I have a 99 Quest, so under the hood there there is a bit of difference. I also had a hiccup some time ago but it was corrected with a new set of ignition wires - EGR valves can also cause problems when hot.
Most of the problems with my version seem to revolve around the distributor, but again, unlike mine,your distributor and coil are two separate units as far as I know.
Visit this old site:Villager & Quest FAQs (check the subtopics) and see if you can find something that helps.
Proceed with caution before you start changing parts. It gets expensive real quick.

hey, thanks for the link to that website. i looked under "low speed miss" and it might be that i need to take the car to my friends auto shop and hook up the car to the scope-thing to see if there is any arcing happening in the ignition wires or coil. i've recently replaced the distributor rotor and cap so it's not that. well, i think i have a good idea what to do now. thanks for the help.
