 Description of the problemI have a 2004 dodge ram cummins turbo diesel truck. Around aug 14 2006 i had a fuel injector fail. The result is a crankcase full of fuel which exits the engine out of the overflow at the rear of the engine, this in turn causes fuel to cover the rear of the engine and underside of the truck. Again last weekend sept 17th i had another failure. I believe that the combination of fuel and hot exhaust is a fire waiting to happen. The dealer other than a warranty repair denies that there is a problem but on various web sites i keep hearing about others having the same problem. I think this is a time bomb waiting to happen that could kill or severely hurt someone from a resulting fire. *nm
