Did you check the idle switch at the base of the throttle?  (if your van has
one)

Hello Vanagonians,

For those of you who have been following my saga of cutting out , there is
no progress report. This is mainly because there is no progress!

Just to clarify- it's not grounds, air leaks, fuel supply power supply, etc.
It starts up, it idles, it cruises on level ground. it can't take
acceleration- if you push on the gas pedal gently or hard, it will buck-a
buck-a buck-a.
