๐Ÿง  Cummins Diesel Tips Every Owner Should Know

๐Ÿ›ข๏ธ When should I replace my Cummins fuel filters?

Replace both primary and secondary filters every 15,000 miles to protect your injection system. The Cummins high-pressure fuel system is sensitive to contaminants, and poor filtration can lead to expensive injector or CP3/CP4 pump failures.

๐Ÿšจ What are the top red flags on used Cummins trucks?

Watch for head gasket seepage, crankcase pressure, excessive blow-by, or deleted emissions systems. Aftermarket tuners without supporting mods can strain the engine. Also check for transmission slipping on 68RFE models.

๐Ÿงช What fluid should I run in a Cummins diesel?

Use API CJ-4 or CK-4 rated 5W-40 synthetic diesel oil in colder climates or when towing. For transmission fluid, use ATF+4 (68RFE) or ASRC-approved ATF (Aisin). Always follow OEM specs to protect your powertrain warranty.

๐Ÿ’จ How do I improve MPG on a Ram 2500/3500 Cummins?

Stick to factory tire sizes, limit idle time, and use cruise control at 65 MPH. A clean EGR, properly functioning DEF system, and factory emissions settings deliver the best MPG. Expect 15–18 MPG highway in real-world use.

โš™๏ธ Which transmission is best: Aisin or 68RFE?

The Aisin 6-speed automatic is stronger and built for high-output Cummins (up to 1,075 lb-ft of torque). The 68RFE is lighter-duty and more common in 2500 models. If you're towing 15K+ lbs regularly, go Aisin.

๐Ÿ”ง What is the CCV filter and when do I change it?

The Crankcase Ventilation (CCV) filter captures oil vapors before they enter the intake. On the 6.7L Cummins, change it every 67,500 miles per Ram’s maintenance schedule. Neglecting this can clog your turbo or EGR.

๐ŸŽฏ What’s the towing capacity of a Cummins truck?

A properly equipped Ram 3500 with a Cummins HO + Aisin can tow up to 35,100 lbs (gooseneck). Standard Ram 2500 models with 68RFE are rated closer to 17,000–19,000 lbs. Always verify with the door jamb sticker or Ram’s tow chart.

๐Ÿ’ก Your Cummins Diesel Buying Guide

โœ… What makes Cummins diesel engines different from other diesels?

Cummins diesels are built with an inline-six configuration for maximum torque delivery, reliability, and simplicity. Unlike V8 diesels, the I6 Cummins platform offers fewer moving parts and delivers flat torque across the RPM range—perfect for towing and long hauls.

๐Ÿ” Are Ram trucks with Cummins engines good for daily use?

Absolutely. While known for commercial towing, Ram 2500 and 3500 Cummins trucks also make excellent daily drivers thanks to their comfortable cabins, advanced infotainment, and adaptive suspensions. If fuel economy and ride quality matter—especially in the newer models—you’ll be impressed.

๐Ÿ’ฅ How long do Cummins diesel engines last?

With proper maintenance, it’s not uncommon for Cummins diesels to exceed 350,000 miles. These engines are built with commercial-duty materials and tolerances, making them a smart long-term investment for anyone looking to avoid multiple vehicle cycles.

๐Ÿงฐ What’s the best year for buying a used Cummins Ram?

The 2019–2022 Cummins trucks feature the latest Aisin 6-speed transmissions, refined emissions systems, and high-output engine tuning (up to 420 hp / 1,075 lb-ft). Earlier models like the 2010–2018 range offer great value if emissions equipment is intact and service history is strong.
