Ran out of gas.. Where is the fuel pump shut off switch located?

fuel pump is bad, there is no switch. fuel pump overheated. The fuel pump uses fuel in tank to keep it cool.

maybe 4 gallons is not enough in that big tank I would consider say another 20 gallons before I looked for more problems

If this is turning over and sounding like it is not getting gas and with what you state as checked out I would go next to the fuel relay. If you ran out of gas you will need to reset the fuel safety shut off. Still may have to do that anyway. Check your manual for the location of this switch.

It is well known that--- Fuel Safety Shut Off Switches
are only on Ford Products & only open in an accident

May have ruined the fuel pump if you ran it low

There is no fuel pump reset. If ou rainout of gas you may have ruined the fuel pump. The only manufacturer that uses a resettable intertia switch is ford. This will only trip in the event of an accident to shut off the power pump.

more than likely burned out fuel pump need to replace unit, problem is it comes as a complete unit, pump and sending all in one. I have the same issue estimate cost $246 for unit and time if you do it yourself with some help, or lots if you take it to a pro.

Check to listen for the fuel pump when the ignition is turned to the on setting. You shall hear it hummm normally but i bet you dont. There is a fuel pump shut off switch that was on your model durango if im not mistaken, that shuts off the fuel pump in the event of a crash, or hard hit, or ran out of gas. In your owners manual it can advise you where it is located, usually the passenger floor, kick panel.

Hello rohoii.
Your Oldsmobile does not have one.
Ford has a "inertia switch" that is designed to shut off fuel in the event of an impact but no other North American brands are so equipped.
Your Oldsmobile fuel system will shut off if the engine stops.
Hope this helps you.

check electric fuel pump operation ( located in the fuel tank ). Occasionally a fuel pump will burn out when running out of fuel, due to the fact the pump runs DRY for about 30 seconds till the fuel stops flowing out of the injectors, the engine quits, simultainously losing oil pressure which FINALLY shuts off the fuel pump. Sometimes TOO LATE. Hope this helps

Does the electric fuel pump come on when you turn the key? It should make a buzzing noise for 3 seconds or so.
