Is the fuel filter empty when it cuts out?
Is the butterfly in the inlet opening up? but you should not have to bleed it if this is the fault.
You good crack the nut on top of the fuel filter housing and see if your getting a good flow of fuel out when the engine is cranked over (17mm or 19mm nut)

Watch out Me MPuk is about full of s**t and never seen a van in his life.

Probably blocked fuel filter but you don't give any info of year or engine.
