Thats a good point. I was looking at one from A-Premium. It's only $50. But, i don't want to have to do this again.

I actually don't know if these Dodge modules can be popped open to replace just the actual pump? I've come to believe this is not a terrible option if available.
Just like re-booting CV's most shops won't bother replacing JUST a pump because of labor time, but for a guy on a budget it's worth it. Plus sometimes aftermarket sending units are less reliable or accurate than used OEM

Had a friend work the key while I checked for FP sound and checked the relay. No sound from the pump but the relay clicks nicely. I'm going to go ahead and buy this fuel pressure tester because it seems like it'll have any adapters I might need. And it seems like a handy tool to have. But, it sure looks like I'm going to be replacing the pump. I did manage to find a
for a reasonable price. That ought to make Keith and Hey You happy.
With the crank/no start, no fuel pump sound, good relay, thumping the tank to get it to start symptoms, how much more testing would you guys do before breaking down and buying that pump? I mean, I can check for air and spark easy enough. But, I don't relish the idea of trying to get a multimeter on the power line for the pump to see if it's getting power.
