Cummins boost gauge install

I am helping my bro in law install his gauges. Where does the boost line tap into on a 99 Cummins?

Re: Cummins boost gauge install

I've never done one on a Cummins, but I found this. 1999 instructions are below the picture. Hope it helps...

Re: Cummins boost gauge install

Boost bolt is the way to go.

Just be VERY sure not to over torque it. 12 ftlb max! This is not one to eyeball.

Agreed. I used the boost bolt - very quick and easy.
