Hmmm, well, you could have computer control of the injection pump. My
Dodge/Cummins is a 2003. I had to put 3 split ferrites on the injector
control cable bundle leaving the pump. That dropped my noise level from 20
over, to about an S2... I'll get to the rest of the system after the first
of the year, I still have to finish bonding the rest of the truck together.
Things should clear up after that.
