A 1988 Vanagon may crank but not fire in hot weather due to heat-related issues affecting the ignition or fuel systems. Common culprits include a failing ignition coil, which can become heat-sensitive, or vapor lock in the fuel system, where the fuel evaporates before reaching the engine. Additionally, the fuel pump may struggle to deliver adequate pressure in high temperatures. Checking these components can help diagnose the problem.
Check the Altenator
A faulty crank sensor can do that.

does the vehicle crank at all or does it not do anything>: If the vehicle dose not crank be sure to have your headlights OFF. I know that this is a problem in my 1988 Z24.
Yes if it had one, however it uses a pick up coil inside the distributer
