Are you having trouble with your 2006 Dodge Ram Diesel fuel pump?

How can you tell if there is a bad diesel fuel pump?

Have you been encountering any of the subsequent issues with your engine? If you are experiencing one or more of these issues, then you may very well be having issues with your engine’s diesel pump.

• Engine Won’t Run – When the engine’s fuel pump isn’t properly providing fuel to the engine, your vehicle’s diesel engine could fail to receive enough fuel, and will fail to run.
• Truck Difficult To Crank – If the truck’s fuel pump is losing it’s strength, but hasn’t entirely failed to work, you may discover that it is struggling to send sufficient fuel to the diesel engine while cranking, producing a hard to start-up truck.
• Lowered Engine Power – There may be many potential issues that would cause lessened diesel engine power in your 2006 Dodge Ram Diesel – one possible issue may be a fuel pump that’s going out.  In the event that the pump is not working efficiently, it may not be sending enough diesel fuel to the fuel injector system to provide the diesel engine the ideal power levels.  Because so many issues could cause a reduction in power though, accurate examination of the issue is critical.

Why do pumps must be replaced?

Occasionally fuel pumps stop working properly, most commonly subsequent to contaminated fuel . When this happens, your vehicle might encounter lack of power, problems cranking, or a complete inability to start the vehicle.

The following are typical reasons that pumps go bad:

• Impurities and/or bad fuel – Bad fuel pumps are most often caused by bad diesel (impurities in the diesel,) which can damage the diesel pump, causing them to stop functioning.
• Failing MRomp. The fuel pressure regulator is an electronic piece on the diesel fuel pump that will sometimes fail. Occassionally just the Fuel Pressure Regulator goes bad, and not the internal parts of the diesel fuel pump.  To troubleshoot if the Fuel Pressure Regulator is the issue, you should examine the Fuel Pressure Regulator to identify if it has any metal flakes or any other contaminants (trash, non-fuel liquid, etc.) within it, or near where it screws in.  If so, there is probably a larger problem that’s causing the MROMP fuel pressure regulator to stop working, and you should rebuild or replace the pump and clean out your diesel system.
• Blown out freeze plugs. From time to time the freeze plugs will blow out within the pump.  When this occurs, this means you have extensive damage inside the fuel pump. Fuel pumps with the freeze plugs blown out must be completely replaced, and the old pump’s core is not any good, so it cannot be exchanged.
