I'd like to address a few items: 1) Fuel pump failures can and do occur with all the 2010 and later engines and can be prevented by replacing plungers/barrels/tappets (currently around $500 in parts and roughly 1 hour of labor) at about 400,000 mile intervals. The newer X15 engines (2017+) have not changed the pump design, they simply changed the oil lubrication circuit so that failure debris shouldn't contaminate the engine. The ceramic plungers were eliminated around 2013. It's highly likely (though there's no official cause) that excess soot in the oil and poor fuel filtration are the 2 biggest factors in fuel pump failures. Diesel fuel provides the lubrication to the pump plungers while engine oil lubricates the cam, rollers and tappets. With the elimination of the ceramic plungers the most frequent failure resides with the cam/rollers pitting and flaking off debris. 2) Engine and Aftertreatment life can be greatly enhanced by regular maintenance of the EGR system. A comprehensive approach to maintaining this system can be found on TH-cam and the web by searching for "EGR Tuneup". The basic steps apply to all engines, not just Cummins. Remember, the DPF is just a filter. It doesn't produce the soot. 3) Engine failures, such as rods through the block, can often be attributed to one of 3 root causes: ----- A) Neglect. Excessive idling. Failure to perform needed maintenance in a timely manor. Extended service intervals lead to excess buildup of soot in oil which acts like sandpaper inside your engine. Bypass oil filters greatly help to remove soot, but should not be used to extend oil drain intervals. Oil/Filter changes are best scheduled based on average fuel mileage. 5mpg = 6,000mi, 6mpg = 9,000mi, 7mpg = 12,000mi, 8mpg = 15,000mi, 9mpg = 18,000mi. Or use the formula: (AVERAGE MPG - 2) * 3000 = target drain mileage ----- B) High torque / Low RPM operation (IE: Lugging the engine!). Due to the shorter connecting rod length and inline orientation of the pistons there can be a lot of sideways force applied to the pistons/liners when operating under 1400rpm. The more torque being produced then greater the pressure on the liners (due to the timing of fuel ignition as the crankshaft rotates). Higher engine life can be achieved on an ISX by utilizing higher horsepower instead of torque within the 1500-1800rpm range. ----- C) Bad EGR deletes. So many bad deletes are out there. The ISX relies on EGR gases to fine control fuel ignition timing and intensity. 99% of the deletes do not properly compensate for this (among many other problems) leading to significantly increased internal stress and wear. Which eventually results in component failure.
My employer's mechanic tried telling me the ISX/x15's "arent rated for 2000rpm" and most drivers will lugg them because "muh fuel efficiency". The company is in the financial shitter because it cant keep drivers, and because +60% of the new trucks (all efficiency series) are in the shop waiting for new motors because the bottom ends shat out epically.
I have a 2016 Freightliner Cascadia with a 2015 IXS, as of today it has over 600,000 miles and only seen a shop twice(when I first got it(68,000) there was a gear that needed to be replaced and just recently the nox sensor.).I try to maintain the oil changes as well as any other maintenance and thus far I have no complaints about the engine.I appreciate the heads up.Great video.
Bought a 2012 w900 with 500k on it the engine had everything you mentioned in the video go wrong we removed the EGR and DPF system after we had to rebuild the engine put a fixed geometry turbo on it a new set of injectors and tuned it thing ran amazing got good fuel economy and never gave us anymore problems
Great job; one of the best I've seen. Really appreciate the time and effort put into the graphics, along with good audio! While these issues pertain to higher mileage trucks, it's still great for the motorcoach world to understand.
Matt, thanks for your input. Two regen a day is excessive. Depending on your mileage you may have to service the DPF or DOC. I would recommend getting unit checked out for proper operation.
You should stop using the DEF at the pump and only buy the ones off the shelf.Its a reason that DEF at the pump cost 2.00 a gallon and on the shelf at Walmart it’s 2.5 gallons for 13.00. Since I stopped using DEF at the pump I’ve only had 3 regen in the last 5 Months💪🏿
Mine was doing that for a long time. Had it at the shop a few times for it and finally figured out it was the DOC. It’s been regening every 36 hours on the mark since I’ve had it replaced a couple years ago.
yea I had all those problems on my truck spending all da money 💰 in the world to keep it running , until one day I was broke and my homie and I went to the after market store and bought the after market parts , my truck is running good after that thank God I was deep broke in debt by now I am back in track thank God....Cummins sucks after market parts will lift your truck up......
