1999 dodge ram 1500 5.2 dies while driving

I have changed crankshaft sensor and coil pick-up new distributer and rotor. I have also new coil . it seems to quit when it is hot weather . I think i changed everthing i can think of and it still quits when it wants to. The fuel guage does not come on when it quits, after a period of time waiting 30 min. to 1 hour it cranks up and runs great untill it seems that something gets to hot and all over again. I checked fuel relay it is good .All grounds seem to be tight. Any suggestions please.

Is the check engine light on or if you turn the key to the on position 3 times does it show any codes?

Dodges have a high rate of failure in the engine ecu. If you can find you 5v supply that feeds the sensors. Ohm it to ground If it dose ohm out (shorted to ground) unplug your ecu and recheck.

Are you getting power to the coil on the dark green wire with the orange stripe? The relay must have power to the coil and also to the contact. If yes, then problem might be with the crankshaft position sensor.
