The vehicle died while turning a corner. Replaced the coil, fuel regulator module, and also the cam module. Thought the problem was fixed, but definitely wasn't. The van will start and run for awhile and then when the rpm's are reduced, will sometimes die. It may start back up immediately, and then maybe not at all for awhile. We have been stranded more than once. We are at our wits end. Can anyone that has experienced the same problem, please respond so we will know what to do next? Thanks so much, as we would appreciate it more than you know!
