What should the RPM be on a Cummins M11?

An M11 needs 195 RPM cranking to start, it should have at least 75 lbs, going quickly to minimum 140, fuel preasure, you want to test the fuel system while cranking for restriction, filter, fuel lines, ECM cooler plate, as will a plugged suction tube, all will give you a high resistance above 10 is a problem, with a new filter, 6 is max.

Why does my Cummins M11 have low fuel pressure?

This needs to be done with a bucket of fuel connected to the pump by/passing the ecm cooling base plate.Air will cause low fuel pressure but so will a bad fuel pump.You need the manual says 25 psi to start but all the engine i have checked will have 50 psi as soon as it starts and then to 100 real fast.

Do you need CPL for a Cummins M11?

If you call Cummins you can for a lot of the Cummins injectors, just buy a spring. You will need the serial and CPL. If the injectors were working there is no reason to replace them all. That is what I called diagnosis by the ripping and tearing method. It is very expensive

A local truck shop gave me an eaton inline check valve that i installed in the inlet side of filter.

What do I need to know about my Cummins Engine?

You’ll need to check for: Low fuel pressure: Fuel pressure is a frequently cited catalyst for engine starting and running issues. The best way to rule it out is to check if the fuel tank is sufficiently filled, then make sure the pump is delivering fuel and run diagnostics on the actual pressure.

What to do if your Cummins engine is not running?
