Sounds like it's not getting fuel. Could the tank be empty? Frozen or plugged fuel filter?

1986 Buick Skylark. I crank it up every morning and when I drive on the freeway it shuts down completely and won't start back up until it cools off. What is my problem?

It might be a cooling problem such as the thermostat. I think you should get the cooling system checked. Something is causing it to overheat.

Ford Expedition starts and quickly shuts down?

We are having the same problem and my husband think is the fuel pump. Did you have a new key made for the Truck? If so that's your problem. If you need a spare key you'll have to go to your Ford dealer to have it made otherwise your vehicle will start then shut off quickly. It's just a security issue, there is a small sensor chip in the black part of the stock key.
