Does the engine (A) suddenly die as if no electrical power is being distributed? If so I would say it is your HALL PICK-UP. The hall pick-up is found inside your distributor under the cap & rotor. Its purpose is to break up the magnetic field that your distibutor creates as it cycles.My guess at a price would be approximately 30 to 50 bucks Does the engine (B) sputter....and sputter...and then die as if being starved? Then I would suspect a clogged fuel filter. Simply crawl under the truck and replace the fiter. Pricewise my guess would be 10 to 20 bucks.

Your Chevy G20 dayvan will travel for over an hour ok but when you turn engine off and try to restart it wont start leave it for afew ours then it starts fine why?
