1992 Dodge Caravan 6 cyl

I have a dodge caravan that started to lose power
all of a sudden. I have chaecked the converter and it is not stopped up. I have replaced the coil , of course that wasnt it. I at one point could hear the fuel pump come on but now it is random. I have also changed relays. It will start and run great for up to
30 seconds to a minute then quit, I dont know what to check now, or just start with replacing parts,
beginning with the fuel pump. Could it be the fusible
link, I have tried to find a diagram for this and I have
had no luck. I NEED HELP
THANKS
ALAN

Welcome to the forum, any codes? You should be able to get some codes by cycling the ignition switch. On--off, on--off, on, you just cycle key till dash lites come on, no further. The check engine lite starts flashing, you count the flashes to get the codes. Your looking for two digit codes, a code 24 would be two quick flashes, a slight pause, then four quick flashes. Between codes, there will be a slightly longer pause. Also, use a gage and check fuel pressure.
