odometer stopped

Does speedometer work? if yes then speedo head is faulty

Is trip meter out also?

the speedometer does work. The trip meter does not.

Try this see if can get a fault code. Run engine move shifter through all gears ending in park ac on then off engine off. Turn key on DO NOT startthen off,on,off,on leave on check engine light will flash record codes and post so code 23 will be Flash-Flash-pause-Flash-Flash-Flash

will try that and get back to you, thanks

Ok, tried what you said. Code is either 1-5-5, or just 5-5, what does this mean? Thanks!

Code 15 fault vehicle speed sensor. There is a good chance a gear is broken in head. Are you able to remove cluster from car? if yes then do so and see if small gear in speedo is stripped. Options salvage yard or speedo repair see this site www.instrumentclusters.com/
Have attached pics of panel removal. Is there a low fuel warning light?

I keep gas in it since the gauge doesn't work,so the low fuel light doesn't either. Will see if I can find someone to help get the dash off. Checked the local junk yard and no 1990 Spirit, they did have a 93 Spirit is this or the Plymouth Acclaim (91)the same, that kept popping up too.

When get out if gear is striped from speedo to OD contact that site they will sell you gear couple $

Since I depend on car for work and daycare was hoping to find a car in the junk yard instead of ordering one and paying shipping too. I do appreciate the help.

Good luck on search

Doc, replaced the sending unit for the gas gauge since couldn't get the odometer fixed. Worked ok first month, now, especially when I turn left the gage drops to empty, fuel light comes on, the car sputters and dies. What is going on now? You were so helpful before.

HI
suspect instalation was not correct and assembly is not in correct position. Does this happen more when tank is less than 1/2?

yes it does. anywhere between 1/2 and under I get the problem. Someone checked the connection and said that was ok.

need to remove and check out there is a tube below pump to pick up maybe deterioated or connection lose sucking air

remove the unit? the tube should be good since it is fairly new. Can something be clogged? Why would it just seem clogged when turning?

In turn gas moves to side of tank if pump pickup not in baffled lowest part of tank it sucks air

my step dad says he will drop the tank this weekend. Is there something we should be watching for or will the problem be obvious? I so appreciate your help.

Was pump assembly replaced or just float and sender? suspect either pickup strainer fell off

I've been told that in this year car that the pump and the sending unit are two different things?? The fuel pump unit and the sending unit have both been replaced in this car. The sending unit is what was just replaced after the odometer quit working so I could keep track of gas.

What happened?

dropped the tank and the strainer was clogged. Replaced the strainer and put tank back. Filled tank with gas and gas leaked out the back. The gasket had split. Dropped the tank, replaced the gasket and all is well (knock on wood). Still need to think about that odometer one of these days, but this bought some time. Thanks so much for your time and all of your help.

Great news

Well, maybe still a problem. The car started to sputter after a few days like before, it hasn't died yet. Any ideas? Could something have happened when the gasket was replaced??

Bummer taped out of ideas seems to center around pump. Has EGR valve been removed and cleaned ie. pintel and passage ways?

I hope you still get on here, my 1990 also has stopped showing the miles I have driven I don't know if this will help you help me or not but I did the code checking thing and it gave me 1-2-5-1-5-5.
Please help if you still get on.
