Hey guys, so i loaned my 88 f150 to my sister for a little while, they were having a hard time and needed another vehicle. Well it will start and drive, but will randomly die, sometimes it will start back up, other times it will not and will take a while to start again. From what she has explained it seems like it gets warmed up before it dies. Any suggestions what this could be? I don't have much time to work on it so any ideas for me would be great. I've checked some basic things but am not sure. Could it be a ignition control module? coil starting to go out? It has a new distributor. Any help would be great!
351w automatic transmission.

 

check codes for sure i dont have the link of how to check but someone can give it you. or do a search for codes. I would star there its free and easy

 

found the link get codes then post them someone can help

The ignition control module can cause this, it can be tested before you buy a new one. Checking for codes first is always a good idea, but the ICM usually doesn't cause a code.

 

Ok. No codes. I replaced module. Still doing same thing. No lose wires found. Any other ideas?

 

Before you waste any more money, next time it dies see if it isn't getting spark or fuel.

 

Mine was doing that and I replaced the coolant temp. sensor and the AIT Sensor, been working fine since.