4:08 steel internals on the fuel pump will still fail over 400k miles. I had the ceramic bearings replaced and the steel lasted about 600k before I learned the hard way and it became evident that the pump was shedding metal. Oil pressure became erratic. Changed oil pressure sending unit. Good for a day then erratic. Cut open filter and it had lots of metal confetti. Opened up cam cover. Cam was also de-laminating, but not enough to account for the metal in the filter. Removed fuel pump and found that one of the the cylinders was completely deformed and the tappet mostly destroyed. So, I noticed the problem at 600k. Unknown how long before that the metal had actually started falling. THERE WAS NO INDICATION, no power loss, no fuel economy loss, no odd noises, AND the pump passed a pressure test before it was removed. The pump failure grenades the engine. If you catch it early enough, the solution is a complete rebuild including cam and associated components. Cost in 2019 was $18.5k. If you don't catch it early enough, you'll grind down the cam and anything else the metal filled oil is contacting until the engine breaks. The preventative solution is to replace the fuel pump head and tappets. Cost, $1800. If you have an isx15 and don't know the status of the pump, cut open the oil filter. If no metal AND you don't know if or when the pump was serviced, change the head and tappets if it's over 400k miles. $1800 sucks, but is a hell of a lot better than $18k+ The steel parts in the pump will fail. The pump's lubrication system is incorrectly designed. Cummins issued a fix to try increase oil pressure to the pump. It will still fail,eventually. Over 400k miles and you're in the red zone on the life of the pump (pump dies, engine needs rebuild or scrapped).
@@clintfipps7312 - it's not just peterbilt. It's a Cummins design issue. That fuel pump was on all cummins engines of certain years. There's probably little room for a lawsuit because OEMs worked with cummins (peterbilt, I know for sure) first did a recall to replace the ceramic with steel. Later, they did a semi-design fix by putting in a bypass valve to try and direct more oil through the fuel pump. I don't have that design change and even steel will fail in the fuel pump due to the poor design and the fact that the isx is a low pressure, high volume oiling system. Basically, the fuel pump head is just like a clutch, brakes, or shocks. It has an expected lifespan. The problem is that if you don't replace the fuel 6head and tappets, then you will be rebuilding the engine or selling your problem to the next guy. Unfortunately, unlike other "normal" wear components, this one isn't listed anywhere as needing replacement after X hours and failure is catastrophic. Cummins engineers are just stupid. That and 400k miles is after the trade in mileage of many volume fleet buyers, so those big customers never notice the problem.
i bought a used 2007 kenworth with isx. It had a longblock installed that was built in 2019. should i be looking into this fuel pump issue? or it may already have an updated fuel pump since it was built in 2019? thanks.
@@matinho0710 - cummins started making the X15 in 2016,from a quick search. So, they may have changed the oiling design or fuel pump for that engine. I'd try to find a mechanic that is familiar with both the newer X15 and previous Gen ISX15. Find out if the fuel pump is the same part. I have only driven an X15 in a pos rental for a short time and can't remember if the X15 is also a low pressure oiling system. If it is, even if the fuel pump is a different design, due to the low oil pressure (which is fine for the engine itself because it's a low pressure, high volume system) I'd probably not trust it for the fuel pump, personally, because of the headache, downtime and expense that the fuel pump cost me. When I say "low pressure" my ISX 15 runs at about 38 to 40 at highway speed and around 20 idling. Basically, the fuel pump, being mechanical, is like a little engine in that it has cam and tappets. The tappets are probably going to be softer than the cam in any design and a potential point of failure since the tappets will wear, shed metal, and eventually deform and frag the engine. I explained this to a mechanic who was used to working on newer (at the time) engines and he said, "ya, but the oil filter should catch any metal.". To which I reply, "It did... Except the filter is on the OTHER side of the engine so it only catches the metal AFTER it's gone through the engine." The ISX15 really isn't a well thought out design and I don't know if Cummins engineers got smarter when designing the X15. This is actually such a common issue, pump failure, that Cummins had to combine the head and plungers into one kit instead of selling them separately because they used 2 different part #s and if people tried to save money buying the wrong plungers (or if the parts guy or tech got the wrong part it would kill the new pump because of a difference in size. If you plan to keep the truck and aren't certain of the mileage or if the pump on you engine is the same, I'd plan to replace it. Keep in mind there is ZERO warning that it will fail. My pump actually passed a pressure test even with one tappet completely deformed. Cutting open the oil filter and finding shredded cheese sized bits of metal is a bad feeling. Taking off the valve cover and finding the cam has started being eaten away is an even worse feeling. Realizing I could've saved $18k (probably $20k nowadays) by spending $2k if it had been listed as an item that needed maintenance with a known life expectancy...was downright infuriating. Best of luck with yours. Also, it just occurred, if you don't have a mechanic familiar with both engines' pumps, you can try looking or asking on Rawze website, an invaluable resource for cummins owners: rawze.com/forums/
