This 94 12V is an absolute slug
hey guys, we have a truck in our shop right now, its a 94 3500 4x4 reg cab. this thing was a complete dog, nearly had to floor it to drive it normally, we adjusted the valves, set the timing, and slid the plate all the way, and the truck is no different ???????? I think its a fuel problem cause there is absolutely no smoke at all. Has a good fuel filter, runs ok, just no power whatsoever, almost have it floored on accel just to drive it. any thoughts? Thanks

There could be many things wrong like,OFV,LP,plugged fuel lines,shutoff switch or even the IP.Your best bet now would be to install a fuel pressure gauge and see what pressure your getting.I think the LP maybe the problem.

I suspect the fuel shut off solenoid is not fully lifting the lever arm and is limiting fuel flow to the injection pump. Might turn the key on and push the lever up to see if it will open up any further.

Almost forgot about this one.
Local Dodge mechanic called me to help with a 12 valve pig. I went through the checklist and determined no boost. We went through the possibles and found a blown boost actuator as well as the waste gate stuck open.
Only Dodge option is a new turbo.
I educated them on calling local Cummins shop for repair parts. A little elbow grease to free the waste gate plus new actuator made a happy customer.
