Finally found out what the problem is, after all those years replacing parts.

i now had code 32 and code 42 with no SES light. code 32 for the EGR.
Well some smart guy gave me a Intake manifold gasket with the EGR port blocked off, so that is the reason why i have no power

and the code 42 for the "EST". Well that is out of the way now as i found out that my ground wire attached to the head on the driver side was dirty and about ready to break.

Also my new MSD ignition coil was also faulty which didn't help the cause

My next project will be to replace the intake manifold gasket one last time.

the O2 sensor has been replace and the van no long stalls at the red light or stop sign on cold or hot running condition.

Also the timing was off by 2 degrees and it now smells like a real V8 motor. it no longer smell rich

FInally. ALL that time, it was a bad ground wire. DAMN :yellin: :rolleyes: :butthead:

Currently working on Part 2 for my video of Phantom rebel. :D