@WiFi T - I doubt many people will see your comment buried in the replies to my comment on the vid. What you describe could be several things. Take it to a shop that can pull the codes. It doesn't need to be a dealership shop. Many shops can pull codes, just call or Google around for a shop that has Cummins Insight software and can pull the codes. Even peterbilt, which is a rip-off, only charged like $50-75 to print out the codes. At least then you can take that info to another shop who might not have the software. Unless you know a mechanic that might see something obvious, finding out what the codes are is a good first step. The dash lights don't tell you crap. The way the lights usually work though, is that the light up when a problem is detected. If the problem stops being detected for a certain time period (10 hours with my truck), the light goes off. Incidentally, most trucks lose power when they are doing an active, diving regeneration because the turbo adjusts itself to create more heat and back pressure. Even more if there's a problem with the radiator or EGR cooler and engine gets hot which causes the fan to run, pulling more power off the engine. If something isn't right with the regen system, injectors, turbo, exhaust leak, sensors, bad or full dpf, bad DEF, clogged DEF filter or injector, etc that could cause the light to come on when the truck tries to regen the DPF. If the truck makes it through the regen, then the light will go out until the next time it does a regen and detects the problem again. DPF are supposed to be cleaned every 200k miles. I've never cleaned one because my truck manages to have some regen system issue that kills the filter around that time. If your system is otherwise good, the DPF might just need cleaned (prob $600-700 at the dealer). Or, it could be something else that's messing things up and creating other problems down the road. Or, it could be something besides the regen system. 900k miles is enough that the camshaft might be delaminating, sending bits of metal through the engine, or the fuel pump issue that I had. Could be lots of things! Check the codes, get a printout, clear the codes. Drive the truck. Check them again the next time you get a dash light and see which codes were happening.
@WiFi T - Your welcome. Although, if I knew it would've saved me some tapping! Haha I didn't do it because I'd read about it leading to other problems. Some engine tune file was killing ECUs for a while because it had a virus that people sharing it didn't realize. I hope you get your issue solved reasonably.
@@TATEXPRESSINC maybe a silly question: when you say 2016 and below, are you talking about the year of the truck or the manufactured year? Because I’m looking at a 2017 international manufactured jul-2016
The updated pump is shorter than the older ceramic versions. You'll need to get the lines and braket to make the pump fit. Cummins I think has a kit for that too. The new pumps also fail. At 250k have them checked you don't need to remove pump. Remove the cyl head and pull out the plungers and replace with new ones and a new cyl head gasket. What I've seen in our trucks is the pins that keep the plungers straight inside the pump body begin to fail. This allows the plunger to rotate in the cyl of the pump. That's a big no no. The bottom of the plungers have a roller that is meant to only operate in a fixed position. If it turns it wears and eventually fails, imagine going down the highway in your car then turn your wheels 90 deg to the right and keep driving straight that's basically what happens to the roller on the plungers. You won't get any codes till one of the plungers can't pump enough fuel and you'll get a low fuel pressure code, can't remember the code # right now. Engine will derate but keep running. DO NOT KEEP DRIVING because if it's the pump you'll be running on very contaminated oil and an eventual end to the engine. Also like a few have mentioned clean the IMAP, DEF INJ and regen Doser inj. We do it every 6 months. We looked at the EGR differential sensor and the DPF differential sensor those were ok . Hope this helps
ISX871, ISX152250, ISX152350. Except X15. Have a Crankcase filter that can be updated to a non-serviceable element. P/N 3691476. Love your channel!!! If it comes to a rebuild, you get Anti-Polishing rings to cut the carbon off of the top off of the pistons to prevent liner polishing and oil consumption.
