Hello all! I am new to the forum. Located in Cleveland, Ohio. Purchased a 1993 W250 4x4 manual in November of '22. I have owned one other diesel in the past, a 2002 Powerstroke, but this is my first Cummins and I'm ecstatic about it. I've always wanted a first gen, so here I am. Now, I am not...

Alright, Screw it, I'm putting this in the Conversion build threads, because it doesn't really fit anywhere else. Spoiler: Its going on a 2013 Ford 350 Frame, SAE2 bellhousing, Eaton Six speed, Divorced 273F Transfer case (or three), I'm going to have to redo pretty well all the mounting...

so my brakes have always been spongy, and i had a blown passenger rear cylinder which ive replaced awhile back. Yesterday i was driving in the rain and noticed a big decrease in stopping power. I had to put the pedal to the floor, and the BRAKE and ABS light would come on. I got home and checked...

1992 D350 with an HX35W and 4" turbo back straight pipe exhaust installed new a few months ago. It's always peaked out at about 15psi, which I thought was to be expected on a stock truck. Today I installed a fuel pin and 3200rpm gov spring. Dialed in the fuel screw but need to mess with the star...

91 intercooled d250, I have been having issues with the battery not charging. New battery new alternator, and it died within 5 days. Once it starts dying you can jump it but it won’t charge while running so I’m pretty much screwed if I shut it off. Does the wire down below possible have...

I I have just recently bought my 1991 w250, it had no bed when I bought it. The wiring to the doors was all cut, as well as the rear wiring harness for the tail lights. I rewired the doors, got everything working up there, fixed fusible links, then I purchased 2 wiring harnesses (from tail...

So lately my springs have been hitting that one bracket on the frame, wondering if its just old springs or am i missing something? I would think there would be a stop there but I don’t know.

Hello all, I am swapping an NV5600 into my '89 which currently has a Getrag but have some questions about the driveshaft. From what I've found the slip yoke for a 2wd NV5600 is a AAM 1485 U joint and there are no conversion joints available for that size. I found a 1485 weld on yoke for the...

Howdy all! Ive had my 1993 W250 long bed for a while now and when I purchased it, it had a pretty dined up bed on her. The thing was spray painted, both sides have major dents, rear corner have rust holes, and a **** ton of bondo. The cab forward is mint. Unfortunately where I live no one is...

So I came across a hell of a deal on a 12 valve out of a 92 d350. I am planning on swapping it into my 99 ram 1500 sport. A issue that I’ve come across is the gauges. Is there any way I could wire a 2nd Gen Cummins instrument cluster to a first Gen motor? If so how would I do that? I’ve seen...

I have a 91 d250 non ic 5spd, and i top out at maybe 75 on the freeway stock. I was wondering what options i might have in order to get a better max speed and lower rpms if possible? I just dont want to be gunnin it the whole way. I have a THD pin and 3200 gov spring ready to install

(1993 D-250) So I’m back again with another head scratcher for myself. Driving down the road after I pulled out into traffic, maybe 35-40 mph. Truck “chugs” like it’s losing power even though my foot is in the throttle, does it a second time 4-5 seconds later and then a third time with multiple...

Hello to anyone who may be able to help! I have been working on a complete rebuild of a 1990 non-intercooled for quite a few years now, and I usually find any information I need, but I am finally completely stumped. I resealed the injector pump with a Bosch reseal kit that I found, all except...

Hey all new to the forums, I have been researching a lot and not much out there that helps me, I’ve got a ‘72 k20 with a first gen that is p pumped and bored .020 with mahle power pak pistons. I also have a nv4500 in it. I have the HC1 turbo on it right now and wanting to upgrade it for more...

Hey guys, so I bought the truck with no AC and I have had for about a year and decided I need to dive into it. For starters I do not believe it’s been converted to r134 as I don’t see new fittings. The AC doesn’t blow at all through any speed so I assumed I should get it to blow first then worry...

I have a 93 w250 that I just got as a first truck and was doing minor stuff for fuel like fuel pin a gov spring but after doing the gov spring wouldn’t start motor cranks fine and everything but there’s no fuel so I pulled off pump top and saw no fuel inside did some research check fulcrum rod...

Hello everyone, I have a 1989 D250 that is leaking diesel fuel from the top rear of the VE pump. Looking at a diagram of a pump, it looks like the part is called a “vent fitting”. Not 100% sure though. does anyone have any experience with a leak from this spot? It starts to bubble up about 3...

Hey everyone, I’m new here and I have a couple of cummins, I have this 1993, a 2003 and a 2005. I have seen a lot of 1990s trucks similar to this one go for some pretty large sums of money and am not really sure how to price it for sale. I’ve seen many in the 10-15,000 range, and I’ve seen a...

I have. 91.5 intercooled 12v cummins. Just started over heating a few days ago so I flushed the radiator and no luck, I then replaced the thermostat and water pump. Still over heating. No signs of oil in coolant or coolant in oil so I’m pushing out head gasket. Rad was blown out of all debris...
