I have a Grand Voyager with a 3.0 V6, the vans engine stops after driving about 20 to 40 miles.I have gone thru and did a tune up, flushed the radiator and replaced the thermostat. The van does not over heat, but when it gets warm and on hotter days it acts up sooner then on cooler days. No one has been able to tell me what is wrong with it. Can you please help? Thanks.

Next time it refuses to start do below to determine if its fuel or spark that's causing it

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
