97 F150 4.6 Died!! :(
This truck has 200k miles on it, but was going just fine up the road and it just stopped running. No missing, no hesitation.. It just stopped running like someone turned the key off. When you try to start it, it doesnt even act like it wants to fire at all. It spins over fine. Im pretty sure its not a broke timing chain because it would atleast stutter or something because of the other chain. If you have any idea's for me, please help me out. I've already bought another truck because I really needed one. (05 F150 4.6 ) Thanks

An abrupt and sudden shut down is usually electrical.
The first sensor to generate reference to everything else is the crank position sensor.
The second one is the cam position sensor.
Check to see if a plug has come off, if no then check the sensor operation by either a back probing with a meter while cranking/and/or measureing their resistance for being open or shorted.
If nothing found, next place to go is the fuse boxes, then back to the engine for other posibilities in progressive order.
With a sudden shut down and no previous conditions, there may not be any code set but it dosn't hurt to look and see.
