    NHC250 Cummins fuel system

    We flushed it pretty well but I like that idea of using some sort of injector cleaner with fuel and shop air. Will do.

    NHC250 Cummins fuel system

    This particular rig must have suffered fuel contamination at some point and debris got passed the original stock cartridge. The magnetic screen in the pump and the screens of the injectors had collected quite a bit of contamination as well. We have drained and flushed the system and added the...

    NHC250 Cummins fuel system

    Thanks for the reply. There are mini high pressure inline serviceable filters available in low micron ratings from specialized companies. This particular truck that we're working on has a 2 micron spin-on filter added as a secondary after the stock original cartridge unit. All that along with...

    Timing pointer M.I.A.

    Timing pointer M.I.A.

    Hi, I'm new here so I hope this post is in the right place. We're in the process of getting a 1982 5 Ton Military truck back on the road. It is powered with the Cummins NHC250. In preparation for performing the overhead adjustments, we have noted the absence of a pointer anywhere on the front...
