Could be any number of thing's . Your best bet take it to a qualified repair shop an have scan data checked out .
002 Fuel System Tests Start Here
003 Fuel System Tests Scan Data Tests
048 Engine Hard to Start or No Start Scan Data for Starting Problems
Take it to someone who knows how to diagnose , not guessing or looking for magical fixes .
SOURCE: ignition module?
I had the same problem with my 1992 Transport. I fixed it by replacing the ignition module which took about 20 minutes, and should be easily accomplished by anyone with moderate repair skills. The problem with mine faulty ignition module was resolved temporarily by unplugging/re-plugging it from the computer (under the dash), or unplugging/re-plugging it from the distributor assembly harness. Every time I reseated the connector, the engine started up fine. I could also let the engine set a while, and it would restart. However, when it was decided to fail, there was no fuel being injected into the engine. This is logical since the ignition module tracks the engine RPM and sends this data to the computer to tell it how much fuel to inject. Check your fuel injectors when you crack it over when you experience the problem, and if you get no fuel, it's likely your ignition module. I think i paid 30 bucks at autozone for a new one.
SOURCE: after driving on highway for a few hours car died
How is the alternator on the car? That is what holds the charge to the battery.
SOURCE: I have a 1995 pontiac transport. I just had the
see if the crank position sensor connector is clean and tight, if the sensor or connector is bad, this will cause the engine to lose spark.
SOURCE: I have a Ford Freestar van and it suddenly stopped
it sounds like the transmission is gone out !
If you absolutely need
to drive the van without having it serviced ensure your coolant/water is topped
off prior to setting out. Make sure you have LOTS of water on hand to top
it off if needed and keep a very close eye on your temperature gauge. You
should also stop every few hours even if the temperature gauge stays in the
"normal" range to ensure its operating at the correct temperature.
There could be a few things wrong with the van, but damage to the
radiator or cracked hoses could be likely culprits.
That being said I wouldn't recommend any long trips before having this issue fixed.
