turn my ignition.  The van wont start . I tried to plug it into a battery
charger and it started and died again. When i tried to restart it it was

It sounds like your alternator may be dead. The car clicks on start because battery is low charge. When car starts it drains the battery because alternator is not supplying power and car dies.
