No fuel from tank to engine, drove home after purchase at auction. Stopped twice to refuel, engine started and ran fine each time. Got home, parked overnight, went to start the next day. Will not run. Tries to turn over, but is starving for fuel., Fuel is not being transferred to engine spraying starting fluid into engine will start the van, but it will not stay running

If the engine started then it 's probably the pump not the relay check fuel pressure shodlbe 9-13 psi auto parts rent gauge you may need an adapter as well. See pic for relay underhood item 3. If the gray wire has power then check at tank that is wire leading to pump.
