Truck starts fine but intermittently will stall suddenly?

Hi:

Based on your description, I suspect the crankshaft position sensor is failing. What happens is this. When the sensor starts to fail, it is adversely affected by heat. This can cause the engine to lose ignition spark and stall. Then, you need to wait until it has a chance to cool before it will restart.

Take a look through this link. It explains the most common symptoms of a faulty crankshaft position sensor. Read through it to determine if it mirrors what you experience.

If you determine it needs to be replaced, here is a link to get you started. It explains in general how one is replaced.

If you look below, I included the directions specific to your vehicle for replacement.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,

joe
