FAQ
Is this the same as the Cummins “Noise Isolator”?Yes. Cummins refers to part 3942659 as a Noise Isolator. This Interstate-McBee piece is an OEM-style replacement for that part.
How many washers do I need?
Order the quantity to match your valve cover fasteners. Check your engine’s cover style and count before purchasing.
Will this fit 12-valve (1989–1998) engines?
No. It is listed for 1998.5–2002 5.9L Cummins 24-valve (ISB). The 12-valve uses different hardware.
Torque specs?
Follow the Cummins service manual for valve cover fastener torque. Do not overtighten.
