---snipped--- The van can now start up ok, rather quick for the cold weather, but then it runs pretty weak. --- end snipped---

Before you open the engine up, be certain that your spark plug wires were on the correct cylinders. If the passenger side, for example, were switched, you would get an engine that would run fine at start, but would kick and buck, and feel like it was going to break off the engine mounts on acceleration.

Good luck.
