My 06 f150 4x4 has died about 7 times in 2 days. Tried resetting pulling the battery cable an left it off all last night. Drove fine today until about 4pm, then it died again. It only happens when I stop or petty much idle. No Check engine light, i have had it hooked up to a computer, an no result shows up any ideas.

Replying to the fact that your truck is running good again. Have you pressure sprayed your motor lately? If so it could be the spark plugs. The Tritan motors design settles the water into the spark plugs. So it'll run like crap until the water is evaporated, and cause the vehicle to kill randomly. Note: this could sometimes, but not always burn out the coils, but if your truck is not missing it should be just fine

That's just what happend to me it could be something else

I haven't really gave the whole thing a bath yet, however I probably do need to change the spark plugs an wires on it, and change the oil/filter. I'm probably going to go on a 4-5 day non stop trip with no particular place to go. An I don't want it to be breaking down.
