dodge cummins vp-44 install complete.

finished the install on the 1999 dodge 2500 4x4 this evening. truck now runs better than ever! new "blue chips" vp-44 diesel injector pump= $1650.00, 2 new batteries = $210.00, edge 'juice w/ attitude' monitor = $719.00, new cummins cam position sensor = $63.00, oil,filter, and no 'silicate' prestone antifreeze= $95.00,new 'airtex' lift/transfer pump= $170.00. total= ? i don't think i can add that high! also added a "scanguage" for $158.00. that guage is money well spent if you own a vehicle newer than 1996. it tells you all the codes stored in the vehicles computer and also clears the "check engine" light when told to. it also computes m.p.g., cost per trip & other parameters. the guage is easily transferable from vehicle to vehicle w/ 1 simple hookup! (connects to the obd II port usually at the bottom of the dash, near where your right foot would be when sitting in the vehicle). some models may be different. thats where it is on a dodge cummins pick-up. this truck moves all the scultures i do, so its very important that 1- its runs and 2- its runs well! truck is running very well now. i also saved who knows how much money by doing all the work myself. i'd say i'm pretty well versed on how my trucks diesel fuel system works now. well almost. the bosch vp-44 is a poorly designed injector pump and should have -never- been used on the 5.9 cummins engines! my .02. the lift pump set-up is also poorly designed and seems to me all these ideas where just 'pushed threw' to get these trucks out on the market. b-s! thanks dodge! you rule. not. it sure is a quick 8800 lb. truck now.... yeah. saved a bunch doing it myself but now my hands hurt and have added a couple new 'scratches' to some good tattoos.... oh well.....
