What can I use in place of "Hose Clamp Pliers number C-4124 " to tighten this clamp on my 2001 Dodge 2500 fuel pressure regulator?

I just purchased a 27 ft travel trailer with a slide. I have been told that my truck will tow the trailer with no problem. I would like someone with some knowledge to reassure me that I would have no problem. I do not want to buy the HEMI at this point if I don't have to. I will in the future (after paid off). The trailer has a dry weight of 6750 lbs. Tougue weight of 751 lbs. Any help would be appreciated. I have checked and it says the truck is rated for "7650". The camper is going to be at that or a little over once loaded.

The CPS itself was pain since the distributor is way on the back of the engine

I was wondering about the crankshaft position sensor and I might want to replace it as well. My question is the CKPS accessible and can I see it from the top?

Instruction states:

(1) Remove the air cleaner intake tube.
(2) Disconnect crankshaft position sensor pigtail harness from main wiring harness.
(3) Remove two sensor (recessed hex head) mounting bolts.
(4) Remove sensor from engine.

I can't seem see the CKPS. Is there something blocking my view to that CKPS?

Thanks. ]]> Ram Pickup / Ram SRT10 Slade901 http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=970332 http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=970160&goto=newpost Wed, 11 Nov 2009 19:05:51 GMT Hi, My ram 5.9 knocks under acceleration.

the Fuel injector pump cp3t might as well call it the R2D2 and return valve had to get replace.. fortunately still covered under diesel engine warranty, not powertrain 7/70k. truck has 77,600 miles.

about 3 months ago, driving on highway and engine hicupped. tac dropped about 3-500 rpm.. kept on going, about 1 minute later did the same thing.. great going to die in the middle of nowhere in the middle of night..
made it home didnt do it again..

air filter needed to be replaced so replaced it.. diesel mechanic told me not probable but can cause that is filter is comletely plugged up..

about 1 month later, did it again.. wow, just filed up and thought bad fuel.. so replaced fuel filter, about time anyways.. everything else looked good, got back to adding fuel additive regularly.

this friday had to do a quick job before loading up for a youth hunt.. well didnt make it farther than 1000 yards from driveway.. it just died and nothing would get it started. i could still hear the clicking from the fuel pump trying to build up pressure.. full tank of gas..

from the forum and others, fuel pump not likely culprit..
not experienced with diesels and hearing that injector pump is covered under diesel engine warranty, send it to the dealership and hope i dont get the short end of the stick.
