maybe the wrong size battery is in and maybe a fuse or wire problem

We do not have wiring diagrams here a fixya. All this type of material is copy protected and not free to share. You can access the factory repair books here for a small change.

If you are sure the fuse for that circuit is good, I would check the socket for power and ground.

You can get a free wiring diagram and fusebox layouts at Autozone.com. Just register your truck on their site.If you look at the wiring diagrams you should see that the starter lockouts and shift interlock is a separate process. Neutral is a position which allows the starter to work.What you are having problems with is the RUN circuit on the ignition side. You could have a bad ignition switch. The switch should have an Ignition Relay in the Powerbox. If this is the Diesel, they have a KILL circuit to stop the engine that is different than a gas engine since the Diesel fires by compression.So looking at your wiring diagram, you would be looking for a connector or component which could cut out intermittently. I am thinking more of a Relay because you have to reengerize the circuit by turning the ignition switch to OFF, before going to CRANK, and then RUN. Most of the time, the starter interlock only controls the start circuit.Another possibility is the Antitheft. If the KEYreader loses communication with the Security system, it may stall. I know that vehicles will not start without the correct key or if an unprogrammed Blank is inserted. I hope my solution helps.

Seems like a fuel supply problem... additional fuel is added through the injectors when the engine is cold (running slightly rich) and then when it comes up to temperature or pre-set time period through the Electronic Control Unit (brain), the engine dies. Each time you shut off the car and restart it, the injectors receive extra fuel. My guess is partially clogged fuel injectors. Take the car to a Bosch Service Center and have them cleaned... its far cheaper than buying new. Change the fuel filter too! Hopefully, the fuel injection system pump is not bad (not the same as the fuel pump) as these are expensive. Get a rebuilt one, if you need a new one. Recommend Denso Iridium spark plugs to get a cleaner burn, better gas mileage, and longer service life.

Fuel injection circut malfunction.
How many cylinders

This is the same problem I had with my F350 Super Duty. I had taken mine to the shop and 700.00 dollars later still no fix but I found a smart mechanic that told me about the "crank shaft sensor" located in the front of the engine about half way up. Its only 2 bolts but a bit of a ****** to get to. I paid $40.00 for the part and it fixed my problem. Just a bit of a warning~~my trucked started out with the "bucking"and such then graduated to completely dieing on the freeway so be careful.This is actually a Ford re-call on some makes and models. Good Luck! Hope this helps!