I have a 2015 w900 with a cummins isx 15 & my fuel pump imploded. I have metal shavings in my oil pan now. I got a fuel rail light & before I could get it looked at, she cut off... looking for a new motor. Thank you Cummins

I’ve binge watched quite a few of the videos. It’s been 5 years since I went to school and just got a job offer at a Freightliner dealer. It’s been good to get some refreshers. Strong work for sure. Who’s the Airmen in the picture? :045
Good video!!thanks just one question? What is good on this engine? My 22 Cummins engine blow due to injector’s failure right on 33000 miles.still under manufacture warranty but they have avoided all the warranty and red flag the truck for nothing.I’m in process of taking them to court!
Can you explain why cummins oil pan has 2 plugs. The second sump has a half gallon oil and due oil change I have always watch that from this sump oil is dropped. My home shop refuse to open second plug (We never doing that). And by Petro or TA guys sometimes forgetting. Just what's the point for this curve?
Thank for the info I have a 2010 387 and it’s throw a rod through the block,but my question is the engine was replaced and now I have no cruse or engine brakes abs light stayed on.can you please give me some advice on how to get it fixed
Hey Adam I just want to know is it okay to buy a 2016 or lower year Cummins engine because after watching this video and other videos there's no clear yes/no answer apart from the problems it has?
Upgrade that fuel pump, I just had mine start going. My mechanic picked up on it with a #3 injector malfunction. The pump cost me $4,600 + $800 in labor. These pumps can be rebuilt. So if you have the red pump have it updated.
@@clintfipps7312 Thats when mine went out. But it wasn't showing that it was the fuel pump. It was throwing a code for the #3 injector. My mechanic advised me it was not it and recommended the high pressure fuel pump. He was right. These pumps can be rebuilt, and there are videos on youtube showing how to replace the ceramic bearings.
@@clintfipps7312 Also if your pump body is still red it is original. They paint the engine and all the attachments red after it is constructed. When I took my old one into the dealer they brought out the new one and I gave them my old red one. The new one did not have any paint on it at all. It was bare metal.
How do you compensate for EGR pressures when deleting? Looking at a 2013 isx that has been deleted but how do I know if it’s been done properly to compensate for egr pressures? After watching this dunno if I want a Cummins isx sounds riddled with problems.
Were we work we are specialized in detroit volvo cummins and multiple other brands only engines and i believe rods going the block on isx isnt from soot build up and more cummins cheaping out on the themselves mesure the thickness of the rods and bearings conoared to a detroit and also the size of the bolts also cummins has a shorter stroke wich makes it higher reving but puts lots of stress on the rods just what i think thanks for the info

Hey very helpful information, but I have a question what are the more probable causes of alot of fuel getting into the engine oil on these isx-15 engines. Thanks for the help.
I have problems with my cummin engine, is mixing diesel with oil in the engine, I already replaced the injectors and still doing the same thing, any idea what I can try to fix it ? Thank you
I reset the active and inactive codes on isx15 1887, 3714,3712. They keep coming back. Do you suggest to replace the outlet nox sensor? Or should I do some testing before. I was thinking of taking off a 16 isl9 and try on before I buy a new .
Sorry for late response. 1887 is an internal circuit failure on the outlet Nox, 3714 is derate code and 3712 is ATS fault. The outlet Nox would need to be replaced and then retested to verify repairs.
So don’t buy an ISX engine prior to 2017? Ligitimate question… currently shopping for a new rig, and I’m looking at the ISX engine for either the International Loan Star or picking up a Kenworth T680.
Try not to. It’s bad for any engine not just these

Yes indeed it would Silent Russian, We have these engines in Australia with no DPF just SCR currently, An oil bypass filter greatly helps any cummins engine from the CM570 and onwards, as they rely on 1 shithouse fleet guard filter, definitely get a bypass filter
@@TATEXPRESSINC I think what Silent was asking was if a proper aftermarket low micron oil filter bypass system would eliminate a lot of the soot which I believe it would. Here in Toronto Canada we sell an easy to install bolt on specific system that cleans oil to less than 3 microns and eliminates quite a bit of contaminates (we do oil analysis to to confirm before and after results). PM maintenance and low idle hours whenever possible is the key for after treatment system issues and always look for exhaust leaks upstream for regent issues first as this condition won't allow regens to reach proper temperatures. Thanks for the great work you do for the trucking community!
