After posting on this thread, Murphy came a knocking!

I've had two cut offs in the past 3 days. Both times the truck fires right back up. One happened when coming off the highway. 75mph down to 0, at the stop light truck just died.

Today, I'm ideling in line to enter a gate, truck died. Torque didn't show anything off the second time.

Both times it started right up. Installed a dark blue CPS (FoMoCo) in June when I realize my started had failed. I took out a light grey.

I believe I'll put a lite grey back in the truck and see how it goes...

Nevertheless, let me know your experience because I'm now chasing your problem.

I made a 100 mile round trip this past weekend in 100+ degree temps and no issues. "knocks on wood".

I'm hoping the IPR fixed it. I have a light gray backup CPS but I've heard some bad things about them so I'm gonna stick with the blue unless I have some issues. May order another blue as well. When I was looking to change it came more highly recommended than the gray and my truck has been running really well until that hiccup
