I am the original owner of a 1988 F-150, 300 manual trans. Once every year or so, while driving at around 50 m.p.h., the engine will just die. It will not restart until the engine totally winds down to a stop. Then, it will either start when the clutch engages or with the starter. It's never left me stranded (yet) so I just roll with it...

Same thing happened to me on my '82 and drove me crazy for two weeks until I replaced the ignition module mounted on the fender. Took 15 minutes and solved my problem.
