Asked by PreacherDave May 19, 2017 at 05:33 PM about the 1998 Dodge RAM 2500 ST LB 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have spent a week trying to find out what is wrong with my fuel pump.  It
doesn't seem to be getting power.  It was working fine. I went in the store,
and when I came out it wouldn't start.  I have spark, and it will start with
starting fluid.  I have checked all the fuses, relays, and grounds.  i'm getting
frustrated, so someone gave me the idea of an inline electric pump.  Will it
work in a 5.9 gas engine?

so theres no power at the fuel tank/pump ? did you try and follow where it has power? a inline pump wont work...if you jump the pump with 12 volts it runs right? if the pump is ok/does run...you could tap into another switched power sorce .....

My Dodge diesel 6.7 was running good and when I came home from work, shut off and 2 hours later I went to start and the engine turns over, but will not start. I thought it was a fuel problem, so loosen injector and turned over and had fuel. I tried to run engine analyses and nothing. It appears there the electrical has shut down, but the engine still turns over. Are the fuel injectors electrically pulsed or by pressure form pump? The only thing that come up is check gauges. No engine light at all. 2 Answers
