• Recall 2004296 [Canada]: Engine
  On certain vehicles, the cummins engines were assembled using a pneumatic tool to install the boss plug, in which the air pressure was set high enough to create stresses in the cylinder block casting. These stresses could eventually create open cracks in the cylinder block or result in less than adequate clamping pressure around the plug. When the plug loses it's clamping pressure, it will loosen from the cavity, causing an oil leak. This leakage of oil, near the exhaust manifold and turbocharger has the potential to ignite and cause a fire in the engine compartment. Correction: cummins will install a steel cup plug boss cap which is attached over the boss/cup plug location with industrial sealant.

Fire involving 2004 kenworth t-300 tractor. Fire occurred on 01/15/05. Your recall number 04v580000 of dec 09, 2004 should apply to this vehicle, but kenworth said this truck does not because the vin is not on their list of recalls. This fire started at the firewall where the recalled harness p92-1993 was located, and the circumstances of the fire i believe match those which generated the recall. Please investigate as t-300 tractors not on the kenworht recall list probably have the same problem. *ak