The video is really informative .I have Cummins x 15 and mine start without a problem even after 72 hrs of inactivity but does hesitate or won't start up sometime right after driving for 6 h or longer and shutting down for few minutes .it makes cranking noises but does not start up so we run a computerized diagnosis and ended up changing coolant sensor and fuel filters but the same problem persist. Any suggestions ???

Hi buddy, i have a 2014 cummins isx15 , recently did an overhaul with CUMMINS parts, after 9,000 miles it started to leak from the turbo manifold i dont know if it is oil or diesel, 99% when idling ! Have you ever seen some like this?
This really opened my eyes about the International trucks equipped with the Cummins ISX15 engine. What’s your opinion on this engine vs a MP8 in the MACK?
Hey I have a 2010 international with cummins isx, the truck was staring and running fine i did an oil change as soon I started at the shop it idle a little rough but I though it may got some air and it will go away but it being giving me problems to start, the rough idle never went away until I tie the top cap in the fuel water separator, but the hard time to start keep happening, like 2 days ago I crank it 5 or 6 times for over 15 secs and would not start I took fuel out of the tank and put it in the fuel water separator and It did start and ran fine any idea what it may be?

4:08 steel internals on the fuel pump will still fail over 400k miles. I had the ceramic bearings replaced and the steel lasted about 600k before I learned the hard way and it became evident that the pump was shedding metal.
Oil pressure became erratic. Changed oil pressure sending unit. Good for a day then erratic. Cut open filter and it had lots of metal confetti.
Opened up cam cover. Cam was also de-laminating, but not enough to account for the metal in the filter.
Removed fuel pump and found that one of the the cylinders was completely deformed and the tappet mostly destroyed.
So, I noticed the problem at 600k. Unknown how long before that the metal had actually started falling.
THERE WAS NO INDICATION, no power loss, no fuel economy loss, no odd noises, AND the pump passed a pressure test before it was removed.
The pump failure grenades the engine. If you catch it early enough, the solution is a complete rebuild including cam and associated components. Cost in 2019 was $18.5k.
If you don't catch it early enough, you'll grind down the cam and anything else the metal filled oil is contacting until the engine breaks.
The preventative solution is to replace the fuel pump head and tappets. Cost, $1800.
If you have an isx15 and don't know the status of the pump, cut open the oil filter. If no metal AND you don't know if or when the pump was serviced, change the head and tappets if it's over 400k miles.
$1800 sucks, but is a hell of a lot better than $18k+
The steel parts in the pump will fail. The pump's lubrication system is incorrectly designed. Cummins issued a fix to try increase oil pressure to the pump.
It will still fail,eventually. Over 400k miles and you're in the red zone on the life of the pump (pump dies, engine needs rebuild or scrapped).
@@clintfipps7312 - it's not just peterbilt. It's a Cummins design issue. That fuel pump was on all cummins engines of certain years.
There's probably little room for a lawsuit because OEMs worked with cummins (peterbilt, I know for sure) first did a recall to replace the ceramic with steel.
Later, they did a semi-design fix by putting in a bypass valve to try and direct more oil through the fuel pump.
I don't have that design change and even steel will fail in the fuel pump due to the poor design and the fact that the isx is a low pressure, high volume oiling system.
Basically, the fuel pump head is just like a clutch, brakes, or shocks. It has an expected lifespan. The problem is that if you don't replace the fuel 6head and tappets, then you will be rebuilding the engine or selling your problem to the next guy.
Unfortunately, unlike other "normal" wear components, this one isn't listed anywhere as needing replacement after X hours and failure is catastrophic.
Cummins engineers are just stupid. That and 400k miles is after the trade in mileage of many volume fleet buyers, so those big customers never notice the problem.
i bought a used 2007 kenworth with isx. It had a longblock installed that was built in 2019. should i be looking into this fuel pump issue? or it may already have an updated fuel pump since it was built in 2019? thanks.
