump was problematic] and was prone to falure if that happens the low fuel pressure [fuel cools the moving parts in the injection pump] destroys the internals of the injection pump [they came up with a modified aftermarket kit] calle a fass system that removes the mechanical pump therefore avoiding falure. This is my reason for sticking with 12 valve engines,plus 12 valves are all mechanically controlled where as the 24 valve engines are computer controlled.
Great site, tons of info on these trucks... And you are right about pulling anything you want too...This sight can be your friend!!!
