lift pump either quit or is now letting air in the lines if this is it it will need to be replaced fass makes a dodge direct replacement pump

or the filter has plugged again

crack injector lines 1,3,4 at the head and bump the starter but dont start. this will activate the lift pump for a 30 second run, when fuel comes out one of the lines tighten it and repeat process till these lines are primed...

Shodnt they already be primed if we drove it for 3 days after we changed it

Well that's not good lol

Do you hear the lift pump run? When you had the lines cracked how good was the fuel flow? Get a scanner and pull the codes out of it, but you really need to know your fuel pressure... do you have access to a mechanical test gauge?

The lift pump sounded like it always does and my buddy that as helping me said it started squirting like a sob after the bubble stopped but it still won't start so were just taking it to a shop

sounds like the VP44 just bought the farm. I hope he's a good friend.

Huh

Scan for codes and test fuel pressure... it will save your friend alot of money, bringing it to a shop is like burning dollar bills.... by the handful

We got it figured out last night it cost us 20 dollars tho had to get it towed to the house but there was air in the lines down by the fuel filter but thanks to all for suggestions

The o ring for the filter that came with the new filter was to big so we had to use the old one again but she fires right up everytime
