Question 3

What are the most common problems with the Cummins 3.9L engine?

Accepted Answer

The most common Cummins 3.9L engine problems are egr cooler failures leading to coolant leaks, turbocharger actuator issues causing reduced power, fuel injector problems resulting in rough idle, head gasket failures from overheating.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Every remanufactured Cummins engine from US Engine Production comes with a comprehensive parts-and-labor warranty backed by over 40 years of remanufacturing experience. Our warranty reflects our confidence in the quality of our process — every Cummins 3.9L engine is dyno tested before shipping to verify horsepower, torque, oil pressure, and overall performance. Warranty terms may vary based on the specific application and whether the engine is for a commercial truck, pickup truck, or industrial application. Contact us at (631) 991-7700 for specific warranty details for your 1990 GMC P3500.

Question 5

How long does a remanufactured Cummins engine last?

Accepted Answer

A remanufactured Cummins engine typically lasts 200,000 to 500,000+ miles with proper maintenance — comparable to a brand new engine. The longevity of your remanufactured Cummins 3.9L depends on regular oil changes, proper cooling system maintenance, using the correct fuel and fluids, and following the manufacturer's recommended service intervals. Our remanufactured long blocks are built to OEM specifications using all-new internal components, which is why they deliver the same service life as a factory-new engine.

Question 6

Is a remanufactured Cummins better than a used or rebuilt engine?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a remanufactured Cummins is significantly better than a used or rebuilt engine because every component is replaced or restored to OEM specifications. A used engine has unknown history and remaining life. A rebuilt engine only replaces worn-out parts. Our remanufactured Cummins 3.9L engines are completely disassembled down to the bare block, every component is cleaned and inspected, and all wear items are replaced with new parts — including pistons, bearings, gaskets, seals, timing components, and the oil pump. The engine block and crankshaft are precision machined to factory tolerances, delivering better reliability, longer life, and a stronger warranty than used or rebuilt alternatives.

Question 7

Will a remanufactured Cummins fit my 1990 GMC P3500?

Accepted Answer

Yes, our remanufactured Cummins long block engines are built to be a direct, bolt-in replacement for the original engine in your 1990 GMC P3500. We match the engine to your specific year, make, model, and configuration to ensure proper compatibility with your vehicle's emissions systems (EGR, DPF, SCR/DEF), engine management computer, wiring harness, and mounting points. When you call us at (631) 991-7700, our specialists will verify the exact engine configuration for your 1990 GMC P3500 using your VIN to ensure a perfect match.

Question 8

Do I need to return my old Cummins engine core?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a core return is required when purchasing a remanufactured Cummins long block engine. A refundable core deposit is collected at the time of purchase and is returned to you once we receive your old Cummins 3.9L engine in rebuildable condition. We make the core return process easy and hassle-free. The core return program helps us keep remanufactured engine prices affordable by recycling engine blocks and other reusable components. Your old engine core should be complete and not have any cracked or damaged major castings.

Question 9

How fast can I get a remanufactured Cummins engine shipped?

For commercial and fleet customers who need to minimize downtime, we also offer expedited shipping options.

We also perform compression testing across all cylinders, leak-down testing, cooling system pressure testing, and a thorough visual inspection.
