Random shut off

1997 f250 7.3, I've replaced the CPS sensor multiple times, last one I replaced I bought from the Ford dealership then I decided it can't be that, I've replaced the neutral safety switch on the trans because I've heard that could cause it, it doesn't shut off on me driving (so far) but in park or neutral while running it does shut off. It has fuel in the system and I've traced wires from the cps sensor and cleaned the connectors in the same harness as the cps sensor, I've also replaced the battery cable harness.

Not blowing any fuses?
Just shuts off and will start back up?
