I have a 2003 dodge 2500 cummins 5.9 230XXX miles on it. It been good to me since i bought it new. Now it has troubles starting. When its left in the sun or its really hot outside the truck struggles to start. It starts then quickly dies, if i crank it and give it gas sometimes doesnt rev, when it does rev it dies right after. After fighting with it for 10 min or so it will start and idle funny the revs will bounce up and down. It also gives no codes so i have no clue what it could be, anyone experienced this issue before? Can it be injectors?

Please help!!

thanks daniel

 

Welcome, although I have no idea on what the issue could be, I have seen guys have this issue so there is hope. But at 203k miles, DAMN!! Let her rest man!!

 

Yea i checked around and everyone posted something similar so im hoping someone can help me. Shes a good worker though i have a construction business and she gets everything done.

 

Nah 2500 5.9 with 203K miles, Shes just a teen. Its got atleast another 200K on it. Id Test the fuel pressure, could be fuel pump.

 

HA.....I totally missed the "cummins" part. My bad. Let me move this over to the CTD section. PM sent also
