Still Quits

After Replacing the entire fuel system, tank, hoses, pump, filters and carb it still quits. Now to start with the ignition. Driving down the road and it just completely dies. This truck is the anti Christ.

Can you give a little more info ion the truck and what is happening, is it running for a while and then cuts out?

I would suspect the ignition module.

i would suspect the ignition module as well.once they heat up they quit.take your module in and have it tested,if it's good one less thing to look at,if it's bad go buy a motocraft one.

They can test them? Who can do that? It must be the module for everything else is new cap, rotor, plugs, coil, wires. It would figure it's the module for it will be the very last thing I replace.

The truck just completely shuts down and will restart almost immediately after you pull over and sometimes if you just put it in neutral and turn the key it fires right back up. Makes me want to put this style ignition in my airplane

Dose it sputter or shut off real quick like?

If it shuts off real quick like its something ignition, however ignition module typical wont restart "immediately after".

If it sputters, and you already replaced everything inline fuel lines pumps etc. Id check the relay's, and oil pressure switch.
