engine kills when shifting

Hello,

When I shift the engine kills. When I let out the clutch it starts right up.
I thought that my fuel was bad changed filter, but still happens.
Any ideas.
Thank you,
'89 F350 4X4 7.3

Does it do it when the clutch is pushed in anytime........ stops, cornering etc. If so then there is a TSB for that problem. Relates to dirt/crud/ slime in the IP.

If you would like the TSB....

click on my name and PM me your email addy.... Use subject: TSB IP

A good strong dose of Diesel Kleen may fix your stalling issue.
