Q: my husband had a mental breakdown and bought the truck of his dreams a dodge ram 1985. only problem is that it wont pass emissions. it doesnt even have a cat on it or half of the exhaust pipe. its a dual exhaust and so far ive only seen one muffler. its needs spark plugs and the timing adjusted. hes a very smart man besides this impulse buy and i think he and a buddy of his could do the work. but i am in desperate need of advice. should we have a mechanic do some then do the rest ourselves please help! thanks ps. i know how to do most of the easy stuff on cars change oil lights brakes what certain problems sound like etc. but he knows less than i. .

does anybody know if there is any info on the web re fuel filter replacement on an 05 cummins as in how to do it stick a drain pan under the clear plastic drain tube thats just above the front axle. flip the yellow lever on the fuel filter canister drivers side engine down low and close to the firewall and using a 1-1/8 socket on the molded hex of the black canister cap unscrew the cap. the fuel in the bowl will drain out the tube and probably miss the drain pan usually happens. the filter will come out attached to the cap. spray out the inside of the canister with some brake cleaner washing any crud out the drain. while thats evaporating remove the old filter from the cap and discard. remove the o-ring around the cap and discard that too. lube the new o-ring included with the new filter with a little diesel from the drain pan or the puddle on the ground next to the drain pan put it on the cap snap the new filter onto the cap hole faces away from the cap and put it back in the canister. screw the cap back on until theres no gap between the cap and the canister. dont over-tighten it could crack. flip the yellow drain lever closed. this is very important!!! stick the key in the ingnition and bump it to start. this means turn it to start for an instant then let go the engine wont start. this will run the fuel pump for about 30 seconds. once you hear the pump stop its in the tank but you should still be able to hear it bump it again. this should purge all the air out of the canister. start the truck and let it idle for 30 seconds or so to work out the last of the trapped air you may hear the engine stumble - it may even stall. if so just re-start it. itll be fine. thats about it... be sure to use a fleetguard fuel filter available from any cummins dealer your dodge dealer or genos garage http//www.genosgarage.com - probably cheapest from genos. .
