Three things are required for an engine to run: 1] Fuel/Air Mixture; 2] Compression; and 3] Ignition (Spark). Since you advise spark is present, and barring major mechanical malfunction we'll assume compression is also... which leaves fuel. The easiest way to verify a fuel delivery problem is to remove air cleaner and spray starter fluid or carb cleaner into the air intake and try starting with substitute "fuel". If it trys to run briefly, then you are not getting gas to the engine. Check the fuel pump fuses, as these can blow. The newer cars also have a impact detection device that will shut down fuel delivery if a frontal impact has occurred, but these sometimes are too sensitive and misfire from a minor bump. That would have to be reset by a qualified tech. If the fuses are good, you might need to replace the fuel pump, but check the wiring connections first. The Durango probably has a submersible electric pump mounted inside the gas tank, and they can be a challenge to change out, plus the new high pressure injection pumps are a little pricey for what they are, but if you gotta have it, you GOTTA HAVE IT!
Good luck with the Durango... Hope this helped.

My 99 Durango won't start.

If you don't know for sure, you will need to figure out if it is a no spark or a no fuel pressure issue to proceed.
If it is a no spark problem, check the ASD relay and the coil for voltage and ground signal.

What's your problem?I did all these changes to my 1999 Dodge Durango. They are distributor cap, rotor, wires, spark plugs, and pick up coil. My fuel pump is working I also check the alternator and it...

Check that the crank shaft position senser is plugged in and working and not broken this will cause your comp to not send fire to you coil and it won't fire hope this helps you

My 1999 Dodge Durango use to just shut down while driving and loose all power, now it cranks strongly but won't start. What's the problem?

First check for spark at any of the sparkplugs and if you have fire then check the fuel pressure.It should be 44-54 psi with key on engine off.If its not within these specs replace the pump.
