    I got some performance tips from a Cummins mechanic. The first two things were to set the valve lash 2 thousands tighter. 18 thousands for exhaust 8 for intake. We advanced the timing a couple of degrees. Those helped but next came a Banks exhaust and 16cm turbo housing. The biggest gains were the fuel metering pin and the 3200 rpm Governor spring. The 5.9 B engines were designed for industrial applications and so the Governor starts to cut back fuel delivery when it gets up close to the designed maximum rpm. You’re making less HP and torque at 2600 rpm than at 16-1800 rpm.
    Ran the early 250hp 5.9 Bs in duel marine applications and. They were OK but Smokey. When the 300hp version was released Cummins said they were too strong for us. I looked at the specifications and saw the only difference was a higher pressure fuel system and 200 more rpm on the top end. 2600 vs 2800. The weight was the same. That’s what went into the next boat and it made a world of difference. Also a cleaner running engine smoke wise. As subsequent models came out the horsepower continued to climb. RD

    Thanks again Tim for a great video for us hobbyist mechanics.
    A problem I ran into, that I hadn’t realized, was someone previously had done the “1/8 in timing bump” and my pump was rotated towards the cylinder head allowing for zero room to even see the back Allen cover bolt. after hours of scratching my head and figuring out how to loosen the pump from the timing case I was able to get to it. Unfortunately at this point I began rushing and missed your warning about the “top hat spring” …. It went flying…. I was actually able to make one from a pen spring and it seems to be working just fine for now until my replacement spring comes in the mail.

    A trick I use to break free Allen bolts is to use a Crescent Wrench. Stick the Allen Wrench end into the hole in the side of the Crescent. It won't slip out, you have a lot of leverage, and you can use your free hand to keep downward pressure on the Allen Wrench so it won't strip.

    He should also advise to change the Throttle Shaft O-Ring, as if yours is like mine that O-ring has been on that shaft for 40 years (1991 pre 1991.5). You can purchase the expensive ones or get the Harborfreight O-ring kit (must be over a hundred O-rings in that kit) red and blue boxes for about 10.00 each one metric the other inch. I hate leaks and don't have many. Tappet cover gasket, lots of parts have to come off to get to that. I will say, decent Garage has lots of GREAT videos of how to do things.
    Thanks for all your videos, my next project will be Ball Joints. There is also a way to reassemble without moving the power screw. using a piece of wire to hold the lever forward against the spring pressure. when you put the top back on. it works just need to be careful and not in a hurry and do not force anything it goes in real easy. That way I didn't have to worry about a run-a-way and once I figured out the indexing, it started right up and of course the indexing was off a tooth. fixed that and no issues. Again thank you for the videos they are so very helpful (and I know quite a bit about these old trucks) never too late to learn new stuff

    I'm midway through this process. One difference with a manual transmission the low pressure supply line from the fuel filter crosses over the throttle assembly close enough that it has to be removed to pull the assembly up off the shaft. On an automatic it routes around the throttle position sensor. You'll need a 14mm for the top nut and a 17mm for the bottom and avoid twisting the fuel line. I'm waiting on a crowfoot flare nut set to be delivered so I can continue.

Would the trans be okay with the upgrades or would I need to do something to the trans before all that?

    • @decentgarage
      @decentgarage  Před 3 lety +1

      Great question Blake. The answer is that your trans can handle any modifications you do, it is simply a matter of how you drive it. I could have 700 hp / 350 torque and as long as I drive it conservatively my stock transmission will stand a chance. Once you start hot rodding it or towing heavy you will run in to issues. I would say a 3200 gov spring and 50 hp injectors are fairly safe for your transmission though.

    Truck won't fire, just turns and turns. I've adjusted the indexing, pretty sure it's right. I even put a jumper wire between the FSS and the positive terminal on the battery to make sure the solenoid is open.

      Could be air in the lines but I've never had that issue when doing this. Make sure theax fuel screw was backed out enough so that it isn't protruding in to the pump top. This makes it clear the fulcrum lever. I would also triple check indexing. Also, did you turn the max fuel screw back in to where it was prior to pulling the pump top?

      I know with a stock spring it lines up with the second tick mark. Did you have to index your throttle differently with the 3200 spring, or are they similar lengths?
      Lastly, do you know which direction I’d have to turn the shaft to compensate for the length of the spring? Counter clockwise or clockwise (when looking down at the shaft)?

    I installed both Hungry Diesel Fuel pin and 3200 governor spring. After adjusting fuel screw, I was able to get it to started, but.....in test drive at higher RPMs, when I depress the clutch to shift (have 5spd Getrag), the engine rev'd up. Had to slow engine revs via braking. When I do not rev the engine, there was no problem. Any thoughts on what to do to keep the engine from reving up when I depress the clutch?

      I would almost bet that your throttle indexing is off. I would almost out money on it. Pull the lever off the throttle shaft and double check it. As you install the lever back on the to shaft make sure to pull up on the shaft at the same time so it doesn't come unindexed.

    I had to laugh because my indexing changed when I tightened the lever down and everything was reversed. Giving it throttle killed it and pushing it back reved it up.
