Default I am guessing bad fuel pump

Hi all. well here we go again..lol

Ok I can go out start the van and it will run awhile..then just drops on its head.

The problem,, no fuel getting to carb. I know it has fire..because I can squirt a bit of starting fluid and it will fire over.

I already replaced the ASD relay and the filter..so I guess thats about all left.

Did the key dance..got back 12 13 33 and 55..of course the first and last are common. 12..yes I did have the battery disconnected briefly.. 13 map sensor..I am guessing that is due to me having the breather off so of course some vacuum lines are disconnected.. ok the third one is 33 the a/c cutoff relay..I dont even have an a/c in the van..but it does have the relay. Anyways long story short..as I said the van will run a little while..then the fuel pump just stops. Then after awhile..it will start again..but same thing happens..it just dies again due to no fuel. So should be bad fuel pump..right? Cringing at the thought of dropping the gas tank.

Oh by the way..if you go to AutoZone asking for an ASD relay or even auto shutdown relay..they will be clueless unless they have actually ever looked at a Chrysler product under the hood. Told me it sounded like a dealer part, and they did not have it. Well they do have it..they call it a "Decelerate Fuel Cut Off" geez
