Mine had similar problems recently
The wire for the temp sensor was loose
This causes the engine to think it is cold and keeps the fuel mixture rich
eventually flooding the engine
Is the van hard to start immediately after shutting off?
If the engine is flooding this may be the problen
Good luck
And post the year etc. of your van so we all know what we are dealing with!
