ONE OTHER THOUGHT, POSSIBLE THAT THIS IS THE ORIGINAL BATTERY IN THIS THING ALTHOUGH HE SAYS IT HAS BEEN WORKING GOOD. RECENTLY TURNED VERY COLD HERE THO.. WOULD A WEAK BATTERY CAUSE A RUN PROBLEM?
SOURCE: Dies after running about 2 minutes
It's got all the symptoms of a leak in the fuel line. You may want to start backward at the tank and work your way all the way to the carb to find it but it would be surprising if it was something else. All the best.

SOURCE: battery light on; then the instrument cluster goes
may be a bad alt check voltage while running should be about 14 volts
SOURCE: Ford 460 loses power then dies. Starts back up. Idles fine.
It sounds like you might have a clogged catalatic converter on the exhaust system.

Quick note.. was running good before, no problems.gas has 1/4 or better in it, seafoam added periodically. Temp when it failed in the upper 20's, no check engine light at all. Checkd the battery, is a Motorcraft, says 6/04 on the case, he says he has never changed it. Engine RPM normal at the very first startup, goes up good, then starts to drop, in short order it max's out at about 2400 RPM
