Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I decided I would pursue the AFM modification so I purchased a 50v(no 25v available) 22MFD tatalium? capacitor and soldered it onto pins 2(+) and 4(-) on the AFM harness. 90 miles into the trip the van would "bog down" (no power when I accelerated) as I was doing about 70mph. This lasted about 2 miles then it went away. I was able to get to my destination 90 more miles down the road and no tow truck. :-) So, I'm at a loss. I just pray that I am able to get home without any problems. I will check all my ground connections and do a tune-up when I get back. I'll keep you all posted.
