Sounds like a problem within the PCM. Someone with the proper equipment will have to test. If he starts again after cooling suspect a heat issue.

Check around all the connections around and hooked to the PCM Make sure there is no green corrosion present.

My 1992 Ford Explorer starts. But when I press on the gas pedal it just jerks and shuts off.
