Problem overview

Some Chevrolet C1500 owners report experiencing engine shutdowns after driving approximately 60 miles, which may be attributed to several potential issues. These owners have noted that fuel pump problems could lead to inconsistent fuel delivery, causing the engine to shut down. Additionally, concerns about contaminated gas, such as the presence of dirt or water, have been reported, particularly if the issue persists despite replacing the gas filter. Clogged fuel filters are also cited as a cause, as they can restrict fuel flow even after replacement. Furthermore, electrical issues, including faulty wiring to the crankshaft position sensor or loose connections in the battery and ignition components, have been identified as possible contributors to engine shutdowns. It is advisable for owners experiencing these issues to conduct a thorough inspection of the fuel system and electrical components to identify and resolve the underlying problems.
