Bosch number 9-400-030-740 / 9400030740 is documented with both Cummins 3929410 and 3936330.

Key Functions
- Meters diesel fuel according to engine speed and load.
- Pressurizes fuel for delivery to the six mechanical injectors.
- Controls injection timing and cylinder-by-cylinder fuel delivery.
- Provides mechanical fuel control for the Cummins 6BT fuel system.

Purpose of the Part

The 3936330 is responsible for supplying each cylinder with a precisely metered quantity of high-pressure diesel fuel at the correct injection timing. Because this is a mechanical in-line pump, its calibration, governor settings, and timing are matched to the specific engine application rather than controlled by a modern common-rail system.

Issue Symptoms / When to Replace

A worn or incorrectly calibrated injection pump can cause hard starting, unstable idle, loss of power, excessive smoke, uneven cylinder fueling, or an engine that will not reach rated speed under load. Similar symptoms can also result from restricted fuel supply, weak lift-pump pressure, injector problems, incorrect injection timing, or air entering the fuel system, so those areas should be checked before condemning the pump.

Brand Information

Bosch began series production of diesel injection equipment for commercial vehicles in 1927, and its in-line injection pumps became widely used in commercial and industrial diesel engines. Bosch notes that in-line pumps dominated much of the commercial diesel market before distributor-pump technology became widespread.

Installation Notes

Injection-pump timing must be set according to the exact 6BT engine calibration and application. Keep all fuel connections clean during installation, and do not transfer timing or governor settings from another visually similar Bosch A-pump unless the complete pump and engine numbers match.

How to Identify an OEM Part

A genuine 3936330 should be identified by the Bosch factory identification data on the injection pump, including the complete Bosch number 9-400-030-740 / 9400030740. Match the full Bosch and Cummins numbers rather than relying only on the general PES6A-RS2881 pump-family designation.
