So im buying a 15 duramax with 119k on the clock and im concerned about the injection pump being a cp4...im not sure but the sticker on the door says 11/4 so im asumming this is the build date or there another way to find it ? if im right it does not come with the bosch updated ones that come in the 15.5 models now I know there are alot here that do not believe in tuners but I am going to tune it are there any here with ones with or without any issues with their pumps that are over 100K in miles?

Some aftermarket ones can be had real reasonable.Be a nice truck once you get all your mods done.:B

$1603 cp3 swap kit from Industrial Injection. I’d think bout it pretty hard for a high mile keeper truck with an early CP4. But that’s just from reading the Internet. No personal experience.

Or just buy a 15 RAM that has the Legendary CP3 pump plus a couple other Legendary items. :B

Truck is already on its way but as far as the joints , the ones on my last and first truck an 08 ext cab lb with 381k on the original joints with no issues but small amount of play and I just thought it would be a good idea to change them and when I did the new ones failed so im not to worried about joints with just over 100k on em but I will take care of it as the last one I did And far as another truck the GM product seems to be the best of both worlds far as the big three plus not that it matters but its the quickest and thats stcok too

I wouldnt run a tune on a CP4 truck without also adding a lift pump.

Any here know injection pumps? | Good Sam Community

Not too worried. Just look to see if you have vent/weep holes if you do there is NOT an issue.

The pump it's self does not catch fire.

I will try harder next time! I feel what I gave was simple solid advice. "Or just buy a 15 RAM that has the Legendary CP3 pump plus a couple other Legendary items."

Is one of those "couple other" items our water pump that can catch on fire? Has anyone had this fixed yet? I keep getting the no parts available yet story.

I'm a bit disappointed though that you haven't piled on the "GM ifs trucks have weak front ends" because you know, he only got 380k on it and snapped the replacements parts!!

Oh, BTW where did the Powerstroke in your FORD come from?

I am his Secretary so I will answer, it's Made In Mexico!

When RAM HD production comes to the US in a couple years he said he will be buying a new RAM with all major components and assembly made in the US.

Personally if given a choice I would pic an assembled truck with all major components from the US instead of a US assembled truck with a Mexican Made engine.
