Hello,
For the past week, I have noticed when I would accelerate, my van seemed to "misfire", so I slow down and it drove fine. Was driving last night and as I was traveling up hill, the van seemed to lose power via gas petal. I continued to press petal and van just died. I do have gas in van but also run fuel to empty tank quite often. When I coasted to stop, I attempted to restart. When I turned key, it sounded like it wanted to start, but it wouldn't. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.

It sounds like the fuel pump may have gone bad. You need to check the fuel pump pressure. If you go to our homepage under the DIY section there is a video and directions about how to check pressure. The only thing you will need is a fuel pressure gauge. Most nationally recognized parts stores will lend you one.

See if you can check that and let me know what you find.
