97 f-250 shuts off when you accelerate
It starts fine when driving an come to a stop an then accelerate it will just shut off an it will start right back up every time. I can hold the brake an accelerate an let off the brake an it's fine. If I am hooked to a trailer there is no problem at all does not shut off at all. Does anyone have any ideas.

My 97 Powerstroke had similar problem. Turned out the resistor pot in the accelerator pedal had a bad spot. When the computer saw the aberrant reading it shut down. I replaced the accelerator pedal and the problem stopped. Don't know if this is your problem, but its fairly simple to check of you have a VOM.
