Hey folks, I could use some advice.
I have a 2011 Ram 3500, 6.7 Cummins.
My new CP3 pump failed after about 125 miles on the truck.
I would like to know what could have been the cause?
Also... I can't get the pump shaft off of the gear.
There seem to be two plugs that look freeze plugs blew out. Gear is seized on the pump shaft.
I had replaced the injectors, common rail fuel lines at the same time I had replaced the CP3.
I can't get the gear off. I took the timing cover off to gain better access. I have special tool, ended up breaking a bolt on the tool.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
