I have changed spark plugs, wires, distributor cap, coil, air filters, fuel filters, and even a fuel pump. It still acts likes it doesn't want to crank and sometimes while running it shuts off. I hold the gas down a little and it cranks sometimes. I am wondering is the problem is a spark issue. Do you think the distributor is bad? I am not fed up just kinda sour from spending all of that money and the problem isn't fixed. If anybody knows what the problem is please help me.

I had an 89 dodge ram 150 conversion van with the 318 in it that did that. It was the ignition relay close to the base of the steering col um. A metal rod connected to it from the ignition switch...the rod ran along the bottom of the col om down to the ignition relay. It was a cinch to replace and it never bothered me again.

It's broken.
But seriously, take it to a garage. If you called a mechanic, they would tell you to bring it in. It's hard to diagnose problems over the Internet/phone.

When my van, like yours did this.. it was the ignition box on the firewall going out, I changed it myself and have'nt had any more problems.
