Actually Dodge did start "side-hanging" their tanks beginning in 98. They moved the spare tire down where the tank used to be. I just wonder if it had something to do with rear impacts, but I have never heard of a Dodge or GM van catching on fire during a rear end collision..ala Ford Pinto. LOL!

when I had a counter guy at advanced looking up parts via the puter.We had to go back to like 81 to finds a non pump mounted sender unit.
IF Ford put a low pressure pump in the tanks to assist the manual pump.This makes sence to me.
I pulled up this sender unit on a couple of the on line parts stores and the same unit kept coming up.

Chevy made a clean break from the manual fuel pump to the in tank electric one.
there in tank pump was also a high pressure pump wich requited all steel lines going up to the throttle body.

Cherry,your van did look nice setting at Astros place/cave...

replaced the EGR valve and found a universal fit hose that had the spring in it that fit.
emission light is still on, no idea how to reset it. (no computer)

drove it to town, 30 miles rounds trip, some highway.. temp was fine the whole time, need to take it out on a hotter day and get a little more highway time, but can't get it to overheat at all yet.