@@matinho0710 - cummins started making the X15 in 2016,from a quick search. So, they may have changed the oiling design or fuel pump for that engine.
I'd try to find a mechanic that is familiar with both the newer X15 and previous Gen ISX15. Find out if the fuel pump is the same part.
I have only driven an X15 in a pos rental for a short time and can't remember if the X15 is also a low pressure oiling system. If it is, even if the fuel pump is a different design, due to the low oil pressure (which is fine for the engine itself because it's a low pressure, high volume system) I'd probably not trust it for the fuel pump, personally, because of the headache, downtime and expense that the fuel pump cost me.
When I say "low pressure" my ISX 15 runs at about 38 to 40 at highway speed and around 20 idling.
Basically, the fuel pump, being mechanical, is like a little engine in that it has cam and tappets. The tappets are probably going to be softer than the cam in any design and a potential point of failure since the tappets will wear, shed metal, and eventually deform and frag the engine.
I explained this to a mechanic who was used to working on newer (at the time) engines and he said, "ya, but the oil filter should catch any metal.". To which I reply, "It did... Except the filter is on the OTHER side of the engine so it only catches the metal AFTER it's gone through the engine." The ISX15 really isn't a well thought out design and I don't know if Cummins engineers got smarter when designing the X15.
This is actually such a common issue, pump failure, that Cummins had to combine the head and plungers into one kit instead of selling them separately because they used 2 different part #s and if people tried to save money buying the wrong plungers (or if the parts guy or tech got the wrong part
it would kill the new pump because of a difference in size.
If you plan to keep the truck and aren't certain of the mileage or if the pump on you engine is the same, I'd plan to replace it. Keep in mind there is ZERO warning that it will fail. My pump actually passed a pressure test even with one tappet completely deformed. Cutting open the oil filter and finding shredded cheese sized bits of metal is a bad feeling. Taking off the valve cover and finding the cam has started being eaten away is an even worse feeling.
Realizing I could've saved $18k (probably $20k nowadays) by spending $2k if it had been listed as an item that needed maintenance with a known life expectancy...was downright infuriating.
Best of luck with yours. Also, it just occurred, if you don't have a mechanic familiar with both engines' pumps, you can try looking or asking on Rawze website, an invaluable resource for cummins owners:
rawze.com/forums/
@WiFi T - I doubt many people will see your comment buried in the replies to my comment on the vid.
What you describe could be several things. Take it to a shop that can pull the codes. It doesn't need to be a dealership shop. Many shops can pull codes, just call or Google around for a shop that has Cummins Insight software and can pull the codes.
Even peterbilt, which is a rip-off, only charged like $50-75 to print out the codes. At least then you can take that info to another shop who might not have the software.
Unless you know a mechanic that might see something obvious, finding out what the codes are is a good first step. The dash lights don't tell you crap.
The way the lights usually work though, is that the light up when a problem is detected. If the problem stops being detected for a certain time period (10 hours with my truck), the light goes off.
Incidentally, most trucks lose power when they are doing an active, diving regeneration because the turbo adjusts itself to create more heat and back pressure. Even more if there's a problem with the radiator or EGR cooler and engine gets hot which causes the fan to run, pulling more power off the engine.
If something isn't right with the regen system, injectors, turbo, exhaust leak, sensors, bad or full dpf, bad DEF, clogged DEF filter or injector, etc that could cause the light to come on when the truck tries to regen the DPF.
If the truck makes it through the regen, then the light will go out until the next time it does a regen and detects the problem again.
DPF are supposed to be cleaned every 200k miles. I've never cleaned one because my truck manages to have some regen system issue that kills the filter around that time. If your system is otherwise good, the DPF might just need cleaned (prob $600-700 at the dealer).
Or, it could be something else that's messing things up and creating other problems down the road. Or, it could be something besides the regen system. 900k miles is enough that the camshaft might be delaminating, sending bits of metal through the engine, or the fuel pump issue that I had.
Could be lots of things! Check the codes, get a printout, clear the codes. Drive the truck. Check them again the next time you get a dash light and see which codes were happening.
@WiFi T - Your welcome. Although, if I knew it would've saved me some tapping! Haha
I didn't do it because I'd read about it leading to other problems. Some engine tune file was killing ECUs for a while because it had a virus that people sharing it didn't realize.
