i have a f-150 with a 302 in it and for some reason when i drive for about 45 minutes it stalls and won't start back up. it takes awhile to get it start back up. im not sure if its overheating or what. my friend said that it could be boiling the gas when it gets to hot and thats why it wont start until it cools down. im replacing the water pump and thermostat. so im hoping this will fix my problem. if you have any ideas i would love to hear them.
