1995 and before has a siphon port at the rear of the tank. 1996 and later has to be drained with the fuel pump, or by removing filler hose.

How do you replace a fuel pump in a 1993 grand caravan?

The pump is in the gas tank. On some early 90s models you could access the pump thru an access plate without dropping the tank.
Otherwise you have to drop the tank and take the pump out thru the top. If you do replace it, make sure you replace the filter too.

Fuel pressure regulator

Have you checked the fuel pressure? If it is high and fuel is not returning, the regulator is bad. If it is low and fuel is not returning, the pump is bad.

No gas going through fuel pressure regulator on 1995 dodge carava

I doubt the regulator is bad, the fuel pressure regulator is after the injectors in the return stream to the tank, more likely it is the fuel pump.

The a/c system does not cool. There is enough refrigerant inside.

If the a/c is charged good and the controls is working right I would say the air conditioner pump is bad. I would recheck every thing if it looks good and you will need to change the pump and recharge th a/c .

Fuel pump

The fuel pump resides inside the gas tank. You need to drop the tank and upen up the top to remove the pump. The car will need to be elevated in order to have enough room to remove the tank. Be careful as any spark created will be bad!
