My dad used to have a side hustle when I was a kid wrenching on cars and selling them, and as he got older he found ways to make his efforts more comfortable lol. I had a 99 5.9 I bought from him, was the 5th wheel hauler growing up and been my dream truck. So when I bought it and started working on it id use his experience for help and every time I'd take it over he'd say " this is the last time I'm working on this damn thing" but we all know you can't take the mechanic out of the dad lol, to this day he loves working on my stuff with me and we have a blast doing it. I have an 06 2500 5.9 now with an original cp3 but now I know how to tackle it when she goes. Thank you for the content!
Hey Morgan... I'm glad that you describe your research into this procedure before you even started the removal. Finding the other folks that throw down the caution flag about losing a bolt or washer is good preparation for the job to go smoother. But then there's always something unexpected that pops up...in cramped quarters 😖 Good plastic repair 👍
I changed my fuel filter and went to start the truck following priming procedures for an 04 truck. Long story short, after replacing the lift pump, replacing a starter that i burnt up, testing the battery voltages, and draining-refilling filter housing with diesel, all thats left is this cp3 pump.
@@4AM_DJ sorry to hear that. I looked after a fleet of these trucks, never had any problems restarting after a filter change. I would change the filter, cycle the key a few times and they would fire right up. I’ve never had to do it but there must be a way to check the pressure.
Big bad diesel. The elusive nut or bolts that find away to go missing. Don’t know if you have ever used magnets from a microwave magnetron there’s two very powerful magnets that can be easily removed. I service microwaves so I have excess to them. They are wonderful for solving this problem. 👍😄
Sounds like you have access to an excessive amount of magnetron magnets...😂👍 I've heard a lot from a friend that they are very powerful and many people are throwing away old microwave ovens...i think it's about time i get one of those and open it up...🔧
Sounds like I've been missing a good pert or two! Over the years I've harvested several transformers, blowers/motors and wiring. But always left the magnetrons alone... doh🤦♂️
Nice job Morgan, the heat and vibration is hard on those plastic covers. I used to have an 06' Ram Cummins with a 6 speed manual. I'm currently running a 17" Ram Cummins. Great trucks. How's the tig welding going?
I can’t remember what I did but you could put a wrench on the crank to stop the engine from turning. Come to think of it, if you are replacing a p pump I don’t think it’s timed like a mechanical injection pump so it wouldn’t matter if it turned a bit. I don’t do a lot of these so maybe I’m not the best guy to ask.
I’ve been swamped with repair work so haven’t had much time but I’ve had some success with the TIG welding. My son will be working with me soon so I’ll have more time.
The truck I was working on is indeed a 2006 so yes it will be the same. It’s actually a pretty easy part to replace. One thing I didn’t show is on a truck with an automatic, you have to put a wrench on the front of the crank to keep the engine from turning when loosening or tightening the pump shaft nut.

I miss my dad at times, haven’t seen him going on 4 years

Hopefully you’ve saved someone from a big “oops” with your helpful tip! Success!
awesome video morgan ,peace an love from scotland stu an family.
Nice job Morgan. You're absolutely right. There is some good stuff on you tube but there's also a lot of worthless stuff on there too.

Looks like a job well done👍🏻
Did you take the gear out or did it stay in place
The gear stays
Sounds like you did a good job it's running
It’s always nice when they run, especially after popping 5 grand in parts.

A good magnet can be a mechanics best friend sometimes

No time for tig welding practice lately but my son will be working with me soon so that will help
It’s alive 👍👍
Thank you for videoing. 👍🐝🌞
im doing mine while im replacing the radiator i think that will make a lot of room for festivitys
I’m not worried about losing the nut and washer . I’m worried that I can’t get the nut to come loose without turning the pump ??… 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Any ideas ?

@@WildWestGarage at least you answered. It’s worth a shot. I figured it had to be turning the whole engine. That was a help.
Good to see you Morgan! How’s the tig welding coming along?

Better you than me working on diesel tractors yes trucks 👎. I can’t twist around anymore with my arms.Great job Morgan stay safe bro
Good job, man's gotta work so the family can eat. Practice your tig welding. 👍🙃
Nice work. Isn’t that a 2006? 2005 have the bubble head lights
Your right, it’s a 09 05 and it scans as a 06
Dunno if my 2006 has the same pump,but lm putting this video in my playlist so if l have to replace my pump....well my pal Morgan can help me!
