'96 F250 running problem

My 7.5L 1996 F250 has been shutting off randomly for about five of six months and no one has been able to solve the problem so far. It occurs generally at low RPMs and is not preceded by any shaking, vibrating or noise. I have had a few people tell me that it may be the didtributor but no mechanic had been able to confirm this or for that matter tell me anything worthwhile. Some times I have trouble sarting it when its cold but otherwise it is a good truck. If you guys have any solutions for this you have my respect forever.

Well I took it into the shop a few weeks ago and they cleaned or replaced the entire fuel system so unless they did a bad job i dont think that the problem is with the fuel.
