How do you change the fuel rail on a 1993 Dodge Ram B250 van?
There are two parts to the fuel rail, the driver's side and the passenger's side. The two sides are connected by a hose that bridges the motor toward the "back" of the motor as you look at it from the top. The following steps will get the fuel rail out for you: 1. Remove gas tank fill cap
2. Remove "doghouse"
3. Remove air cleaner assembly
4. Loosen and remove nuts (2 total) that hold the vacuum and electrical lines above/near the fuel pressure regulator (located at the "back" end of the driver's side fuel rail) the bracket that holds all of these lines won't cleanly move out of your way, but the wiring is flexible enough to move freely for 2-3" as you work
5. Disconnect vacuum running to the top of fuel pressure regulator
6. Disconnect electircal connectors that run from/to just under where the air cleaner sat (3 total) and mostly positioned on the center of the engine or driver's side
7. Take cap off of Schraeder valve (located on the driver's side fuel rail) and release the fuel pressure (make sure you have a rag covering the valve and press with a small screwdriver)
8. Remove plastic "v" clips on both fuel lines that are located just under the fuel pressure regulator (the line that is "higher" is the feeder line, the "lower" line is the return line). You can pop these out by using a small flat head screw driver. Slide the screwdriver in behind the "fat" part of the "v" clip and pry the clip out from the hose. Gently! You don't want the clip to fly out and get lost. It is a critical item since it locks the line in place and prevents fuel leaks due to slippage.
9. Take a shop towel and jam it under the feeder line and next to the engine block, gently slide the feeder line off. You will probably get about 2 cups of fuel out of the line, so be ready. Hook the head of the line off to the driver's side under another wire or however you can get it out of the way.
10. Remove the return line. Hook the head of the fuel line under the spark plug wires that run abound the back side of the engine towards the passenger side.
11. There is a bracket that sits towards the front of the engine and nearer to the driver's side. Remove that bracket. You will need two different sized sockets to get this done (9/16 and 1/2, I think). The two bolts towards the front of the van are 4" bolts (9/16 socket) and the one bolt towards the front of the van is about 1/2" long and uses the 1/2 socket.
12. The fuel rail should be fully exposed on the driver's side. Disconnect the wiring that leads to the top of each injector. You may want to take tape and write "1, 3, 5, 7" on these so that you can quickly reconnect the right wiring to the right injector. Grasp both ends of the rail and gently rock back and forth as you pull upward.
13. Once the fuel injectors release from the block, you will need to remove the fuel injector retaining clips from the top of the injectors and then wiggle the injectors loose from the fuel rail. Don't lose the retaining clips!!
14. The passenger side rail is more exposed and steps 12 and 13 should apply. You may have to loosen the air cleaner assembly on top of the engine block in order to allow movement and give extra room for the passenger rail to be lifted out.
15. Take qtips and dip them in gasoline. Using the qtips, clean the insides of the fuel rail holes and the spots where the injectors sit in the engine block.
16. Installation is the reverse with the following notes:
When installing the injectors, go ahead and replace the o-rings. It does make a difference. Commercial auto stores will sell them for about $2 per injector. Dodge dealerships will sell o-rings for about $15-$20 per injector. The dealer ones look like heavier duty, but I'm not sure if they are any more effective.
Place a light coat of clean, new motor oil on each o-ring (top and bottom of injector) and work in to the fuel rail. You will feel the injector seat in the fuel rail. It is easier to install the fuel injector retaining clips on at this time.
Once all injectors have been installed, position the fuel rail and installed injectors over the holes. Place even pressure on the fuel rail and press the injectors back in to the engine block. You should feel the injectors seat in the engine block. Finish up reconnecting everything.
Make sure that when you are placing the fuel lines back on that you slide the heads as far up as you can. You will see a small ring around the metal hose. That is the place that the "v" clips need to slide over and keep the line from slipping down and causing a leak. Once you place the "v" clips back on, give the fuel lines a pull in a downward motion to make sure that they are completely on and the clips are seated. Good luck!

How do you change water pump on 1983 Dodge Van with 318 engine?

How to fix a door that does not open from the inside?
Depends on the door, but if it workd from the outside, but not the inside, the problem is likely in one of two places. Either the Inside actuator is broken, or the rod connecting the actuator to the latch has been bent or come off. There are small plastic retaining clips that hold the rod in place and these may have broken or popped off. Either way you will have to take the door panel off and see where the problem is.
All "maxi" or extended length Dodge vans have the 127" wheelbase. The 127" non-extended model's extra length is between the back of the side door and the front of the rear wheel opening. The 109" wheelbase model has the door opening and wheel opening very close together.

1985 Dodge Van b150 procedure for checking igntion timing?
this is real fun. first get to operating temp then remove fan shroud and fan then power steering pump just set it off to side then use timing light to check timing you have to remove all this because you cant see the marks cause the cowl is in the way.
The blower resistor has probably failed. The connecter also likes to fail. They are located under the hood on the large black plastic housing on the passenger side. There are 4 wires in the connecter.
Depends on year. For pre-98's, remove the screws on the instrument cluster (don't forget the one under the glove compartment lid, and the one that you need to open the door to get to). There's three by the steering wheel that suck to get at.
Pop that off, and it's like.. right there. 5/16" socket necessary
Where is the external regulator for the alternator on a 77 dodge power wagon?
YOU MEAN THE VOLTAGE REGULATOR?
The voltage regulator is basically a gatekeeper that will shut off the flow of juice to your battery if the voltage goes above a certain level, usually 14.5 volts. This keeps your battery from getting overcharged and cooked.
They call it an external voltage regulator nowdays because newer alternators have them built into the alternator unit itself

Why is your 2000 Dodge Ram Van reading no bus?
The "bus" is the communication system between computers on the vehicle. "no bus" means there is a failure in the system. A scan tool, DVOM, and wiring diagrams are required to diagnosis and repair.

On the 1989 Dodge Van where is the fuse box and which one is for the Radio?
There are two fuse boxes. One is in the glove compartment under a plastic piece labelled "Fuses", the other is under the hood in a larger black box by the battery. Inside the second one is a tiny fuse towards the bottom-right. That's your power-off auxillary devices, such as the radio and courtesy lights.
How do you get a belt diagram for a 1986 dodge ram van with a 318 engine?
This may sound sarcastic, but have you looked under the hood, alot of the time there is a sticker with belt diagram and emissions information either actually stuck on the underside of the hood or radiator cross support.
Actually belts are pretty much self explanatory as to where they go on an engine. If you stand at the front of the vehicle where you can look straight across the pulleys you can see how they line up, and that is pretty much where the belts go. You must determine which set of pulleys is the first set to install the belt on and progress outward from there. A lot of times the Alternator and the air injection pumps will run on separate smaller belts which only fit on their respective pulleys. Your NEW belts will be close to or slightly smaller than your old ones, and you might have to adjust the various sliders for them to where you can get the new tight belts on. When you are adjusting the new belts for tension, there should be between 1/2" and 1" of "give" in the belts at their mid travel point or as close to it as you can get. The only belts I can think of which really need diagrams are the serpentine ones on th enewer vehicles, and MOST of them have the diagram somewhere under the hood.
