Default cummings diesel injection pump

hi all,

this is not a newell question but figured you experts would have an answer. a friend of mine had his electric fuel pump stop working on his coach with a cumings 300hp engine. the garage he had it towed to while he was out in it said after replacing it there was a 50% chance the injection pump would fail quickly at a cost of ~2k. his coach ran fine, but just wouldnt start when he was at a campground, so total time of trying to start it was in the minutes. that is the most the pump was running "dry" if you will.

any experience on this with any of you? i told him dont worry about it and if it happens, worry about it then.

when it happened i had told him i thought it was a fuel problem and was likely a plugged fuel filter, but at least i was close.

thanks

tom
