I recommend cylinder compression testing. Weak compression could cause this condition.

The blower resistor has gone bad which is why you lost blower speeds.This may have been caused by the blower motor drawing too much power. At this point I would verify that no fuses burned out and then check the pigtail plugs going to the resistor and blower motor to make sure the connectors and connections are not melted or wiring is frayed. These connectors are located in the engine compartment on the passenger side. After checking this and if everything appears ok then the blower motor itself has probably gone bad and needs replaced. I would also replace the blower motor resistor as well. If the connectors appear damaged replace or repair as needed .

Check your fuel pressure at idle and under a load, if there is a fluxuation greater than 2lbs you should check for a bad fuel filter and then the pump return line.

Check for fuel delivery problem by spraying starting fluid into the intake and observing whether it starts for a few seconds or not. If it does start, and dies, then the fuel pump may be at fault. If it doesn't start at all, check for spark with a spark tester off of one of the spark plug wires.

CHECK TO SEE IF YOUR COMPUTER AREA AND CONNECTORS IS GETTING WET,WINDSHEILD OR DOOR SEAL MAY BE LEAKING IN

don't have a diagram but this van is notorius for the vacuum lines than run on top of the front of the engine(by alternator going over upper intake) cracking or breaking assuming you have a 4.3l. hope this helps.please rate helpful.

You have a bad heater core it is located in the passenger side dash module , and it will fog the windshield with a film of coolant

As the Astro is on a truck frame I would think it would be quite simple there should only be 4 to 6 bolts holding it on. You should be able to replace it your self.

sounds like you have either a bad head gasket or a cracked head

An easy driveway job. Disconnect battery, crawl under truck, disconnect wiring to starter, remove two bolts holding starter up 9/16, and remove.

Does the van have an alarm? If so it sounds like it is going into the start kill mode. Disable the alarm by looking for the brain which is probably under the dash and just unplug it.

check to see if the alt. is actually grounding to the engine and battery, run the vehicle and check voltage at battery, should be 14.5 volts or so if not run a ground from alternator to battery, then run a live

I would check the air cleaner and replace it just to start...
What you are saying sounds like a faulty injector that is stuck open... But a plugged up air cleaner could do this too...

In your fuse box. May be under the hood or drivers side floor area.
