Bob. Look. Up. No spark. No power to pump, the fuel pump would still have power it's shut off by an e valve

hey guys joe back here again. yes it was a natural gas/gas powered 3.9l v6. cng was disconnected by the utility provider who previously owned the van! i have owned and driven for 3 yrs,and was driving it when everything quit!thought i was out of fuel,added fuel and thats when i discovered no pump working,put 12volts to pump,it works and now no spark from coil!

CNG..eh, well there will not be a fuelpump, but a touchy high pressure regulator and special throttle. joedirt62 has just informed us that fuel is NOT the issue, but spark- Was it working normally when it decided to quit? open grounds do not happen by themselves as that would be my first guess- will have to anylize...perhaps a guru who's in the know about this lack of spark may chime in....anytime soon would be nice...

its a computer issue, had to replace mine a while back. Spent a lot of money trouble shooting and replacing parts before I found out dodge computers suck. Ordered a computer online, it took four days to arrive plugged in the 3 connectors, no problems since.
