89 F250 Engine Shuts Off
Hello,
Need some help in understanding and fixing my gas F250. The engine (175,000 miles) runs great but sometimes while on the freeway, it shuts off. It goes out and I have to pull over and try to restart it. Seems after about 6 trys, it starts and off I go. Just wondering if anyone has had the same problem. I can't find a pattern like it shutting off at a certain rate of speed etc...
Thanks
Federico

I would go through and check your ignition system... maybe in the solenoid or a grounded out wire somewhere... check and make sure the battery ground is solid and tight, had a problem in my car with a loose ground and it took me days to find out all i needed to do was tighten a bolt... good luck to you, someone on here should have a good answer for you
