Do you hear the fuel pump come On for a few secs when you turn key to run position-If so check the fuel pressure with a gauge if its within specs. If not check fuel pump fuse and fuel pump relay.

now my van wont start unless i turn the key in the on position about 7 or 8 times, could very well be the ignition switch
