[@jacksonworlock]

@@damonens9478 the vp’s themselves are not that bad. I’ve been running mine with a tuner on tune 5 and had no problems other than the transmission. It’s the fuel pump that is bad on them and with a fass, or airdog they usually last a good bit

This is just a suggestion would you guys be interested in doing a video like this for the ve pump guy and Dyno before and after but with injector upgrade and turbo upgrade just a suggestion though

[@MrWilliewonka69]

For the heat bulb delete you guys have. If you get ride of that the grid heater will still work. I live up in alberta canada and our winters can get to -40°c

[@pddofficial]

The fuel bowl heater was designed to prevent wax buildup and clogging in the fuel filter. With proper fuel selection and additives, we've never had filter wax-up/jelling down to -20F. Without additives, our local blend starts to have issues around -10F.

You’ve got to find a mechanic who is meticulous and takes pride in their work. Pretty rare these days unfortunately.

[@jaybrooks2502]

I have a 1996 ford f800 with a 12 valve in it. Would this modification effect the longevity of the engine? Looking for more power.

[@pddofficial]

Technically, turning up the power on any engine shortens the lifespan. However, when you're working with a robust 12v Cummins that will last over a million miles, well done beyond the rest of the F800 or any medium or light duty truck, it'll be fine. Yes these modifications will work and won't measurably reduce longevity. Keep in mind Cummins offers this engine platform for heavy duty boat use at 370 HP, so your 190HP or so F800 factory setup is detuned.

Just installed the injectors from your PDD 24v 475hp fuel kit. Not sure what went wrong but got it to start up and it runs rough. Rough idle and rough acceleration until you get pretty high in the rpms. I bled the injectors good enough to my thought but could air still be trapped in the system? Should i try to re-bleed them again?

Sounds like cross over tube not seated. Redo them and see if that fixes it. Please feel free to call our tech support team they would be glad to help you. 435-962-9555

[@JD-ub5ic]

Those push connect fittings are terrible, they always endup leaking eventually. Do you offer this with better fittings, such as compression fittings?

[@pddofficial]

What fittings are you referring to?

[@JD-ub5ic]

@@pddofficial the AFC live push connect air fittings. This style of fitting always ends up leaking eventually, any strain on the tube leads to leaks. They're used on air systems on vehicles only because they're cheap, but they're a wear component and always need replaced. Something like a compression fitting doesn't have this problem it's permanent. As long as you don't overtighten it the fitting won't leak, it'll outlive the tube it's connected to. Now I'm not sure how sensitive to a little leakage the AFC is, I'm sure you'd notice it on the gauge and just the dials adjust to suit, but the sound can be pretty annoying and it's an expensive part to be using cheap fittings.

[@Hitman-ds1ei]

Can't believe your working over injection pump without being capped in all my years that's a no no, but here you are making a video as a topic expert and no caps, oh well each to his own I guess but as a CATERPILLAR contamination control standard it would be totally unacceptable

[@pddofficial]

the purpose of this video is to teach and inform others on how to install Power Driven Diesel products, CAT has best practices that have to apply across the board, and it doesn't matter if they are in a dusty mine or a clean room. The best practices for one company may not apply to all companies. when I would do an engine overhaul on a Terex Finlay rock crusher I would steam clean the whole machine before touching anything internal and cap and cover everything as it came apart to avoid exposure to the environment. In this video its clear I'm working in a clean shop on a clean truck and the parts that need to be clean upon reassembly, are brake cleaned before installed. we love making these videos and love giving others the confidence to work on there own vehicles. we hope to continue in the future. but when we have comments that undermine our videos it makes viewers second guess their own abilities and therefor makes us all worse because people don't want to try and do the job any more for fear of being judged. Baron

[@kart1241]

Cummins clean care wouldn’t approve either. Service manuals and training are littered with clean care instruction. Good thing cummins isn’t paying for this work under warranty, leaving the owner to repair it however they see fit. There is a slight chance of clogging an injector, certainly no guarantee.
