Hi, it is a 3 litre engine, 167,000 km on it. I am in the process of installing a new fuel pump as of wednesday. Hope this does the trick

If you have time check your compression, those 3 litres water pump leaks and sometimes causes the the timing belt to jump. Before replacing parts I would verify if your losing spark or fuel pressure when condition is present. Ive seen some odd things with these minivans including the flywheel cracking causing it to flex and miss.
