I read on a thread on here that a lot of people have removed the fuel plate with no problems, so I went ahead and tried it. Well, the truck was running fine until I felt a pop, and the truck died. Now it won't start. The engine will turn over, though, but won't start. Can anyone tell me what happened?

I put the fuel plate back in, and looked at everything to make sure I didn't see something wrong, but it all looked fine.

 

A lot of people spin the chamber, put the gun to their head, and pull the trigger with no problem too. A bigger problem is a runaway motor.
Running plateless is not good, and really isn't better than running a #100 or #0 plate, heres what the inside of the pump looks like. Scroll down about halfway http://www.cumminsdatabase.com/read.php?id=58
My guess is you broke the pin and will need a pump rebuild, but contact a Cummins or Bosch injection shop first.

 

Okay, thanks. So should I have the pump sent somewhere to be rebuilt?

 

Call one of these shops, and ask them.

Ya I talked to NW Cummins yesterday, I'm going to bring my truck in, I just gotta make arrangements with someone for hauling it in.

 

Good luck, let is know what it turns out to be, and what it cost to fix.

 

Thanks. The shop is really backed up, the truck is down there so when they have an extra moment they can take a look.
