Post subject: 98 Sebring Coupe Fuel Pump Problems!!!!!

Please Help.

I have a 98 Sebring Coupe. The problem is that sometimes the engine will turn over but not fire. The fuel pump is not engaging sometimes. I have to wait till i hear it prime inorder for the car to start. Also, sometimes the car idles funny and will even stall when going at slow speeds. I have changed the fuel pump and various other senors for the pump. Last week, Crysler looked at the car and hooked it up on their computer and nothing was found--no codes or problems!! Does anyone have any ideas of what could be wrong?

Normally, when you turn the key to the on position, you can hear the fuel pump prime for about a second. WHen the car does not want to start, the fuel pump does not make any noise, hence it is not priming. I wonder if it is some kind of electircal promblem??????

Get some cum cutter or intake cleaner to spray inside the throttle body to
see if it will start, if it does start then cut off you no it is fuel
related/fuel circuit related<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

the reason i ask is there is some big time issues with the distributors in the 2.5 and it causes all sorts of run
and stall and no start issues

2001 Sebring LXI V6 Water Pump - I have been trying to figure out what transpired with my Sebring as I have never had one problem with it in 5 years. Took it in for a minor overheat at idle and coolant leak. They replaced as a maintenance item all the radiator hoses. Got it back two..

94 Caravan - fuel pump won't run - The van has been sitting for a while, but started fine 2 weeks ago. A few days ago it cranked fine, but the fuel pump didn't do the normal 2-second pressure up when the key was first turned on. I can get the fuel pump to run if I jumper the fuel pump..

88 LeBaron Fuel Pump Nightmare - I just had my fuel pump replaced in my 88 LeBaron....it ran well for awhile at normal to high speeds...but it would chug and quit on idle....now I dont even get that first hummm of the pump when the ignition is turned on and the car will not start....it....

96 Sebring Oil Leak? - My 96 LX smokes pretty bad after its been idling for more than five-ten minutes. The smoke is grayish/bluish. Anyone else had this prob?? Thanks!
