2010 dodge ram 2500/3500

when the injectors lifted.

I wonder what massive piece of metal bent to let that happen ?, injector retainer bolt stretch ?


I recently acquired a 02 Dodge w/ the 24V 6 hole Cummins. Bone stock.
Don't quite know which direction I'm going to go with it. A least a upgrade chip.

for a chip look at a smarty for good power or a edge for all around good.

Never owned a Cummins but have had 3 PowerStrokes. I have had a Edge Juice, PDQ, and Quadzilla. I like the Quadzilla but the PDQ makes my 04 F-250 run like a scalded dog. It did 14.1 @ 98 with no other mods. I personally like Quadzilla products but there are many great ones on the market. I like the chips much better than the programmers so I can turn up or down the tune on the fly. I run 80ish HP gain when towing 10,000# or more but for day to day driving I like the 120 HP gain.

Not to argue but why would they want to have a small diesel option?

Fuel mileage. Not everyone needs that power. And, the old 12 valve motors got really good mileage.

Before you add any extra power, install some gauges, especially a fuel pressure gauge. The 98.5' - 02' 24 valve's were fed by the VP44 fuel pump, which was in turned fed by the Carter lift pump. The LP likes to die all of a sudden and they'll take out the VP44 with it. A new LP will only run you a couple hundred, but it's better to go ahead and replace it with an aftermarket pump such as a FASS, Walbro, Airdog, etc anyway. Aftermarket pump's are more reliable and can flow much more fuel than a stock one can. The VP44 though, is about a $3k replacement and a FP gauge can really save that money. That's not to say they won't go on there own, but an FP gauge will make them last a lot longer.

Don't be alarmed by what I have said though, the mechanically injected 24 valve's are great engines with extreme Cummins reliability, a huge potential for additional horse power, and get great fuel mileage to boot. I'm sure you'll be quite satisfied with it.

Heres the Cummins the 3500 is mine got it real cheap has an R title but looks as good as new. and the 5500 is the companys truck but its at my house as much as the 3500. Love both of them. Normaly put grandpa in my 3500 and i run the 5500 when it snows.

Are you kidding me?
That's a good line of BS you had going on there.
Don't mean to start anything with my first post, but that "3500" is mine, and it's a 2500. The 5500 is not yours either, it is a guy's I know as well.

Is this serious? Somebody else is claiming to own your truck?

Actually, I'm leaning towards the Juice with the attitude monitor.

Here is some interesting reading for you all.

That is a topic from another member "CAT MAN". I'm positive this is the former screen name for 3500DIESEL and if you just read through that thread you will easily be able to see the similarities. He has talked exactly the same way in this thread as he has in similar ones on this forum as well as on the truck/trailer forums on Lawnsite.com.

Just thought you all would find this interesting, I can't stand a liar and a sneak.

I thought it was kind of funny myself.
