Every few days the thing just dies. The outside temperature doesn't seem to have anything to do with it. After it dies, it cranks well but doesn't seem to fire. After sitting for about 5 minutes it will start right up and then run fine for another few days. This truck isn't used very often and it doesn't die like this each time I use it.

It has a 302 with an auto transmission.
