What is your question?
Just had new distributor,new spark plug and wires installed, a coil, and a new MAF too. The auto service place said they came up with these codes; P0101, PO300B, and P0765A. Also had the throttle cleaned. Van will start, but die, within 5 minutes. After it dies it wont start again. Also idles rough.

The following MUST be performed! .. Crankshaft Position Variation Relearn > since the distributor was replaced .. Fuel pressure test - with both engine on then engine off to check for pressure leak down .. There can not be any air leaks in the big air intake tube that goes to the throttle body - NO LEAKS AT ALL! .. It must be in place and securely tightened with ALL hoses attached! I have no idea what the complete story is here .. You 'may' need to find a mechanic that's more familiar with the 4.3L air induction and fuel delevery systems as well as the crank position relearn... (High dollar - professional quality scanner IS required!!) Good luck with it!
They did do the testing/relearn on crank sensor,just saw it on the paper work, and they said the fuel pressure was ok. This whole mess started, during heavy rain, and my van wouldn't start. I finally got it started after a few tries, but the next day wouldn't start at all.Went to one mechanic, who replaced the coil, and distributor. Van ran horrible afterwards, stalling, loosing power, or just plain dying while driving ( not fun!) Took it to a different mechanic, they put in new plugs, wires, MAF, and they cleaned the throttle. Last Friday driving on the highway, slowly lost acelleration, and van died. waited half hour and it started up again, but still poor acelleration, and stalling. It was raining pretty heavy that day to. Brought it back to the mechanic, who said I needed a new serpentine belt. got that done. Said he came up with codes, PO3OOB, PO765A. Befor the no start situation my van ran perfect. Now I'm out over $1500 bucks, and a van that dosen't work at all.
I would need the van present with the proper testing equipment hooked up and do some test plus visual inspection before I could advise further .. There are just too many possibilities to offer a guess. pushrod, VA.
