My truck keeps dying while im driving it. The engine dies, and all the electrical dies too, but then 10 minutes later it starts right back up. I think it might be either the starter cylinoid or the fusable link (But if it was either of those I dont think my truck would start at all!) Or possibly the fuel filters or even the fuel pump, but im not sure. There is some slight hesitation in the acceleration. Any thoughts?

I just replaced the ignition switch a week ago, because it would not start sometimes but it starts fine now. Is it possible I did not install it correctly?
