real crappy service!

My baby cut off on me while returning from ny picking up a jeep with a bad trans on u.s.81 south heading to fla.i swaped places with the jeep(no reverse)and limped into harrisburg pa cummins to have a look at my fuel cutoff sillanoid they pulled it cleaned put it back in and it started right up then they told me i needed a new inj pump(re-man $1495.99) I choked a little and ask them why they said when they pulled the sillanoid they found "particles"i then told them that she runs and i just want to get back to fla safeley.
they said the trucks ready to go,so i paid them $180.00 and started heading south about 5 hours later she shut down again!
I popped the hood and noticed the sillanoid was leaking and loose!

i pulled it and removed the plunger and screwed it back in she fired right up!
the next day i called cummins ask them why they did such a poor job and did not replace the sillanoid they said"if i had bought a new pump it would have came with it".
i called cummings of ocala fl they told me the cost of a new sillsnoid is $128.00! 91 stock
