Durango weak fuel pump

220

Asked by Darksniper2135 Jan 27, 2016 at 11:37 PM about the 1999 Dodge Durango SLT 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 99 Dodge Durango slt with the 5.2l
v8. Since I have owned it I have had this
problem with it acting like it's running outta
gas at 1/4 tank. Now it's doing it at a half
tank. It revs high, low power, won't
maintain speed or accelerate. But will idle
ok.  If you Put gas in it and it runs like a
charm no problems. I'm thinking weak fuel
pump?
