Could my car just die at 60 mph from a relay going bad?

Could it more likely be something else, and could that code be e generated by trying to start the truck a few times afterwards?

if the fuel system were suspect would not OBD code not have been generated for a problem? Ie: fuel pump relay or Pump, or fuel injector?

97 Toyota 4Runner,
I got 0340 ( camshaft position sensor "A" circuit ) from the OBD tester.

The belts are all tight. ( And all there). And I have spark to the plugs, (pulled one and tested)

You can bet with that code, you need an ignition module or a cam sensor, distributor.

Sure can. If the pump relay quits working while your driving it will shut the engine down
idle air CONTROLLER, bad or TPS sensor not adjusted right or bad, throttle cable in bind or gas pedal
