Product Description
MOPAR 05183245AA FUEL CONTROL ACTUATOR (FCA) FOR 03-07 DODGE WITH 5.9L CUMMINS ENGINE
Restore proper fuel pressure regulation and OEM drivability with the genuine Mopar 05183245AA Fuel Control Actuator (FCA) for 2003-2007 Dodge Ram trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins common-rail diesel engine. Also referred to as the MPROP valve, fuel pressure regulator, or CP3 metering valve, this OEM FCA is a critical component responsible for controlling fuel delivery inside the CP3 high-pressure injection pump.
The Mopar 05183245AA FCA precisely meters fuel entering the CP3 injection pump to maintain proper rail pressure, improve throttle response, support smooth idle operation, and ensure reliable engine starting performance. A failing FCA can lead to hard starts, surging, rough idle, hesitation, unstable rail pressure, excessive smoke, and fuel pressure trouble codes.
Manufactured to strict OEM Mopar and Bosch fuel system standards, this direct-fit replacement actuator delivers factory-calibrated fuel control and dependable long-term durability for both stock and lightly modified Cummins applications. Unlike low-quality aftermarket regulators, genuine Mopar fuel system components provide accurate fuel pressure control and reliable compatibility with factory engine management systems.
This FCA is commonly used on 2003-2007 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks with the 5.9L ISB Cummins diesel engine and cross-references multiple OEM and Bosch fuel system part numbers.
