You sure you haven't got them connected back up the wrong way round?

You need the crank sensor connected. As I said before you've probably got them the wrong way round.

If speedo jumped with wires other way round, then you probably had them correct to start with, yes the van will always start without the crank sensor being connected, just wont stay running, As said yesterday, if it was ok til doing the flywheel, and the sensor or wiring wasnt damaged at all, it still sounds like the flywheel isnt giving the sensor a signal, or its an incorrect signal.

As for the speedo wire (speed sensor in the gearbox), It should start without it, just wont drive very well, however, start-idle for a few seconds-stall, still sounds like crank sensor (or flywheel) as thats exactly what would happen if you unplugged it on a running van.
