Had ran out of fuel put gas in and it ran fine then sat for a few day's started it a couple of time's with no problem's the went to drive it and would not start again it has no power going to the fuel pump wiring at the plug under the chassey behind the driver's seat
Are you sure the battery didn't fail, these new sealed batteries do this excat thing, one min they are fine, then dead.

cracked fuel line sucking air bubbles? i have the same problem right now with my 85 ram and am about to replace the rubber lines out of desparation.
SOURCE: no power to fuel pump
What you need to do is drop the fuel tank and put a new fuel pump in it. I would drain the gas and put new gas in after you get the pump changed.
SOURCE: engine running rough at all times
sound like you cam to crank timing is off. if it was running ok before the repair double check the repair

Hello, I would assume this is your fuel pump inside your tank. I would first however do some basics like a general tuneup. For starters I would replace your spark plugs and wires, rotary cap and button and check your fuses. Run some injector cleaner through your system. You know quick simple cheap things before you get to the fuel pump inside the gas tank which can be kinda expensive. The warm up then dies can be caused by, "blownout or fouled," spark plugs. I hope this gives you a general direction in which to go. A sidenote is that coil packs do not normally run an igntion code and I for one do not like them becuase they are expensive.

Has the car been running one day and won't start the next and thats why you replaced those parts? This may be the distributor ignition modual later then when it is going out can act like its got demon in it. This modualator will shut power down to your fuel pump.
Now you can try something first though. Run a wire from a hot wire to the fuel pump and see if it will start and run while that wire is hooked up.
If it does then you can find a wire that only becomes hot when the key is turned on so the pump won't run all the time and only when the car is running. This is called gerry riggen in the service and not the proper way to do it. You may get an engine line on because of it too which will put the computer into trouble mode and cut your power down. But maybe not. Try it and see what takes place. If it still won't start then we need to look into testing the ignition modualator. Keep me informed and I will be glad to help you in the matter as well. Raz

Battery is fine, it seem's to either be a fuse (inline posibly) or one of the relay's, my porblem though is finding the location of the inline fueses, have a good manual but doesn't seem to show me location's.
We have no diagrams of the system electrics, sorry. Fixya will not spend the money.
As I said before I have no power getting to the fuel pump and having problem finding the inline fueses from the relay that control the fire to the wiring conection located under the van located just behind the driver's seat would like to know if someone has an idea where the inline fueses might be found? Thankyou
