I had the above error in my Astro van 1996 Vortex 4.3 L
I simply looked under the Hood, while soembody was cranking,,,and Noticed sparks coming out of the Coil Pak, or Coil Wire.....

I like to always report what the Problem,, and SOLUTION was in all events to Help others on the Forum ....

I had somebody, Turn the Key start, while looking at the Ignition system,, and we saw High Intensity sparks jumping around the COIL,,

The COIL, on the 1996 Astro van,, 78,000 Miles and Coil wire were replaced,,and that Solved it..

A good scan tool will tell you what the codes mean right on the readout screen. This site has the descriptions of each code: http://www.obd-codes.com/index.php

I have the same code reading....I've replaced the coil, cap and rotor haven't changed the wire yet. what else could it be?
