Remove the engine cover inside the van and locate the distributor. Inside the distributor is a sensor which will activate your fuel pump. Also locate the oil pressure switch which will also give power to the fuel pump. One of these should do it and both are very easy to access and replace from under the inside engine cover.

Car ran out of gas five feet before pump now it will not start with gas in it just spins over towed home shoot car between head lights?
Is it injected or carburated? If it's injected, turn the ignition on a couple times, let it sit for a few seconds while the fuel pump runs. When the fuel pump turns off, turn the ignition off again then after a couple seconds turn it back on. Repeat this procedure a few times while the fuel is pushed through the line, then it should start. If the engine is carburated, use starting fluid to get the engine running for a couple seconds. Shoot a little (about 2 seconds) starting fluid down the carburetor while someone else cranks the engine. When the engine starts, let it run until it starts to die then give it a little more fluid. Do that a couple times while the fuel is pumped through the line. If nothing is broken it should run after a couple hits of starting fluid. Be careful with that stuff though, it can burn you if you get it on you and the car backfires.
