Not knowing much about the van, go over the complete electrical system. Check/replace:
. Battery--ensure it's fully charged.
. Fuses--use test light or multimeter to test all under-dash and under-hood fuses.
. Check for codes.
. Spark plugs--exact brand and plug no. that came with the van.
. Coil
. Spark plug wires
. Ignition Control Module

AutoZone should be able to check the coil and Ignition Control Module for free.
