The issue seemed to start when the weather was wet/damp. The van would not want to start right away. Then would seem to be missing until got warmed up. This past weekend we had a lot of rain. Monday it barely started and made it approximately a quarter of a mile then quit. Now will not turn over. Have some spark going to coil pack. No codes are showing either on odometer or diagnostic tool.

Good morning.

Some spark? can you explain?

I would start with checking the fuel pressure to be sure you have fuel going to the engine.

Then spark test.

Lastly, a compression test to be sure there is nothing wrong internally in the engine.
