Dodge 5.9L Cummins CP3 High Pressure Fuel Injection Pump

Removing your old pump
Note: Do your best to keep all components as clean as possible.
1. Disconnect the negative battery cables from all batteries.
2. Remove the intake manifold (above injection pump) and its hose.
3. Remove the 5 ECM (Engine Control Module) mounting bolts (located on the lower left side of the engine block towards the front). Do NOT disconnect the wiring connectors from the ECM.

Combined WAVE-VECTIS simulation of an intake manifold of V6 PFI gasoline engine

This paper describes the analysis of the flow in the intake manifold of a V6 gasoline engine performed using WAVE 1D engine cycle simulation program alone first, and then using WAVE coupled with 3D CFD VECTIS. The work shows how modeling in 3D selected components of the inlet manifold embedded within the 1D flow network leads to improvements in prediction accuracy.
The main purpose of this work was to improve the WAVE model of the V6 3.2l engine, scheduled for installation in the GTA version of the popular Alfa Romeo 156 vehicle. Moreover, this work was also part of a comparative study between two intake manifolds differing in shape and volume.

1984-1995 Honda Accord/Prelude Emissions PVC testing

The PCV valve is easily checked with the engine running at normal idle speed (warmed up). Gently pinch the hose shut, then release it; the valve should click. If there is no click, check for plugged hoses or ports. If these are open, the valve is faulty. With the engine OFF, remove the valve from the engine. Shake it, listening for the rattle of the plunger inside the valve. If no rattle is heard, the plunger is jammed (probably with oil sludge) and should be replaced. Never operate the engine without the PCV valve or with the hose blocked.
Don't blow directly into the valve in an effort to free the plunger; petroleum vapors and deposits within the valve are harmful.

2005 Ford Taurus Engine Controls Vacuum Leakage Noise Possible DTC's

Some 2005 Taurus and Sable vehicles equipped with a 3.0L 2V and some 2003-
2005 Lincoln LS vehicles equipped with a 3.0L 4V engine may exhibit a vacuum
leakage noise or lean codes and/or malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on. The
cause may be a leak at the 0-ring on the intake manifold tuning (IMT) valve.
ACTION
Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.
