ANY IDEAS OUT THERE??? IT HAS JUST OVER 45,000 MILES IT IS A 4.3 LITRE..I WILL BE GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 60 AND IT JUST STOPS RUNNING...IF I LET OFF THE GAS IT WILL CATCH AND THEN IT CHATTERS A WHILE TRYING TO GET GOING AS I PUMP THE GAS PEDAL....ALMOST LIKE IM OUT OF GAS...BUT THEN IT WILL CATCH AND RUN FINE FOR MAYBE A WEEK OR MORE OR IT WILL DO IT AGAIN THE NEXT DAY....NEVER ACTUALLY STOPS RUNNING THAT I HAVE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, BUT FROM 60 DOWN TO MAYBE 30 MPH BEFORE IT STARTS TO RUN AGAIN..HIT THE GAS PEDAL EASY AND IT WILL SPEED UP BUT YOU PUNCH IT IT JUST DIES...HAD IT ON THE COMPUTER OF COURSE NOTHING SHOWS, REPLACED THE BATTERY NO DIFFERENCE, ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE...HAVE THOUGHT IT MAY BE A FUEL FILTER BLOCKAGE OR MAYBE THE FUEL PUMP OR IS THERE SOME OTHER RELAYS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT? REALLY DONT THINK IT IS THE INJECTORS OR COMPUTER...

ITS BEEN DOING THIS FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW BUT STARTING TO GET WORSE..USED TO DO IT ABOUT EVERY MONTH OR SO NOW ALOT MORE OFTEN...NO I NEVER HAVE CHANGED THE FUEL FILTER...DO YOU THINK I MIGHT BE A GOOD PLACE TO START?? I HATE TO START REPLACING THINGS COULD GET COSTLY AND NOT FIX THE PROBLEM...THE ENGINE LIGHT DOESN'T COME ON AND I DONT LOSE ANY OF THE ELECTRICAL WHEN IT HAPPENS..(lights,gauges ect.)
