Yeah check the fuel pump. if it is electric listen for the humm when the key
is turned to the on position but dont start motor, if it is mechanical than

What happened while I was in the rig was this: Driving down the road at
around 30 mph and the engine just cut out without warning. No noises, other
symptoms or anything --just stopped running while driving down the road.
The battery seemed fine as the lights were all strong/bright and the engine
would crank fine but not fire. I checked all the wires I could find and
everything was tight and in excellent condition visually.
