My car ran like a champ the day before. Never missed a beat. Has been consistantly maintained through Dodge.

The next day I tried to start it and all electrical worked but it would not start. My mechanic has replaced the fuel pump and filter (dodge parts) which is pumping fuel (looked like a blocked fuel line in the beginning) and has run a dignostic on the car with no warning symptoms. We have check all of the fuses for ADS relay, fuel pump, run/start run relays and fuses.

Even the mechanic cannot figure it out. Please help! I need my car.

Your mechanic replaced the fuel pump -maybe for a fuel pressure problem-did he bother checking for injection pulses and verifying the fuel pressure if its within specs. Now if the fuel pump and injector/s are okay-he should be concentrating on spark issue.
