Good luck.... |
This just happened to me last night. Took out my BRAND Fing NEW hybrid 40 turbo. Literally. Brand new. I had just put it on. the turbo has 0 miles on it, and it now is toast.
Called autozone and an oil pump is $300! |
I'm surprised that these bolts aren't more of a known issue, yet everyone who has a Cummins knows about the KDP fix.
Go on ebay and you can get a like-new OEM pump for around $50 shipped. As far as my engine, no updates for now, because over winter break my friend gave me an insane deal on one of my dream cars (BMW E36 M3). I couldn't afford that and the Cummins rebuild, so that'll have to wait until summer, when I'll also be doing the axles and suspension. |
Upon further inspection of mine. It was not due to KDP or the 4 bolts. The oil pump siezed, and the motor continued to power through, ripping the idle gear, causing the cast plate to shear.
