Hi all. I have been a lurker here for awhile but this is my first post.
The other day I drove the family from north carolina to Florida basically non stop for 13 hours. At 25 mins from my destination doing 70 the engine just turned off. Got it to the shoulder and it fired right back up but as soon as I accelerated it died again. Did this about 6 more times then I had it towed.
First place told me rear main seal was leaking badly and caused oil starvation and it seized. They also said intake mani gasket was gone. Needless to say they couldn't do this kind of job at their shop so shop 2 says I have a fuel starvation issue and that I need a new fuel pump and filter.
The only symptoms that I can relate are an occasional stumbling and if I am driving very slowly 5 - 10 mph the engine will sometimes cut off but immediately fire back up on its own.
Please help.
