I have a 200 f150 XLT lariat and it has 105,000 miles on it. It has never given me any trouble and I have put every mile on it. This morning I was going down the road and the engine just cut off. It cranked right back up but it did it again about 10 minutes later. COuld this be a fuel filter proble. The lights and radio never went off, the engine just stopped.

I would suspect a fuel related issue or igntions.

Have you noiticed the fuel pump running mroe each time you turn the key? If so it is bad and is running longer to prime up the engine to start it.

I would have the fuel pressure checked and see if it drops down.
