Dodge RAM: Fuel System
Affects Dodge RAM · 1991–1992 — about 5K vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles equipped with intercooled turbo-diesel engines, the fuel injector pump fulcrum lever pin may break causing loss of throttle control and resulting in a full fuel level (maximum speed) condition. This could result in loss of vehicle control and a crash without prior warning. Correction: Fuel injection pump will be replaced with a new pump using a revised fulcrum pin and pin insertion method.
