Are you having trouble with your 2004 Dodge Ram Diesel fuel pump?

Signs of a fuel pump problem:

Primarily, does the diesel vehicle have some or all of these indicators? If the answer is ‘yes’, you could have an pump problem.

• Vehicle Refuses To Crank – If your vehicle’s pump is not correctly providing diesel to the fuel injectors, your vehicle’s diesel engine may experience a shortage of diesel, and will not run.
• Engine Hard To Crank – If the vehicle’s diesel fuel pump loses it’s strength, but hasn’t yet entirely stopped pumping, it’s possible that it’s struggling to send the proper amount of fuel to the diesel engine during starting, producing a difficult to start-up truck.
• Decreased Power From The Engine – There are many potential causes for lowered engine power in a 2004 Dodge Ram Diesel – one possible issue may be a fuel pump that’s going bad.  If the diesel fuel pump is failing, it might fail to send an adequate amount of fuel to the engine to provide your engine the correct levels of horsepower.  Because so many issues could be causing a decrease in power though, correct identification of the reduced power is critical.

What is the cause of diesel pump problems in 2004 Dodge Ram Diesel Engines?

From time-to-time diesel pumps stop working properly, most often subsequent to bad fuel . When this occurs, your vehicle will likely suffer from lack of power, cranking problems, or total inability to start the engine.

The following are usual causes that pumps go bad:

• Contaminants and/or bad diesel – Bad diesel pumps are most often caused by contaminated fuel (impurities in the diesel,) which can damage the diesel fuel pump, forcing them to stop functioning.
• MRomp Failure. The fuel pressure regulator is an electronic piece on the diesel pump that sometimes goes bad. Sometimes only the Fuel Pressure Regulator stops working, instead of the internal parts of the fuel pump.  To determine if the MROMP fuel pressure regulator is the actual problem, you should look closely at the MROMP fuel pressure regulator to determine if it has any metal flaking or any other contamination (debris, water, etc.) on the inside of it, or near where it screws in.  If so, there is probably another problem that is making the MROMP fuel pressure regulator to fail, and you should rebuild or replace the diesel pump and clean your diesel fuel system.
• Freeze plugs blown out. Occasionally the freeze plugs will blow out inside the fuel pump.  When this happens, this indicates serious damage on the inside of the diesel fuel pump. Pumps that have the freeze plugs blown out will need to be completely replaced, and the core is not eligible for exchange.
