My truck keeps cutting off, it will drive fine, then the rpm will drop and the truck will cut off. Let it sit for 10 or so mins and it will start up. Drive maybe 5-15 miles and then it will do the same thing again. Tried 93 gas and i depressed the fuel value in the engine and no fuel, not a drop and no air came out.
