Dodge Caravan fuel issues persist after fuel pump replacement on Dodge Caravan

Problem overview

Some Dodge Caravan owners report experiencing fuel-related issues even after replacing the fuel pump, including inaccurate fuel gauge readings, where the gauge shows full despite the tank being half empty. Additionally, some owners notice power loss during acceleration, which may indicate that the new fuel pump is failing to meet the engine's demands. If diagnostic tests reveal a faulty fuel pump, it is crucial to replace it promptly after disconnecting the battery and relieving the fuel system pressure. Owners should also check for wiring problems or other electrical issues that could be affecting the fuel pump relay, as these can contribute to fuel-related complications. Furthermore, some owners face difficulty starting the engine post-replacement, potentially due to low fuel pressure, a damaged fuel pump relay, or a clogged fuel filter. It is advisable for owners experiencing these issues to conduct a thorough investigation to effectively resolve the ongoing problems.
