Subject:Van stopped running

All, I was driving the kids to school today and my 87 GL started slowing
down, no dash lights, no throttle response.  Just like being out of gas
except no surging or sputtering.  Just to be safe, I put in 5 gallons, a
shot of ether, crank it over, but it won't stay running.  contacts on fuel
pump r clean also.  Anyone know of a component failure that would shut me
down like this?  l'n thinking bad fuel pump as it ran on pure ether.
