Are you having problems with your 2005 Dodge Ram with 5.9L Cummins Diesel fuel pump?

Indications of a pump issue:

Primarily, does the diesel engine exhibit these problems? If that’s the case, you may have a fuel pump issue.

• Engine Won’t Stay Running – If the truck’s fuel pump isn’t properly feeding diesel fuel to your fuel injectors, your vehicle’s engine could fail to receive enough diesel, and will not run.
• Engine Difficult To Crank – If the pump becomes weak, but hasn’t yet completely failed, you might find that it is struggling to send the proper amount of fuel to the engine during starting, resulting in a very difficult to crank diesel engine.
• Reduced Truck Power – There may be a whole bunch of possible issues that would produce lessened engine power in a 2005 Dodge Ram with 5.9L Cummins Diesel – one such reason may be a fuel pump that’s not working properly.  In the event that your fuel pump is going out, it might not be sending an adequate amount of diesel to your fuel injectors to provide your diesel engine it’s correct amount of power.  Because there are so many issues could be resulting in power loss however, correct troubleshooting of your problem is very important.

What is the cause of diesel pump issues in 2005 Dodge Ram with 5.9L Cummins Diesel Engines?

Sometimes pumps go bad, most often because of bad diesel . When your pumps fail, the truck may suffer from poor performance, difficulty starting, or total inability to start the vehicle.

These are typical reasons that pumps go bad:

• Bad diesel or contaminated diesel. Whenever your diesel is bad or has contaminants in it, it may clog up the engine’s fuel pump and result in it not functioning.
• Failing Fuel Pressure Regulator. The fuel pressure regulator is a small part on the pump that will sometimes fail. Sometimes only the MRomp goes bad, rather than the actual internal parts of the diesel fuel pump.  To troubleshoot if the Fuel Pressure Regulator is the actual problem, you should carefully examine the MRomp to see if it has any metal flakes or other contaminants (trash, water, etc.) within it, or around where it screws in.  If so, there is probably a more significant problem that is causing the Fuel Pressure Regulator to stop working, and you need to replace or rebuild the diesel pump and clean your diesel fuel system.
• Blown out freeze plugs. From time to time the freeze plugs get blown out inside the diesel pump.  If this occurs with your diesel fuel pump, this is an indicator of extensive problems within the diesel pump. Fuel pumps with the freeze plugs blown out will definitely need to be completely replaced, and the core is not eligible for exchange.
