I have to crank the motor over for five or so minutes until it will start. After it finally starts it runs good and will restart good but if I let it sit for a couble of hours then I have to crank it over and over again.

Hi:
Is the check engine light on? If not, I would start by checking fuel pump pressure. Many parts stores will lend or rent the tool. If you need to see how it's done, check out this video.

Let me know what you find. Also, could the van be in need of a tune up?
