SOURCE: fuel filter/pump

Hi,

To my knowledge, both are integrated in a single unit together with the fuel level sending unit, the float and a return motor. They are in a coffee-can sized assembly inside the fuel tank removal from the top. The big job is bringing the fuel tank down.

A temporary workaround on stuck pump is to bang on the bottom of the fuel tank with the ignition switch ON.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

SOURCE: 92 Dodge Dynasty wont start no spark no fuel

If there is no spark, then there is no signal to crankshaft position sensor. If no power to fuel pump, check relay and power to it.

If you are not getting power to either of them.Then igniitn module or ECM is faulty.

SOURCE: 92 318 dakota . wont start. i turn key, hear a

Pump does nor know pressure pcm energizes asd. Relay turns on pump for ten seconds to ensure pressure at injectors is correct for initial cranking try cranking engine while hitting tank and see if it tries to start if it does the pump is worn out.

Testimonial: "Thanks. i've had the pump replaced 3 X's in the 300k i've driven. this time the fuel gauge was going haywire just before it died. "

SOURCE: won't start, has spark at plug, fuel pump

OBD II DTC P0113 - Intake Air Temperature Circuit High Input

This code means that the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the temperature of the air entering the engine. The PCM supplies a 5 volt reference voltage to the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor. The IAT is a thermistor that varies resistance based on temperature. As the temperature increases, resistance decreases. Low temperature results in a high signal voltage. When the PCM sees a signal voltage higher than 5 volts, it sets this P0113 check engine light code.

There will likely be no symptoms other than illumination of the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL - Check Engine Light / Service Engine Soon).

A code P0113 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
Internally failed IAT sensor
Faulty connection at IAT sensor
Open in IAT ground circuit or signal circuit
Short to voltage in IAT signal circuit or reference circuit
IAT harness and/or wiring routed too close to high-voltage wiring (e.g. alternator, spark plug cables, etc.)
Faulty PCM (less likely but not impossible)

To solve it, first, if you have access to a scan tool, is there an IAT reading? If the IAT reading is logical then the problem is likely intermittent. If the reading is less than -30 degrees, unplug the connector. Install a jumper wire between the harness connector signal and ground circuits. The IAT temperature reading on the scan tool should be maxed out at the high end. For example it should be 280 degrees Farenheit or higher. If it is, the wiring is okay, and it may have been the connection. If it isn't install the jumper wire between the IAT signal circuit and the chassis ground.

If now the IAT reading on the scan tool is maxed out then check for an open in the IAT ground circuit. If you get no reading at all on the scan tool, it's likely that the sensor signal is open or the 5 volt reference is missing. Check using a DVOM (digital volt ohm meter) for a 5 volt reference. If it's there, then unplug the connector at the PCM and check for continuity on the IAT signal circuit between the PCM connector and the IAT connector.

Hope this helps; remember to rating this free answer and leave us a testimonial comments.

My chevy C3500 4x2 diesel crew cab is turning over but wont start i checked all the fuses do u think it may be at fuel pump r a line stopped up or a senser

You need air, fuel, and spark to start your vehicle. It may be the fuel pump, filter, fuel pump fuse/relay. You should be able to hear the fuel pump kick on when you first turn your key. Fuel goes to the pump, filter, lines, and engine. If it is getting gas, you need to check for spark. Spark plugs/coil wires, distributor, dist.cap, cam sensor, ect. It can be anyone of them. Check for gas and spark.

My 1991 lexus will not start when the ignition is turn with the key. The ingine constantly turns over without starting and preceeds to kill my batterie.

Well if it is cranking you need to see if you are getting spark and fuel.....Try turning the ignition on without cranking the motor....You should hear your fuel pump making a whirring sound for about 3 sec.and then shut off...If no sound from pump (which is located in the fuel tank) check the fuel pump fuse If fuse is good check fuel pump relay...If all checks out ok with fuel pump take into consideration when the fuel filter was changed last....I dont recommend adding fuel injection cleaner to your tank without first changing fuel filter...additive is designed to break up debris thus breaking up all trapped particles in filter sending debris through your injectors.... To check for spark pull the #1 spark plug wire and place it on an angle on tip of plug (allowing you to see if spark is present) have an assistant crank engine while you look for spark..... Do not hold spark plug wire in your hand while engine is cranked.... I hope this has helped you

My car wont start,you turn the key , and sounds like it's going to start but it just wont' i already take to the mechanic he had the car for about 2 months i get the car back ; he said it was fix and now...

FIRST GET A SPARK TESTER TO SEE IF YOU ARE GETTING SPARK AT SPARK PLUGS.IF NOT CHECK IGNITION MODULE FUSE.IF FUSE GOOD HAVE CAR HOOK UP TO SCANNER LOOK FOR IGNITION MODULE FAULT CRANKSHAFT SENSOR FAULT AND PCM FAULT.IF ALL LOOK GOOD SO FAR.CHECK TO SEE IF FUEL PUMP WORKING.CHECK PUMP FUEL PRESSURE IT SHOULD BE 41 - 47 PSI. IF NOT REPLACE FUEL FILTER STILL LOW REPLACE FUEL PUMP.IF FUEL PUMP NOT WORKING AT ALL CHECK FUEL PUMP FUSE AND RELAY.IF BOTH IS GOOD FUEL PUMP AT FAULT.BUT SCAN TO CHECK FOR PCM FAULT CODES IT CONTROL SPARK AND FUEL SYSTEM.MAKE SURE SPARK PLUGS AND WIRES IS GOOD. ALSO CHECK FUEL INJECTORS FUSE ALSO.

Turn key to start-engine turns and i have spark wont start

I would check fuel pressure so you can rule out pump. I had a bad pump right out of the box before. Also you may want to change fuel filter so you can rule out plugged filter. You have spark, sure seems like still no fuel.

Its not starting. fuel pump is not workiing we

The fuel pump is in the fuel tank. As far as testing it goes you will need a fuel pressure gauge and a test light. Connect the pressure gauge to the test port on the fuel rail. If I remember correctly on older Plymouths you have to tie in the pressure gauge to the fuel line. Make sure to tie it in to the supply line. Next turn the key on but do not start it. Check the gauge to see if you have fuel pressure. If you do then the pump is working. If not use the test light to make sure you have power to the pump.

1991 eldorado wont start

So you put gas down the throttle body and it won't start. Sounds to me like you either have NO SPARK or your plugs are already fuel fouled. Even with you supplying the fuel. it still wont start. FYI, the FUEL FILTER is located by the R/R wheel, and the FUEL PUMP is located IN the fuel tank. Hope this helps
