Hi, new to the web site. I need a new injector pump and injectors. Has anyone had any luck with pensacola diesel? and throughbreed diesel?

You need to explain a bit more why you need a new Ip and injectors. Also tell us a bit about your truck. Then it will be a lot easier to help you out.

I don't know of the places you mentioned

Desert Hunter fill out your signature so we can see whatcha got. Like Tron said tell us something about your truck and what's happening that makes you believe you need a new IP and new injectors. It might be something that we can help ya with and you won't have to spend some big bucks to replace all this. Good luck and welcome to the forum.

Hey Guys, I bought a 1993 w250 Le Cummings club cab 4x4 off an older man has 115k.It was running good for the last 3 months and the started white smoke at idle and missing at acceleration, then would smooth out.The truck had only been driven 400 miles in 2008.I Had injectors checked and they were good.Ran compression and was getting 375 across all 6 cylinders.Also checked cooling no leak down. Finally pulled pump bolts were loose and nut on the front shaft was cross threaded and the key was trashed.I think the pump was running out of time. I bought a new pump from Thoroughbred diesel.com out of Kentucky and decided to put in new Bosch 40+ injectors from Injection Services out of Oregon. The customer service was good. I will post back when I install the parts.

The other guys will know more about the pump and injectors than me. However, I will tell you that you could lose some friends by adding a G to the word Cummins.

haha I've been around these things so long I purposely mispronouce and misspell cummings for variety.

Mike/loco1 calls pronounces it cummings as well, I think I stole that habit from him. And nope haven't lost any friends yet haha... then again you have to have friends to be able to lose any.

Cummings/Cummins either way doesn't get under my skin anymore.

Well installed the new injector pump and the new 40 hp injectors and the truck is running great. When I pulled the old pump it just fell out the back.The older man I bought this truck from just had the pump replaced last October while on a hunting trip. It was just poor workmanship. I called that shop and told them what for.. So the diagnosis was the pump was loose and running out of time and ruined the pump shaft and key.The injectors where fine but just upgraded.

LOL..I do the same thing just to jack others up..Enjoy hearing them, correcting me.. Its fun..

Desert Hunter

Hey All, sorry I haven't been on since last October was to busy chasing waterfowl The truck is running great probably to good!! The only thing new are the toyo muds 285/75/16 and rims. I'm only getting 13 mpgthe new pump is stock. Do you guys think the 40hp injectors and the new tire size would do this? I think a K&N will help what do you think??? or new turbo??

The tires aren't helping but if you live north enough for winter diesel I'll guarantee that's why your mileage is low. The new pump I would tend to think would give you better mileage over a used worn one but idk...

I'm only seeing 14mpg if I'm REAL lucky. It's just about exclusively from winter fuel. I'm also running on a stock auto trans which doesn't help.

You could do the common checks though. Check for boost leaks, make sure the air filter is good and clean. when did you last replace the fuel filter? Do you know when the last valve job was done? Again, the tires aren't going to help either though. You'd probably lose a little on that but not much I bet.

Desert Hunter

Thanks Rick , New fuel filter when i put the pump in? But these guys claiming 20-23 mpg are full of bull!!! This is My 4th diesel cummins and power stroke and the best was around 17mpg

Rick 12v CTD

I've personally gotten 20mpg on my truck before I started to modify things. 5spd trucks get a lot better mileage than me too though. I do believe it when some guys claim 20-22 mpg empty on the highway if they got a standard, but the auto trucks just don't get it.

Even now in the summer I get 18+ mpg empty on the highway if I keep it around 60-65.

btw, that's a really nice truck!

Desert Hunter

This is a automatic as well, but still 13 mpg? My 99 24 valve and My 02 stroke were better than this old cool ram. I had a friend tell me the 40 hp injectors were a wast unless you advanced the pump? got me? What about a open thermostat? not letting the truck get up too temp?
