Some more info has to be provided. Conversion to…? Has it been converted to a carburetor or is it still running fuel injection?

He almost certainly means it’s a conversion van, with the high top, television, mood lights, etc.

Sounds like leaky injectors to me, but that’s just a WAG from the description.

Fuel system problem perhaps?

Flooding the cylinders when hot. Bad fuel pressure regulator and/or injectors? Coil pack(s) breaking down?
