Well I was taking to the shop to have it checked as some suggested it could have been a bad injector and it was not that as it threw a rod through the block. I never noticed oil pressure drop either before the knocking and I checked the only 2 weeks ago however I did notice a new oil leak the other day. Anyways it is at the shop now and will will have another engine sometime soon. I will let you know how it all turns out. I looked at Cummins as they have a Cummins dealer here and they want 7K for a long block and 12K for a drop in and it could take a couple months as they build according to your ESN. I need this thing within the next 23 days as I am retiring from the Army and will be attending training in CA.

Man that sucks... The infamous cummins threw a rod. I'm been hearing more and more of this happening.

Good luck...$$$

Why am I not surprised that you would be the first to comment on this? Or that you have been hearing "more and more of this happening' Never one to miss a chance to bag on Cummins/RAM/ Chrysler, are you troller?
:R

OP, best of luck for a speedy and as economic as possible repair. And thanks for your service.

I don't worry about comments about the infamous Cummins all makes and models no matter how good have problems mine may have been a product of neglect or just the failure of a part no biggie.
