shoulder progressed enough to endure the pain and get that fuel pump in, was a glorious sound…..that big V8 firing up!!! thanks to all the boys up here taking the time to help us novice wannabe mechanics, mike

 

EXCELLENT!!!

There's no better feeling and no better sound than hearing your engine fire for the first time after doing work to it. Job well done

 

Nice to see ya back after that fun with the shoulder! Still gotta laugh a little under my breath even knowing how it feels.

Glad to see ya going again and feeling better.

 

Congrat's on the repair and to anyone reading this next with the same issues I have recently found out kicking the fuel tank could get the pump working temporarily so that you can be sure that is your issue. If it is DON'T attempt to drive it in this condition. If it dies while you're on the road you're gonna lose your braking capability as the brake booster won't be working too well without a vacuum.

 

morning fellas, I really hate to be a nuisance but I bought an ABS sensor last week. the ABS and brake lights stay on and I roamed around up on this forum until I was fairly well convinced that I needed an ABS sensor for my 99 durango just like many of the other rides similar to mine up here with the same squawk. My shoulder is much better but still nagging at me like some dizzy fly buzzing around my ears!!!! thanks by the way for well wishes. would somebody please send me in the right direction under my durango regarding the location of this sensor? crawling around down there is a real beatch with this shoulder, thanks again Mike

 

The abs sensor should be located next to each rear tire but usually the speed sensor on the rear diff or tranny can cause the light to come on as well. IIRC the sensor on the diff is on the passengenger side near the top of the diff. The sensor on the tranny is near the rear and is accessible externally.

 

thanks mike i'll go that way first when i crawl like an old man under my ride, ya don't realize how important flexibility is until you lose some of it, mike

 

That's right. No jumping jacks for me.
