    Still not starting or idling

    Does anyone know if part #4025299 is the right one for our injectors? They say marine but I’m not sure why there would be a difference. thanks

    Still not starting or idling

    Not yet man. I run my own business and I just haven’t had the time to work on it. I can tell you that I checked the return fuel from the IP the last time I tried to figure this out and at idle the fuel flows freely. But I don’t think that’s what you mean. i spoke to someone the other day about...

    Still not starting or idling

    The truck ran like a clock years ago. It would pop off without even spinning a full revolution. The truck sat for about a year and it would start but it was hard. eventually It stopped starting all together. I pulled the tank and cleaned it and changed the lift pump and filter. No change. I...

    I’m not sure how to check the pressure from the lift pump. It is the 2nd brand new one from Cummins though and the engine does the same thing. Once you start it with ether you can drive it around and it will idle in neutral. You can turn it off and immediately try to crank it and all it does is...

    In gear it won’t idle. But out of gear it isles fine. So two different issues. it isles around 600

    It was removed on the last round of suggestions and it had no affect.

    The only fuel filter is the one above the lift pump on the engine. It’s about a 3” diameter filter with the water drain in the bottom. I don’t have frame mounted filters or the inline. I will check the fuel shut off and pressure up the tank

    I only have the big screw on filter. everyone said before that it could be sucking air so I changed everything from the lift pump back and there is no change. I have to doubt very seriously that it’s getting air from any of that. what are other places that air could enter in?

    Ok I will give this a shot but I guess I don’t understand why I can start it with a squirt of ether in the stack and it will sit there and idle in neutral all day if it’s the trans

    But it doesn’t start in neutral on its own.

    Ok so the only thing I know to do now is replace the lines from the lift pump to the filter and from the filter to the injector pump. Does anyone know how to buy these new? Is there a part # for the lines because they are all hard lines with banjos made in them ?

    Ok so I finally got around to working on my m923a2. Changed the dip tubes (stainless), put all new Parker push lock fittings and lines from tank to lift pump and from tank to return on injection pump. New lift pump and cleaned tank completely. Also new fuel filter. Truck will crank with stating...

    Killing while idling.

    So somewhere in here I saw mention of a kit that someone makes with all new dip tubes and fuel lines but I can’t find it now. Does anyone know where I can buy this? I want to replace everything from the tank all the way to the pump to eliminate it from the equation. And just an update. I...