I hope you get your issue solved reasonably.

@@TATEXPRESSINC maybe a silly question: when you say 2016 and below, are you talking about the year of the truck or the manufactured year? Because I’m looking at a 2017 international manufactured jul-2016
The updated pump is shorter than the older ceramic versions. You'll need to get the lines and braket to make the pump fit. Cummins I think has a kit for that too. The new pumps also fail. At 250k have them checked you don't need to remove pump. Remove the cyl head and pull out the plungers and replace with new ones and a new cyl head gasket. What I've seen in our trucks is the pins that keep the plungers straight inside the pump body begin to fail. This allows the plunger to rotate in the cyl of the pump. That's a big no no. The bottom of the plungers have a roller that is meant to only operate in a fixed position. If it turns it wears and eventually fails, imagine going down the highway in your car then turn your wheels 90 deg to the right and keep driving straight that's basically what happens to the roller on the plungers. You won't get any codes till one of the plungers can't pump enough fuel and you'll get a low fuel pressure code, can't remember the code # right now. Engine will derate but keep running. DO NOT KEEP DRIVING because if it's the pump you'll be running on very contaminated oil and an eventual end to the engine. Also like a few have mentioned clean the IMAP, DEF INJ and regen Doser inj. We do it every 6 months. We looked at the EGR differential sensor and the DPF differential sensor those were ok . Hope this helps
ISX871, ISX152250, ISX152350. Except X15. Have a Crankcase filter that can be updated to a non-serviceable element. P/N 3691476. Love your channel!!! If it comes to a rebuild, you get Anti-Polishing rings to cut the carbon off of the top off of the pistons to prevent liner polishing and oil consumption.

Upgrade that fuel pump, I just had mine start going. My mechanic picked up on it with a #3 injector malfunction. The pump cost me $4,600 + $800 in labor. These pumps can be rebuilt. So if you have the red pump have it updated.
@@clintfipps7312 Thats when mine went out. But it wasn't showing that it was the fuel pump. It was throwing a code for the #3 injector. My mechanic advised me it was not it and recommended the high pressure fuel pump. He was right. These pumps can be rebuilt, and there are videos on youtube showing how to replace the ceramic bearings.
@@clintfipps7312 Also if your pump body is still red it is original. They paint the engine and all the attachments red after it is constructed. When I took my old one into the dealer they brought out the new one and I gave them my old red one. The new one did not have any paint on it at all. It was bare metal.
Great lesson thanks Adam

Were we work we are specialized in detroit volvo cummins and multiple other brands only engines and i believe rods going the block on isx isnt from soot build up and more cummins cheaping out on the themselves mesure the thickness of the rods and bearings conoared to a detroit and also the size of the bolts also cummins has a shorter stroke wich makes it higher reving but puts lots of stress on the rods just what i think thanks for the info

I reset the active and inactive codes on isx15 1887, 3714,3712. They keep coming back. Do you suggest to replace the outlet nox sensor? Or should I do some testing before. I was thinking of taking off a 16 isl9 and try on before I buy a new .
Sorry for late response. 1887 is an internal circuit failure on the outlet Nox, 3714 is derate code and 3712 is ATS fault. The outlet Nox would need to be replaced and then retested to verify repairs.
TAT Express Inc. Replaced and fixed the problem.

Would a oil filter bypass help with a lot of these issues?
Silent, it is best to update bypass valve if you have not already. Thanks for watching
Yes indeed it would Silent Russian,
We have these engines in Australia with no DPF just SCR currently,
An oil bypass filter greatly helps any cummins engine from the CM570 and onwards, as they rely on 1 shithouse fleet guard filter, definitely get a bypass filter
@@TATEXPRESSINC I think what Silent was asking was if a proper aftermarket low micron oil filter bypass system would eliminate a lot of the soot which I believe it would. Here in Toronto Canada we sell an easy to install bolt on specific system that cleans oil to less than 3 microns and eliminates quite a bit of contaminates (we do oil analysis to to confirm before and after results). PM maintenance and low idle hours whenever possible is the key for after treatment system issues and always look for exhaust leaks upstream for regent issues first as this condition won't allow regens to reach proper temperatures.
