CAUTION When draining the coolant, keep in mind that cats and dogs are attracted by ethylene glycol antifreeze, and are quite likely to drink any that is left in an uncovered container or inPuddles on the ground. This will prove fatal in sufficient quantity. Always drain the coolant into a sealable container. Coolant should be reused unless it is contaminated or several years old.

  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Properly drain the engine coolant into a suitable container.
  3. Remove the serpentine drive belt, as outlined in of this repair guide.
  4. Unfasten the water pump pulley bolts, then remove the pulley.
  5. Remove the alternator and side bracket.
  6. Disconnect the water pump hoses.
  7. Unfasten the water pump retaining bolts, then remove the water pump from the vehicle. Remove and discard the gasket. Thoroughly clean all gasket mating surfaces.

To install:
  1. Position a new water pump gasket, then install the water pump. Tighten the attaching bolts to 18 ft. lbs. (25 Nm).
  2. Install the water pump pulley and secure with the retaining bolts. Tighten the bolts to 22 ft. lbs. (30 Nm).
  3. Attach the water pump hoses.

SOURCE: 94 dodge grand caravan no fuel in fuel rail

Dear Ron, you have replaced fuel pump and fuel filter. You have checked the fuel pump relay. Still no fuel in rail. Try bypassing fuel relay with jumper from batt to fuel pump. If o/k then check computer for ground to relay. This system uses a relay that is operated by the computer that supplies a ground for the relay to operate. The wire color is green,16 gage. If the ground is not available then "no fuel" Check this with a test light. Key on and crank apply test light to ground wire and other end of light to ground. You should hear relay click and get fuel. If this checks out you will need to replace computer or get creative with rewiring the relay so it works without computer input. Good luck Moe
