<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV class=RTE>Hi. The hall-sender controls the spark. I have the same problem and there's spark. The mechanic told me that the fuel pump might be on it's way to the grave. so, check for spark (when the problem occurs) by disconnecting the coil wirefrom the distributor cap, and have an assistant crank the engine. Keep the wire close to the cap, and you'll see if the spark is there at all. I just had the same problem yesterday, the engine quit, it would turn, but not fire. The mechanic used some starting fluid, and the van started on the third try, then kept on running fine. </DIV> <DIV class=RTE> </DIV> <DIV class=RTE> </DIV> <DIV class=RTE>Hector Zapata</DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>MSN 8 helps <a href="http://g.msn.com/8HMBEN/2752??PS=47575">ELIMINATE E-MAIL VIRUSES.</a> Get 2 months FREE*.</html>
