Default 97 psd dies when warm

i have a 97 7.3 psd, and everytime it gets up to operating temperature, it dies and will not restart until it is cool, then it fires right up. im at a lost. i know its something electrical, i just dont know how to find it. someone said something about a fuel shut off relay or breaker but thats the closest thing i have gotten to an answer so far. any input would be greatly appreciated. thanks

Don't waste your time looking for a fuel shut off......

It's got a mechanical pump.


I have seen the fuel tank selector valve crap out and cause a no-start, but not a temperature-related stall.

First things first....

Does your tachometer needle move while cranking when it dies and won't restart?

Injector orings? When the oil gets hot it thins out and looses oil pressure to the injectors.
