Why does my truck crank so long before it starts? What is causing this problem?
What is your question?
I have put the fuel pump in the tank. I have changed the cam position sensor, crank position sensor, the FCA on the pressure pump, prv on fuel rail. New fan clutch. I have fuel pressure from the tank to the high pressure pump. This is a 5.9 cummins 24v. Long cranking. I also put in 2 new batteries.
What makes this problem better or worse?
It seems to start when it's plugged in.
How long has your 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 had this problem?
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2003 Dodge Ram 2500. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
Well, for starters: using Cummins diagnostic software and procedures will more easily help resolve this active concern.
My initial thought is - how is the lift pump working? Is the fuel becoming aerated?
I appreciate the repair attempts to date -- but you probably never needed cam / crank sensors for one thing.
