Won't run over 5 MPH after STARTING ?

( Cranking is the starter turning the motor over )

Is there a check light on the dash?

Is it in Fail Safe & a light on dash,if so I would
be looking into failed ignition coils

If it starts & runs at all,not likely the CPS you asked about

Have you had it checked for codes ?
Do that & correct code related issues first.

Will run fine sometimes then cough and almost stall before it fires up again. it will continue to do this and cannot be driven. we have replaced the fuel system and computer

Had a bad crankshaft sensor go out while driving. Would come back in 5-10 seconds and drive fine. Everything else still worked but no throttle when it went haywire. This went on about 10 different times going about 50 mph. Ran codes at autozone that help narrow things down. It had 5-6 codes at the time. Picked that because I got lucky

Runs good then rough and stalls .Whit 5-10 min. runs again

If it's stalling out at times did you check the crankshaft position sensor? That usually happens to Jeep vehicles a lot for some reason or another.

Engine cranks, runs for 1 or 2 seconds and then stops.

Two items to check. The crankshaft sensor will reduce fuel pump pressure if it miscounts the RPM. The plastic strainer in the fuel tank can break apart and clog the pump intake in the tank. When the engine quits, the fuel pump is stopped and the loose particles are returned to the tank bottom.

In either case, try checking the fuel pressure at the test tap on the fuelrail.

Car runs for a little while then gets hot and slows to about 5 mph then let it sit then it start the cycle again

Check the codes, you should find that you need to replace the crankshaft position sensor and/or the camshaft position sensor. You can take it to most auto parts stores and they will put it on a meter and run the code test for you.

When truck hits hard bumps,it loses power,and eventually knocks off. getting worse, today it would run 35 mph,and be flat when you give it gas. but will clear up. mechanics here can't find problem. engine...

It surely sounds like you are confronted with a damaged cat converter. The o2 sensor is what triggers your ck eng ligh and it is located both up and downstream of the Converter. Won't hurt to have it chk'd. If there is a sulphur odor coming from the exhaust, The cat conv is bad. Good Luck, Ned

Van runs fine for 3 to 5 miles after startup then dies

Code 42 is the (asd) automatic shutdown driver,there is an open or a short in the relay circuit, and I don't have my manual to tell you where to look, have it checked.
Code 11 is no distributor signal during engine cranking.
Code 12 is battery power to computor disconnected in last 50 to a 100 cycles; memory standby power lost.
Code 55 is end of code output. These are what my code manual is showing. That shutdown driver should be checked. Hope this helps.

Car dies when it hits 140-150 degrees

I would replace the TFI ignition module and or the stator, these are the most common issues, you didn't say whether it had a loss of spark or fuel pressure, so just going on my 20 years of Ford dealer background.
