found my problem. i have 319k on the truck and its been great. i wash the motor about every 15-20k to keep it clean and dirt free. found that i had a bad seal at the computer and it had water in it. took the comp out and cleaned terminals, reinstalled and im back up and running. it took 300 plus miles for the problem to happen but never the less it did. i ran all the normal diags. and was beating my head against a wall just you r. hope this might help ya a little. good luck
