Will be running fine then just shuts down. Doesn’t hit at all when trying to restart
Both times it has happened will restart about 1 hour later. Made it back to ramp last time then died as soon as L got it on the trailer
any ideas ?

Is the fuel pump running when you turn the key OFF and then BACK ON (right after it quits)?

what is your batt voltage while running down the lake , is it over 14.5 volts ???? some ECUs are fickle about voltage

Not sure on the voltage will have to check

I thought about that, but usually if the Cummins ECU shuts down for high-voltage, the engine will restart right away and repeat the process.
Probably wise to replicate and see if the fuel pump is running (engine off... just turn key on) WHEN this occurs and the engine won't restart.
If so, it's quite possible you have a bad driver in the ECU.
