injector line leakin
From : Annonymous
Q: this kinda preludes my post about the leaking injector. thursday morning driven to work on the south loop a buddy i work with pulls up alongside in his company ride it is a 02 ford f-150 2-wd reg cab long bed with a 351 or what ever they call them now and a auto trans. he starts goosing it. im running 65 @ about 1700 locked up good an tight so i called him on the cell phone he asked if i wanted to race i said naw but i would let him try to pull me the rest of the way if he wanted . he say what are you worried about that damn dodge breaking down at breaking down i tried to put the fuel peddle throw the floor board a couple of seconds later im running 100 and the ford is about 100 yds behind and loosing ground. so i let off the fuel and let him catch up. this time i let him jump first his cab was about even with my front bumper when i hit the fuel again and that was as far as he got by 100 i was a good truck length ahead. when we got to the yard he was actually bragging on the dodge. he3 said that he saw a little puff of whit smoke when i let off the fuel so i popped the hood and found the leak. if you are still reading here are my questions i never black smoke is this caused by the cat i want to adjust the fuel plate but should i wait until i install a egt gauge -- billy 1995 ram 2500 4x4 cummins .

having once owned a 95 ctd that went through transmissions faster than it did tires...id say that it still sounds like dodge contrary to what many claim still cannot make a reliable tranny with the cummins. and id say you better find some facts to back your opinion. -- max there are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty soap ballot jury and ammo. please use in that order. -ed howdershelt author hi all i just went out to test drive a 2500 with the turbo cummins and the auto trans. i noticed a vibration out of the transmission when first starting out from a stop. is this normal i think its the tranny slipping the first gear.... having had an old 70 challenger with the big trans slipping the first gear always lead to early rebuilds of the clutch pack.... any insight would be appreciated. having once owned a 95 ctd that went through transmissions faster than it did tires...id say that it still sounds like dodge contrary to what many claim still cannot make a reliable tranny with the cummins. .
