You need to check for fault codes in the engine control modules memory, you will need an OBD2 scanner.

SOURCE: 2000 Dodge Durango Won't Start

You might want to Check electronic sensors, like would you start with the idle control sensors.Also Try tot urn the ignition key to the point just before the engine starts to turn over And leave the key in the that position. If the fuel pump is located inside the gas tank,remove the gas cap & listen for a "whirring" sound. This sound means your electronic pumping is working.

SOURCE: 2001 Xterra - Replaced fuel pump twice and is still not running.

I am no expert, but I just had a similar problem. The car would shake and buck when accelerating. It finally just died and would not start. After sitting for some time, the car would start and run a while, then do the same thing. I thought fuel pump. The dealer diagnosed distributor. After replacing, the car is running perfect. Something to think about. Good luck.

SOURCE: 1991 Mazda 626 DX dies suddenly after running for 10 minutes.

Hello, It sounds like an engine ignition control module gone out or a coil. They get hot and quit working after a short period of time, cool off then work again till they get hot.
Is the ignition system pointless electronic or does it have points? Are you getting any fire at all now to the cylinders? Does the tach in the vehicle show any RPM's during cranking? Do you have voltage at the positive side of the ignition coil? Does the coil meet the ohm ratings for that years vehicle ignition? Does the vehicle have oil in it so the oil pressure sensor allows the engine to run, this may not be an option on your particular vehicle? You can check most of this out with a volt/ohm meter. Check your voltages before starting the vehicle, during running and after it quits to see where the loss is. Just don't get near the center tap of the coil or you will get a rude awakening and/or serious injury. Good luck, RAC

Dodge durango takes 2-3 tries before starting what causes that? i had a computer put on it but the only code i get is 0601 any suggestions?

Sounds like fuel pressure is bleeding off. It is not uncommon for this to happen on chrysler vehicles with your style fuel pump module.

The first thing i would do is check fuel pressure with a fuel pressure gauge. The will be a test port on the fuel rail. You should see roughly 50 psi of pressure and it should hold pressure with the key off. If fuel pressure drops the regulator is bad and the fuel pump assembly in the fuel tank will need to be replaced. this will require dropping the fuel tank from the vehicle.

I have a 2001 dodge durango. when istart it in the morning it cranks excessively until it starts.if i than shut it off it will start right back up,but if i let it sit for a few minutes it cranks but wont...

This may be due to the fuel pump pressure check valve being defective. When the valve malfunctions it allows fuel to drain back out of the fuel line, then you must purge the line of air and fill it with pressurized fuel, this takes a few moments and this causes abnormally long crank times before the engine starts. I think on your truck the pressure check valve is on the top of the fuel tank, if not it is inside the fuel tank and part of the fuel pump module assembly, any parts store like NAPA or Carquest can look this up for you and find out if you can just replace the pressure check valve and not the whole pump module which is quite expensive.

I have a 2001 durango it turning over a lot befor starting

If this extended crank time is after it sits for a while. The fuel pump could be bleeding back and it takes time to prime the fuel rail again. easy to verify put a fuel pressure gauge on get it started, when you shut it off the pressure should hold. Hope this helps

2001 dodge durango, when the weather is real cold

have the ECT checked,
Engine coolant temperature,lets the computer know whether it should push more fuel thru for cold mornings ,
the sensor could be telling the computer that your engine temp is 75 degrees,means less fuel being pushed

Loacte the fuel filter on 2000 dodge durango 4.7 liter v8

if i am not mistaken the fuel filter is built into the fuel pump. which requires you to drop the tank and replace both.
