Default No power! Please help!

I have a 1991 f150 nite 4x4 automatic with a 351 single cab short bed. I've had this truck for a few months and it's ran amazing. I was driving home last week and I gave it gas and it hit about 4000 rpm and lost all power then picked it self up and drove fine and it happened 3 more times right after and then it lost everything. No ignition power. No crank no fuel pump no click no radio no beeping nothing. I can cross the solenoid and it cranks but no start. I have changed the solenoid, the ignition switch, the neutral safety switch, fuel pump relay and still nothing. Please help!

Do your headlights come on. If they do you might have a fusible link that runs to the starter that is blown. It happened to my old 87 Chevy Blazer.

I would chase the wire coming off the starter to the firewall to see if there is any power . On my Chev there was a block on the firewall that ran to the starter that had a fusible link in it.

Get out your test light. Test every fuse, including the ones in the power distribution box. Do you have power to the ignition switch ?
